The Rise of AI: Will it Lead to a New Thucydides Trap?

The Thucydides Trap, or Thucydides' Trap, is a term popularized by American political scientist Graham T. Allison to describe an apparent tendency towards war when an emerging power threatens to displace an existing great power as a regional or international hegemon. The increasing importance of semiconductors has led to the emergence of the US-China chip war. The initial cause of the chip war was the growing political tension between the US and China. The Chinese leaders felt that they needed to secure 'semiconductor sovereignty' to become a true economic superpower in the future.The Thucydides Trap, a concept rooted in ancient Greek history, explores the inevitability of conflict between a rising power and an established one. In this video, we analyze whether America and China can avoid this historical pitfall. Learn how this theory applies to modern geopolitics and the lessons history has to teach us."
