About this episode
LEAP Conference in Saudi Arabia An earlier conversation on Thursday's "Sound of Ideas" featured an expert from the Middle East Institute talking about how the growth of artificial intelligence is reshaping the economy of Middle Eastern countries, and how the U.S. war on Iran is impacting the region's ambitions to become an AI hub. Host Stephanie Haney spoke with a Cleveland professor and our resident tech-guru who recently traveled to the Middle East to attend the biggest technology conference in the world, LEAP, in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, joining an estimated 200,000 other attendees.
