The Man Who Thinks AI Could Surpass Humanity May 31, 2026

Show notes

For decades, artificial intelligence was dismissed as science fiction. Then one lab changed everything.
Inside a small London research company, scientists were teaching machines to play games, predict protein structures, and solve problems humans couldn’t. What started as an obscure AI experiment soon became the center of a global race for superintelligence — with enormous consequences for medicine, warfare, scientific discovery, and the future of human intelligence itself.
On this episode of Morning Wire, journalist Sebastian Mallaby explains how DeepMind helped launch the modern AI revolution and why its founder Demis Hassabis believes artificial intelligence could push beyond the limits of human understanding. Get the facts first with Morning Wire.

They Sold Everything. Then the Flight Was Canceled. May 30, 2026

Show notes

One of President Trump’s first major actions after returning to office was offering refuge to white South Africans who faced property seizures and racial violence at home. The decision sparked a political firestorm, but months later, many Afrikaners say their promised path to America has stalled.

Daily Wire immigration reporter Jennie Taer joins Tim Rice to discuss her investigation into the refugee program, the nonprofit at the center of the controversy, and why some refugees have been left in limbo.
