Hao argues tech governance, not CEOs, drives imperialist power concentration

Aug 15, 2026

In a Bloomberg Television interview, journalist and author Karen Hao discusses her book 'Empire of AI,' arguing that the core issue with leading AI companies is not individual CEOs but flawed governance structures that allow unchecked power. She describes the prevailing Silicon Valley culture as an 'imperialist ideology' of scaling at all costs, leading to dispossession of data, intellectual property, and labor from the global majority, akin to historical empires. Hao, who has an MIT mechanical engineering background and briefly worked in tech before becoming a reporter, acknowledges personal issues with the ideologies of top executives but stresses systemic reform over personnel swaps. The segment, conducted by Mishal Husain, probes her views on characters at the top while exploring alternatives like lower-resource AI development.

Mark Cudmore Predicts 10-Year Yields to Hit 5% Floor, 30-Year Over 6% in 2027

Aug 12, 2026

The Bloomberg segment on CPI day features Mark Cudmore arguing the US has an ongoing inflation problem but today's print (expected soft) won't worsen it much. He claims the Treasury backdrop is negative regardless, forecasting significantly higher US yields—with 5% on the 10-year as a potential floor and 30-year through 6% next year—driven by strong global and US growth plus high fiscal and private spending. Cudmore then turns bullish on the UK, noting upgraded global GDP forecasts are warranted, positive high-frequency data, and World Bank/IMF figures showing the UK reclaiming fifth place in global GDP rankings ahead of India, countering stagnation narratives. Sourcing relies on Cudmore's analysis, Bloomberg consensus mentions, recent World Bank/IMF data, and high-frequency indicators; no named outside experts or detailed models provided. The throughline is that resilient growth and spending will push yields higher and support UK outperformance despite conventional pessimism.
