Today's Poll Question: Which is a greater threat...Runaway AI or Nuclear Weapons?

Today's Poll Question at Smerconish.com: "Which is a greater existential threat, runaway AI or nuclear weapons?" Michael Smerconish explores a rapidly shifting global risk landscape, drawing on insights from New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman and former White House counterterrorism and cyber threat advisor Richard Clarke. With breakthroughs in AI capable of exposing critical software vulnerabilities—and quantum computing threatening to crack modern encryption—the conversation moves beyond theory into urgent reality. Could emerging technologies destabilize global systems faster than traditional military threats? Or do nuclear weapons remain the ultimate danger? This episode examines the stakes, the science, and why some experts believe humanity is unprepared for what’s coming next.
