Will AI rule the world? | UpFront

Artificial intelligence has become an everyday tool for millions of people, but it remains largely unregulated. As it becomes more embedded in our homes and workplaces, concerns are growing over job losses, privacy, and the speed at which the technology is advancing. Some warn that AI’s rapid development, and the companies racing to build it, could create more risks than benefits. Others argue it could transform healthcare, education and scientific discovery for the better. So who is right? And what is the future of AI? This week on UpFront, Redi Tlhabi speaks to US Director of Control AI Connor Leahy and President of the Information Technology & Innovation Foundation Alan Eyre.

Francesca Albanese on Israeli sexual violence against Palestinians | UpFront

A recent New York Times article highlighted the sexual violence suffered by Palestinians at the hands of Israeli forces. But the allegations have been documented for years by human rights groups and Palestinian organisations. So why does the world only seem to pay attention when a Western news organisation does? This week on UpFront, Redi Tlhabi speaks with UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese about sexual violence, Israeli impunity - and the double standards of Western attention.

“A shame on the conscience of humanity” Spanish FM on Gaza and Lebanon | UpFront

Spain has been one of Europe’s most vocal critics of Israel’s war on Gaza, a stance that has put the Spanish at odds with the US and some of its other allies. The Spaniards have also renewed calls for Europe to reduce its military dependence on the US by reiterating calls for a standing European Union army. So what does it mean for Madrid’s relationship with Washington - and its place among US allies? This week on UpFront, Redi Tlhabi speaks with Spanish Foreign Minister Jose Manuel Albares about Spain’s foreign policy, its commitment to international law, and relationship with the US.

Ex-Israeli Prime Minister challenged on Israeli war on Lebanon | UpFront

This week on UpFront, Redi Tlhabi speaks with former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert, who led Israel during the 2006 Lebanon war, about Hezbollah, civilian deaths, and his assessment of the US-Israeli war on Iran.

Is Israel expanding into Gaza despite ceasefire? | UpFront

With the world focused on the war on Iran, Israel’s genocide in Gaza has slipped from the headlines. But despite a ceasefire, Israel has continued to expand its military control inside the enclave, raising fears of a more permanent occupation or even a renewed incursion. Since the 2025 ceasefire, Israeli forces have pushed beyond the so-called 'Yellow Line - the boundary meant to separate areas under Israeli control from the rest of Gaza. So what is actually happening on the ground? How far has Israel’s presence expanded? And what does it mean for Palestinians in Gaza? This week on UpFront, Redi Tlhabi speaks with Ray Adams Row Farr, editor at Forensic Architecture, about how the organisation is documenting Israel’s expanding presence and what it means for Gaza.

This week on UpFront, Redi Tlhabi speaks with Robert Pape, professor of political science at the University of Chicago and author of the upcoming book “Our Own Worst Enemies: America in the Age of Violent Populism”.

Varoufakis on Palantir, AI warfare, and the rise of tech lordism | UpFront

The doctrine has intensified debate about the growing power of Silicon Valley and its ties to militaries accused of war crimes. This week on UpFront, Redi Tlhabi speaks with economist and former Greek finance minister Yanis Varoufakis about what Palantir's manifesto really reveals, and why Varoufakis believes big tech is peddling an ideology he compares to the racial hierarchies of Nazism and apartheid.
