[New Episode: Penn State Dickinson Law Profiles in Leadership: Vilas Dhar]

Who holds power in the age of AI? Who’s left out? How do we build a future that centers everyone?

In the latest episode, I sat down with Vilas Dhar, President of the Patrick J. McGovern Foundation and one of the world’s leading voices at the intersection of AI, equity, and social change.

From the cornfields of Illinois to the halls of the UN, Vilas’s journey is as compelling as his mission: to reimagine technology’s role in society, embed justice into our digital infrastructure, and inspire a new generation of moral leadership.

We explored:

– AI and structural power: Who gets to shape the future?

– The evolving global AI governance landscape, including his work with the UN

– The responsibility of philanthropy in the digital age

– Leadership lessons rooted in quiet courage, moral conviction, and systems change
