Professor Panayiotis Roumeliotis's book argues that Artificial Intelligence (AI) is not just another technology, but a holistic power multiplier that reshapes the international system, simultaneously affecting economic productivity, geopolitical power, and the way wars are fought.

It is one of the most comprehensive and in-depth efforts to analyze AI not as a technical phenomenon, but as a geoeconomic and geostrategic tool. Unlike most technological treatises in circulation, Roumeliotis's work examines AI from the perspective of international relations. It raises questions that touch on the very core of power.

Geopolitical analysis is the strongest point of the book. Professor Roumeliotis shows that AI has already become the central axis of the US-China rivalry. The book has undeniable advantages. It combines technology, economics, geopolitics, and strategy in a cohesive narrative, offering rich empirical material and critical analysis.

There are few authors, not only in Greece but internationally, who can synthesize such different fields of knowledge with such clarity and breadth. The clarity of writing and the quality of analysis make Roumeliotis's work a useful tool for university professors, political analysts, journalists, students, and those involved in national decision-making.
