Description

In this conversation, Dr. Cecilia Dones and I discuss the social skills we're losing as AI becomes more integrated into our lives. We explore the erosion of social norms, from AI companions joining Zoom calls without consent, endless enshitified content, to my son's generation calling AI girlfriends "clankers".Is there hope? We break down the "rage currency" that dominates media and the positive AI stories that go unheard. The biggest takeaway: as the world becomes more synthetic, "showing up" in person will become the ultimate "premium value."
