In this thought-provoking episode, the explAInED team sits down with Dr. James E. Dobson of Dartmouth College to unpack the cultural, educational, and philosophical implications of artificial intelligence—especially through the lens of the humanities. From the guilt of using AI to reflections on creativity, writing, and process over product, this conversation offers a reflective and layered take on the intersection of language, learning, and machine intelligence.
