Is it okay to cut off a Tesla? Can you be friends with a chatbot? Should you say "please" and "thank you" to a machine? We sit down with former tech bro turned philosopher, Tobias Flattery, to explore the curious ethics of artificial intelligence, from the responsibility of its creators to how our interactions with these systems might be quietly reshaping how we treat each other. It’s a deep and essential conversation about intellectual struggle, human development, mind-boggling ethical dilemmas, and the real cost of easy answers.
