Artificial intelligence is often discussed in terms of productivity, jobs, and economic growth. But the deeper question is a human one: Will AI help us become more fully human?

In this episode of The Economist Next Door, Dr. Paul Mueller brings together three guests to examine AI from different angles. They discuss how entrepreneurs, programmers, and educators are using AI today—and wrestle with the harder questions surrounding technology, work, creativity, and human purpose.

Will AI free people to pursue more meaningful work, or will it weaken the habits and relationships that make us human? Can artificial intelligence serve as a tool for human flourishing, or will it encourage dependence and disengagement?

Listen to this thought-provoking conversation on the economic and moral questions surrounding one of the most transformative technologies of our time.
