Artificial Intelligence has moved from research labs into every corner of our lives—shaping economies, transforming warfare, and raising profound questions about what it means to be human. For some, AI promises extraordinary leaps in productivity, creativity, and problem-solving. For others, it evokes fears of surveillance, disinformation, and geopolitical arms races. But beyond the hype, what actually counts as “intelligence” in these machines? Are today’s Large Language Models truly thinking, or are they just sophisticated mimics of human communication?

Professor Robert C. Berwick of MIT joins Dr. Arghya Sengupta on the latest episode of Justify. Together, they step back from the daily headlines to ask:

➤ What is intelligence?

➤ How should we understand AI in relation to human cognition?

➤ And what futures—utopian or dystopian—might emerge as states and societies navigate this frontier in the international arena?
