Have you ever chatted with customer support, only to realize halfway through that it wasn't a person? That split-second drop in your stomach — when the replies feel right but not real — might be the defining digital wellness moment of our time.

In this episode, we dive into a provocative question that could shape the future of human connection: Should we all have the right to refuse AI?

As artificial intelligence quietly takes over everything from hiring to healthcare, we explore what happens when convenience starts replacing consent — and when "I want to talk to a person" becomes a radical demand.

Here's what you'll hear:

• Real-world examples of AI in daily life that you probably didn't realize you've already consented to.

• How AI is changing the way we experience empathy, trust, and human connection.

• The emerging idea of a Right to Refuse AI — what it could mean for your health, your data, and your dignity.

• Why automation might make "human interaction" the next luxury product.

• The ethical, emotional, and psychological costs of letting AI speak for us.

If you care about digital balance, human-centered technology, and wellness in the age of automation, this conversation will challenge how you think about your relationship with machines.

The right to privacy. The right to repair. The right to disconnect. Is it time we added one more — the right to refuse AI?

Listen now and discover why the most human act in the digital age might be as simple as saying, I want a person.
