Anna Goldsworthy was in conversation with Andrew Leigh on her new quarterly essay The God We Made. The Threat and Promise of Artificial Intelligence. Humanity in the age of AI . How will we be changed by the rise of artificial intelligence? In this scintillating essay, Anna Goldsworthy argues that AI is a rupture that makes us confront what it is to be human – what we do, and want. As it learns human ways, AI raises big questions about work, leisure and education. It brings new existential, social and ethical risks. Above all, it invites us to consider what is irreplaceable in us, starting with the body and the friction of others.
