Listen "How AI Is Forcing Us to Rethink Who We Are and the Future We Want with Jeff Burningham"
Episode Synopsis
What if the biggest challenge with AI isn’t the technology, but what it’s revealing about us?
Jeff Burningham has built companies, invested in hundreds of startups, and even run for governor — but his most urgent message comes in his new book The Last Book Written by a Human: Becoming Wise in the Age of AI. He believes AI is a mirror, reflecting our values, flaws, and potential, and the real question is whether we’ll grow wise enough to handle it.
In this conversation, Jeff draws on his experiences in business, politics, and personal transformation to explore the choice between the “old game” of power and greed and the “new game” of connection and compassion — and why the next decade could determine our future.
Jeff's book, The Last Book Written by a Human: Becoming Wise in the Age of AI, is available now wherever books are sold!
