About this episode

Philosopher Joe Vukov discusses the implications of AI on human dignity and the spiritual dangers of technological optimism.

This is our unabridged interview with Joe Vukov. What if AI’s greatest revelation isn’t about technology at all — but about us? Philosopher Joe Vukov joins Lee C.
