About this episode

This episode explores the practical and philosophical implications of AI with guests who actively use these tools in their work and lives.

Artificial intelligence is no longer a distant technology of the future—it is already reshaping how people work, learn, create, and solve problems. In this episode of The Economist Next Door , Paul Mueller explores the practical and philosophical questions surrounding AI with three guests — Jacob Mueller, co-founder of short-term rental management company Renjoy; Nicholas Roseveare, software engineer and developer at Revenue Solutions; and Tanner Thetford, pastor at First Baptist Church of Leadville — who are actively using these tools in their work and daily lives. The conversation goes beyond productivity gains to examine deeper questions about how humans should use AI. Like every powerful tool, the question is not simply whether we use it, but how we use it.
