What is a Good Life? #184 - Resting in the Core of My Identity with Dr. Miriam Meckel
About this episode
Mark McCartney discusses the essence of being human with Dr. Miriam Meckel, exploring identity and the impact of AGI.
What does it actually mean to be human in an age racing toward AGI? In this episode of What is a Good Life? , Mark sits down with Dr. Miriam Meckel - award-winning journalist, professor of communication management at the University of St. Gallen, and founder of ada learning - to explore the question that has shaped her life's work: what is irreducibly human, and what are we at risk of losing? Miriam, the first female editor-in-chief of WirtschaftsWoche and former State Secretary for Media and International Affairs in North Rhine-Westphalia, opens up about a burnout that became a life-altering depression, the vulnerability of turning her private writing into her bestselling book Letter to My Life , and why she believes embodied experience — not intelligence — is what truly separates us from machines. It is a conversation about identity, friction, kindness, and what it takes to live a quiet, honest life.
