In just a few short years, artificial intelligence has moved from a promising research frontier to a powerful global force—reshaping culture, policy, infrastructure, economics, creativity, and daily life in ways we are only beginning to grasp. AI is hyped, feared, celebrated, and misunderstood. And beyond the headlines and predictions, it raises deeper questions about meaning, identity, and what it is to be human in a rapidly shifting world.

Let’s explore AI as a complex phenomenon emerging from—and now profoundly influencing—our entangled civilization. Let’s ask: How might AI reshape our understanding of intelligence? How might AI change our experience of embodiment, meaning, and relationship? What hopes, fears, or metaphors are we projecting onto our machines?

This conversation will be free-form, which means it might meander into adjacent topics. No need to prepare or bring anything but your curiosity and an open mind.
