Is AI making you dumb?

Front Burner

About this episode

Today we’re joined by Alex Panetta, journalist and former Front Burner guest host. You may remember him as a regular on this show when he was a CBC Washington correspondent.


Alex is now on sabbatical studying artificial intelligence and has been grappling with a lot of the big questions we have been thinking about too.


So today we’re going to talk about the ways he’s been using AI in his own life and interrogating how this technology can impact our ability to think critically. Will AI make us all dumber?
