About this listen

Eight years after warning us about social media, Tristan Harris is back at TED — and what he says about AI is… well, insane. But beneath the alarm bells is something even more personal: a challenge to how we live, work, and find meaning in an AI-dominated world.

In this bonus episode, Stephen reflects on Tristan’s 2025 TED Talk through the lens of transition — exploring what happens when your identity, your value, and your work are quietly shaken by the pace of technological change.

📌 Topics include:

  • Why skipping the ending phase leads to disaster

  • “Workquakes” and what it means when AI outworks you

  • The myth of inevitability — and how we reclaim agency

If you’re feeling disoriented in the face of AI — this one’s for you.
