Joanna Stern, journalist and founder of the media company New Things, puts AI to the test in her new book “I Am Not a Robot,” sharing what worked and what didn’t after a year of using it for almost everything.
Imagine if you invited robots — smart ones or “smart-ish,” at least — into every aspect of your life. Your emails and texts are all composed by an artificial intelligence agent, the bots look at a photo of what’s in your fridge and figure out what you can make for dinner. They even become emotional support, providing advice and sometimes companionship.
Journalist and founder of the media company New Things, Joanna Stern, decided to try that. She wrote about it in her new book, “I Am Not a Robot: My Year Using AI To Do Almost Everything.”
Marketplace’s Stephanie Hughes spoke with Stern about how AI did and didn’t help her and ultimately what she sacrificed by inviting AI into her life.
