Ep176 "Where Does Your Mind End and AI Begin?" with Steven Johnson

November 9, 2026 · 1 h 4 min

Show notes

When a machine can remember your intellectual life and propose the next connection, is it still a tool or has it become part of the mind doing the thinking? In other words, who gets credit when AI supplies the crucial connection for an idea? Join Eagleman with Steven Johnson, historian of innovation & one of the creators of Gemini Notebook, as they wrestle with what happens when computers start thinking collaboratively with us.
