Summary

This episode of From the Heart is all about AI and how it is infiltrating every corner of our lives. After a few upsetting encounters with AI, Rachel was left wondering: do the bad parts of the internet outweigh the good? Where are we headed as a society? And is it even our fault if there’s no way to stop it? It can be so hard to balance the desire to live without the internet while our lives have become so intertwined with it. But maybe there is something we can do. We can create spaces for real world experiences. We can spend more time in nature. (And we can throw our phones in the lake if we really want to). Rachel shares more about how she walks that difficult line through living life on her farm. It’s an episode that will leave you craving more of the things that actually matter.
