Summary
Kelly Corrigan, host of the podcast Kelly Corrigan Wonders, is taking over TED Talks Daily for the week leading up to Mother’s Day! As a guest curator for TED 2025, Corrigan asks big questions about the role of parents in the growing age of AI, how AI will change family life, and if it should play a role in the first place. In this episode, she’ll guide you through conversations she had with technologists, community leaders, evolutionary anthropologists, and physicians on whether technology limits or broadens the scope of parent-child relationships – and what this means for humanity.
This is episode one of a seven-part series airing this week on TED Talks Daily, where author, podcaster, and TED speaker Kelly Corrigan and six TED2025 speakers explore the question: in the world of artificial intelligence, what is a parent for?
