What changes for us, as writers, as creators, as thinkers – as humans – when there are more AI bots in the world than people?
Telling stories about our lives and the world around us is one of the most intimate and powerful practices that we, as humans, have. And even though artificial intelligence has existed in some form for decades, only with the emergence of chatbots has AI become a storytelling machine.
So what does AI mean for human literacy? What changes when algorithmic intelligence tells stories about ourselves and our world? Should we let it? And really, who is telling the story–and why?
Join Dr. Jeremy Roschelle, the lead learning scientist at Digital Promise, and Betsy Corcoran, a journalist and founder of EdSurge, as they explore with writers, researchers, teachers and even policy makers the potential – both positive and negative – for AI, for literacy, and for us.

We've moved from the "age of Enlightenment" to the "Age of Entanglement," says John Seely Brown, a long-time leading thinker, technologist and scholar on learning. In this episode of Future Fluent, Jeremy Roschelle and Betsy Corcoran go the source: JSB has done it all, from working at a bookie in high school to managing Xerox PARC, advising technology leaders and publishing more than 100 papers and books, many of which are on learning. JSB has spent his career experimenting -- and yes, playing -- with how the technology we build shapes the way we work and learn. What he's learned along the way? That learning, much like being part of a jazz group or surviving in the wilderness, involves constantly questioning and reexamining everything around us. "The notion of looking for the solution -- or even the (right) prompt doesn't compute anymore."
John Seely Brown has published over 100 papers in scientific journals and nine books including coauthoring the acclaimed, The Social Life of Information (HBS Press, 2000) with Paul Duguid, which has been translated into nine languages.
You could dip into John Seely Brown’s website, which is packed with slides from past presentations.
