What AI Can’t Replace - and Why That Matters with WSJ Bestselling Author, Faisal Hoque
This isn’t another hype-filled tech episode or a doomsday warning about robots taking over. It’s a grounded, human conversation about what we lose when we hand over too much to AI—and how to hold onto what matters most. In this episode, author and technologist Faisal Hoque blends decades of innovation experience with Eastern philosophy to explore something few are talking about: how convenience-driven tech use may be eroding our freedom, critical thinking, and even relationships. You’ll walk away with a clearer understanding of what AI can’t replace—like personal struggle, creativity, ethics, and meaning—and why those things are essential to being fully human. If you’ve ever felt uneasy about how much thinking you're outsourcing to machines, or wondered what the real cost of "efficiency" might be, this episode will resonate. It’s not about fearing the future—it’s about choosing who you want to be in it.
Faisal's book, Transcend: Unlocking Humanity in the Age of AI, is available now!
