A.I. May Already be Rewiring the Human Brain with Dr. Jack McCallum - Sarah Westall
from Fringe Radio Network · host Fringe Radio Network
Dr. Jack McCallum — whose remarkable career has included roles as a pediatric neurologist, historian, businessman, university professor, and writer — rejoins the Thrive Hour for a fascinating discussion on how AI may fundamentally reshape the human brain and society itself. Dr. McCallum argues that humanity’s interaction with AI could become the most profound transformation in human history — perhaps second only to the development of language itself. We explore why he believes this shift is so significant, how major transitions throughout history have reshaped civilization, and how our brains physically adapt to new ways of thinking and processing information. We also discuss education, creativity, intuition, consciousness, human connection, and what skills may become most valuable in the age of AI.An extended version of this conversation will be available on Substack.Follow Dr. Jack McCallum on his substack at changingbrain.substack.comFollow Dr McCallum on his website at JackMcCallumMD.com or on his Substack at changingbrain.substack.com
