EP 30 | Kitchen Table Talk: Riding the AI Wave Without Getting Pulled Under

from The Ripple Affect · host The Ripple Affect

Is AI going to save the world, or end it? Cheech and Nibby aren't tech people — but even they can't ignore that artificial intelligence might be the biggest change catalyst of their generation. This Kitchen Table Talk splices two conversations recorded eight months apart: one from early in their AI learning curve, one from now, after Cheech started running her business daily with Claude as a working partner. Between the two, they cover what large language models actually are (spoiler: it's math, not magic), the real costs — job displacement, environmental impact, data privacy, AI-induced psychosis — and the real upside, like building a website in 40 minutes or finally getting unstuck on dinner. They land on the question underneath it all: what do you protect as uniquely, unreplaceably yours? Pull up a chair for a conversation about change, technology, and staying human inside the runaway train. JOIN US on PATREON SIGN UP for our NEWSLETTER CONNECT with us on INSTAGRAM
