About the episode

Ed Elson brings on Cal Newport and Derek Thompson to explore how AI is reshaping the way we think and learn to the downside.

Cal Newport is a Professor of Computer Science at Georgetown University and New York Times bestselling author of eight books, including Slow Productivity and Deep Work. Derek Thompson is the Host of the Plain English Podcast, and author of Abundance.  Get your tickets to the Prof G Markets tour  Subscribe to the Prof G Markets Youtube Channel  Check out our latest Prof G Markets newsletter Follow Prof G Markets on Instagram Follow Ed on Instagram, X and Substack Follow Scott on Instagram Send us your questions or comments by emailing Markets@profgmedia.com Learn more about your ad choices.
