Meghan O’Gieblyn will discuss the intersection of artificial intelligence (AI) and humanity with Executive Director of the Krebs Center for the Humanities and Professor of English Davis Schneiderman.

A writer and essayist, O’Gieblyn explores the urgent questions of identity, knowledge, and the purpose of life in an age shaped by materialism, technology, and artificial intelligence. With philosophical rigor, personal insight, and a touch of irony, she offers a thoughtful guide to rethinking existence in a rapidly evolving world.
