From Here We Go Again With Kal Penn: Will Technology Replace Us? with Jacob Goldstein
Hello What's Your Problem? listeners! We'd like to introduce you to a show we think you might like. Here We Go Again is a brand-new podcast, where actor, author, comedian, and former White House staffer Kal Penn takes today’s trends and headlines and asks: Why does history keep repeating itself? In this episode: A.I. is automating thousands of jobs. But humanity's fear of technology replacing us is nothing new. Journalist and podcaster Jacob Goldstein tells Kal the story of the original Luddites during the early 1800s Industrial Revolution. They talk about how technology changes, how those changes reshape our work, and who historically gets protected and who gets left behind.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
