Writers @ Stanton: Anna Goldsworthy

Join author Anna Goldsworthy as she explores the concept of what it means for humanity in the age of AI in the latest Quarterly Essay.

AI may be our most persuasive God yet. At the same time, it forces a confrontation with what it means to be human: bodies, fragility, memory. It raises questions about human connection, leisure and learning, and brings new existential and ethical risks.

In this important and timely essay, Anna Goldsworthy explores the implications of AI for art, culture and the self.
