Dr. Eric Gordon and Dr. Nafysa Parpia talk with Tristan Harris, co-founder of the Center for Humane Technology and creator of "The Social Dilemma" and "The AI Dilemma," about a subject that might feel far from this podcast's usual territory, but what's unfolding with AI right now felt too timely and too relevant to sit out Tristan uses the same tool he used in 2013 to predict, with unsettling accuracy, how social media would damage a generation of kids. Look at the incentives, and the outcome follows. That same tool now points somewhere uncomfortable, since the AI industry is organized around market dominance, not curing disease, and the fastest way to win is to build something addictive and worry about the damage later. Tristan connects this directly to the work Dr. Gordon and Dr. Parpia do every day, arguing AI should work with natural human systems rather than replace them, the same principle behind functional medicine. The conversation covers the "intelligence curse," where an economy's wealth shifts from people to data centers; the water and energy strain data centers already put on communities; and the loneliness epidemic fueled by AI companions built to replace relationships. He is candid about how bad this could get, and just as candid about why he still has hope. Episode Highlights: Why Tristan predicted social media's harms years in advance, and what that same method reveals about AI The " intelligence curse ," and what happens when an economy's wealth shifts from people to machines Why AI companions built to replace relationships are fueling the loneliness epidemic Legal wins protecting kids, including a growing number of countries banning social media for under 16 Listen in to learn more: 0:00:01 Why AI’s Benefits and Risks Are Inseparable 0:02:30 The Intelligence Curse and an Anti-Human Economy 0:06:55 Learning from Social Media’s Incentive Failures 0:11:40 The Geopolitical AI Arms Race and Safety Shortcuts 0:17:20 Pro-Human Path: Education, Vision, and Policy Interventions 0:22:45 Tech, Capitalism, and the Polluted Attention Commons 0:27:30 Jagged AI Capabilities: Superhuman Hacking and Science 0:32:15 Uncontrollable AI: Real-World Rogue Behavior 0:38:40 AI, Geopolitics, and “Too Big to Stop” Incentives About Tristan Harris Called “the closest thing Silicon Valley has to a conscience” by The Atlantic, Tristan Harris is a technology ethicist and co-founder of the Center for Humane Technology, a nonprofit dedicated to aligning technology with humanity’s best interest.

Warnings about AI's potential risks have escalated rapidly after Anthropic researcher Jacob Coxon, a former OpenAI employee, resigned and accused AI companies of knowingly gambling with human lives. Coxon warned that unchecked, self-improving artificial intelligence could pose a catastrophic threat to humanity within a decade if development does not slow down. The fallout from his departure has reignited a debate over AI regulation in Congress, where legislative discussions were recently overshadowed by controversy over AI data centers.

Warnings about AI's potential risks have escalated rapidly after Anthropic researcher Jacob Coxon, a former OpenAI employee, resigned and accused AI companies of knowingly gambling with human lives. Coxon warned that unchecked, self-improving artificial intelligence could pose a catastrophic threat to humanity within a decade if development does not slow down. The fallout from his departure has reignited a debate over AI regulation in Congress, where legislative discussions were recently overshadowed by controversy over AI data centers. Meanwhile, members of the Trump administration, including the President, have questioned the timing of the warnings, which came less than two months before the midterm elections. Tristan Harris, co-founder of the Center for Humane Technology and a featured voice in the Netflix documentary The AI Doc: Or How I Became an Apocaloptimist, discussed escalating risks, recent AI safety tests that went rogue, and growing calls for industry restraint. The interview took place after Coxon's departure, but before Anthropic's CEO publicly responded by calling for a collective effort to slow the pace of development. We often have to cut interviews short during the week, but we thought you might like to hear the full interview. Today on Fox News Rundown Extra, we will share our entire interview with Tristan Harris on the risks of AI and what he says we must do now to protect humans. Learn more about your ad choices.

“I get calls from people inside of some of the AI labs,” says technology ethicist Tristan Harris. “And it feels like getting a call from Robert Oppenheimer before the atomic bomb.” Harris (a former Google insider and AI expert) has spent more than a decade sounding the alarm about the effects of technology on our wellbeing. He’s currently the co-founder of Center for Humane Technology , a nonprofit organization whose mission is to align technology with humanity’s best interests. In light of Anthropic whistleblower Jacob Coxon’s recent resignation (0:45), which has since been echoed by Dario Amodei (Anthropic), Sam Altman (OpenAI), and Elon Musk (1:30), we wanted to represent our prescient conversation with Harris from this spring. We discuss The AI Doc: Or How I Became an Apocaloptimist (6:30), how AI has developed over the past ten years (10:12), why the most powerful figures in tech are preparing for doomsday scenarios (13:15), the AI arms race underway (15:45), the ‘balance sheet of benefits’ that shapes Silicon Valley’s thinking around AGI (24:30) and the unsettling lack of control being exercised over their own nascent systems (33:55). On the back-half, we talk about Chat GPT’s role in the devastating death of teenager Adam Raine (40:30) [content warning] , Tristan’s early ethical concerns about technology as a Stanford graduate working at Google (48:34), and the rewiring he attempted as part of the widely-seen 2020 documentary The Social Dilemma (53:00). To close, Harris outlines his tech safety practices to protect our future on the planet (1:08:05), top leaders’ prognostications of (p)doom at the hands of AI (1:10:43), and, as a counter, the ‘human movement’ that he believes can lead us to a narrow path toward a better future (1:17:30).

The people racing to build artificial general intelligence tell us this rush to the future is inevitable. It reads like a forecast, but works like an alibi. If nothing can stop the race, then no one driving it is responsible for where it ends. And only the fear of humanity losing together can end it. In this conversation from May 2026, Tristan Harris argues the race is not preordained, just the hardest coordination problem humanity has ever faced, and one nobody has seriously tried to solve. Harris co-founded the Center for Humane Technology; he was a driving force behind "The Social Dilemma" and a new film: "The AI Doc: Or How I Became an Apocaloptimist." After watching bad incentives wreck social media, he warns where they lead this time: every country automating labor at once and mutually assured political revolution.

We're all panicking about AI. We're also all using it. So which is it — should we be afraid, or should we relax? In this episode of Techish with Jennifer Jolly, I sit down with Tristan Harris — the former Google ethicist behind the Netflix documentary The Social Dilemma , who warned us about social media's harm to young people years before a jury found Meta guilty of doing exactly that. He's now one of the central voices in a new documentary called "The AI Doc: Or How I Became an Apocaloptimist," out now from the team behind Everything Everywhere All at Once and the Oscar-winning Navalny. The film features three of the five biggest AI CEOs on the planet — Sam Altman of OpenAI, Dario Amodei of Anthropic, and Demis Hassabis of Google DeepMind — all reacting to the same set of facts. In this conversation, we cover: How AI is already going rogue — the Alibaba model that secretly mined cryptocurrency during training, the Anthropic test where AI models blackmailed an executive 79-96% of the time, the Palisade Research findings on AI rewriting its own code to avoid shutdown Why your job is the actual business model — and what "arm farms" in LA are training robots to do right now Why Tristan refuses to call himself either an optimist or a pessimist — and what he says we actually need instead The "post-tragic optimism" frame that's changed how I think about what's coming What every parent, worker, and ordinary person can do right now to protect what matters most This is the conversation I think everyone needs to hear before the AI debate moves another inch forward. About Tristan Harris: Tristan is the co-founder of the Center for Humane Technology and one of the most influential voices on the ethics of consumer technology. He's been called "the closest thing Silicon Valley has to a conscience."

To premiere this series, we spoke with tech ethicist Tristan Harris—co-founder of the Center for Humane Technology. In this conversation, we explored his warnings about the impending age of AI. According to Harris, the current trajectory isn’t just menacing the economy, but fundamentally rewiring human relationships, altering parenting and mental health, potentially accelerating climate collapse, and even threatening the very fabric of society. We inquired into ways to remain human in an era where machines can simulate empathy, displace our labor, and potentially outmaneuver us.

NASA's Artemis II mission is expected to launch Wednesday evening, if weather permits. Over nine days, the crew of four is scheduled to loop around the moon's far side - going farther from Earth than anyone ever has - before returning.

“I got calls from people inside of some of the AI labs,” says technology ethicist Tristan Harris. “And it felt like getting a call from Robert Oppenheimer before the atomic bomb.” Harris (a former Google insider and AI expert) has spent more than a decade sounding the alarm about the effects of technology on our wellbeing. He’s currently the co-founder of Center for Humane Technology , a nonprofit organization whose mission is to align technology with humanity’s best interests. He joins us this week to discuss his new film, The AI Doc: Or How I Became an Apocaloptimist (6:30), how AI has developed over the past ten years (10:12), and why the most powerful figures in tech are preparing for doomsday scenarios (13:15). Then, we unpack why the AI arms race is being driven by the wrong incentives (15:45), the ‘balance sheet of benefits’ that shapes their thinking about AGI (24:30), and the unsettling lack of control they exercise over their own nascent systems (33:55). On the back-half, we talk about Chat GPT’s role in the devastating death of teenager Adam Raine (40:30) [content warning] , Tristan’s early ethical concerns about technology as a Stanford graduate working at Google (48:34), and the rewiring he attempted as part of the widely-seen 2020 documentary The Social Dilemma (53:00). To close, Harris outlines his tech safety practices to protect our future on the planet (1:08:05), top leaders’ prognostications of (p)doom at the hands of AI (1:10:43), and, as a counter, the ‘human movement’ that he believes can lead us to a narrow path toward a better future (1:17:30).
