Hard Fork · The Wirecutter Show: Tips for Using A.I. Smartly With Kevin Roose · 30 Dec 2025 podcast

Are you using it all the time or is it something that you're only occasionally using in your personal life?

What are the touch points for you?

And what are you using it for?

Walk me through a day.

How are you interacting on a personal level and I would imagine a professional level too?

Yeah, I am super curious about that, and we will talk a little bit about that in a bit.

And your book, just to be clear, is about AI, right?

I mean, it's about, like, isn't it kind of like you're writing towards the singularity at the end?

When you look at the general population, what do you think people are using AI for right now?

What are you hearing from your listeners?

What are you hearing from people out in the world?

Something that you didn't mention is companionship.

Recently on your show, you've been talking about Character AI, which is a site that people can have sort of a relationship or a conversation with user-generated characters.

How much do you think people are really using AI at this point as a relationship?

Yeah, that's wild to me.

I'm a parent of a 12-year-old, and I know that she uses chatbots sometimes to kind of navigate tricky social, emotional situations with her middle school friends, which, I mean, that's just like a whole world that if anybody remembers being in middle school, there's so much drama.

I don't know that she's using anything that's an actual character that she has a relationship with.

I think there's probably would you say there's like a distinction there between typing into chat GPT versus using like a service where you're you've got a character that you've got a relationship with or is it kind of blurry?

Is that line blurry?

Yeah, ask me.
