Your Undivided Attention · Can AI Be Built in Service of Life? A Conversation with Krista Tippett · 16 Jul 2026 podcast

So I actually have never done a Zoom interview or conversation before, and there you are now.

So, Tristan, I think you know that this gathering opened yesterday for, I think, many, if not most of the people in the room, with watching the Apocaloptimist film.

And it was offered as a kind of foundation and a frame for what I think are going to be, I want to say, life-giving, generative conversations.

I'm not ready to give that word generative over to AI.

For the next few days.

And I know that, I mean, you were in the film, obviously, but my understanding is also you were a friend of the filmmaker so that even if you weren't directing the arc of the film, you were probably involved conversationally all along the way as what was being learned was being processed.

So, you know, I wonder, and I don't think there's a lot that could surprise you at this point because you've been steeped in this for these years.

But was there anything that surprised you about how it progressed and where it came out?

And I was, you know, given the lens on the human condition, which is how I kind of tend to come in at everything.

Of course, I was very struck and it resonated deeply with me.

I think one of the first things maybe out of your mouth was that the best case scenario of our shared future with this technology is that we rise to our most mature selves, which is actually a tall order.

It's a tall order at any given time.

In this young, very tumultuous century where, as I see it, we're living with a distressed nervous system at a species level, and that's manifesting on every continent in different ways.

At where humanity is living in fear, and then if we bring that fear sensibility to this technology, I mean, one thing we know about fear in a body is that it actually inhibits us from rising to what you called our most mature selves.

Yeah.

But I guess I also feel like, yeah, I don't know.

So I think my sense is that you, and tell me if this is right, because we had a brief conversation just a few weeks ago.

I think that maybe you had hopes for how this film, that this film could be a contribution, an offering to our collective discussion, discernment.

Yeah.

becoming better informed and perhaps also in that rising to that more mature self.
