Let's take a short break. If you're just joining us, we are talking to Kashmir Hill. She's a tech reporter for The New York Times. And we're talking about the growing use of artificial intelligence in our daily lives, from the classroom to the workplace to our homes, and the deeper consequences that come with it. We'll continue our conversation after a short break.

Let's get into the experiment that you did on your own life back in November.
