AI is no longer just a tool. It is entering people’s reasoning, altering their identities, and changing their sense of what matters. So argue Helen and Dave Edwards, founders of Artificiality Institute, in this clip from the Beauty at Work podcast. They lay out their framework of three dimensions (reasoning, identity, meaning-making) that produce eight roles people place AI into, and why that can shift us from cognitive sovereignty to cognitive surrender.

Helen and Dave Edwards are co-founders of the Artificiality Institute, a nonprofit research organization that helps people stay human in the age of AI. They explore how AI changes the way we think, who we become, and what it means to be human. Through story-based research, education, and community, they help people choose the relationship they want with machines, so they remain the authors of their own minds.
