We've Seen This Movie Before

We’ve seen this movie before. Every major technological shift brings big promises, big fears, and plenty of uncertainty. AI is no different—but parts of this revolution really are new.

Join Matt Lasater and Michelle Morgenstern, Ph.D., a linguistic and digital anthropologist and Assistant Professor of Anthropology at the University of Vermont, for a conversation about what history can teach us about AI, what’s different this time, and why successful AI adoption may ultimately be more about people, context, and intentional choices than the technology itself.
