For the Foreign Policy Association’s annual John B. Hurford Memorial Lecture on artificial intelligence, human judgment, and the future of decision-making, Dr. Vasant Dhar draws from his book Thinking with Machines: The Brave New World of AI. Dr. Dhar, Robert L. & Dale Atkins Rosen Faculty Fellow and Professor at NYU Stern School of Business, explores how artificial intelligence has evolved from early expert systems to today’s large language models, why AI has become a general-purpose technology, and what that means for truth, trust, work, education, financial markets, medicine, and human agency. In this wide-ranging lecture and audience discussion, Dr. Dhar addresses some of the most urgent questions raised by modern AI: When should we trust machines? What happens when AI produces convincing but unreliable information? How should society govern increasingly powerful systems? And will AI amplify human potential—or disempower those who fail to adapt?
