  Ted audio collective.

• 00:08

  You'Re listening to how to be a better human.

• 00:10

  I'm your host, Chris Duffy.

• 00:12

  And today we're talking about the surprising ways that artificial intelligence and automation will affect both the future of our jobs and our own behavior beyond the workplace.

• 00:22

  Okay.

• 00:23

  Hi.

• 00:23

  This is actually Chris.

• 00:24

  This voice you're hearing right now, this is really me.

• 00:26

  The voice that you heard before that was computer generated based on audio of me from past episodes.

• 00:32

  And the fact that it's even remotely possible to create a computer generated version of my voice is terrifying.

• 00:38

  Even if that voice sounded like he was maybe not fully enthused about doing this show and needed a cup of coffee.

• 00:44

  But I am scared about that because I need this job.

• 00:47

  I don't want to be replaced with a hosting robot.

• 00:49

  And you know that fear, that fear of automation coming for our jobs and changing the way that we work, that is something that our guests today, Kevin Roose, knows very well.

  Kevin is a columnist for the New York Times and the author of a recent book called Future proof nine rules for humans in the Age of Automation.

• 01:06

  So Kevin has written a ton about how technology might impact our jobs and the way that we work in the future.

• 01:12

  And he's a guy who really understands my terror when I heard that computer version of my voice.

• 01:16

  Because when it comes to worrying about automation in your job, Kevin has been there himself.

• 01:21

  Here's a clip from his TED talk.

• 01:24

  I was in my mid twenties the first time I realized that I could be replaced by a robot.
