The Best Podcasts About AI in Our World

Artificial intelligence has slipped quietly into our daily lives — or, in some cases, crashed straight in. It’s in the boardroom and the classroom, on the factory floor and on the playing field. While debates rage about ethics and existential risk, the more immediate story is how AI is reshaping industries right now.

From sports analytics to surgical precision, these podcasts explore what AI means for the way we work, learn, heal, and play. They offer something more valuable than hype: an invitation to understand the technology and how to prepare to live alongside it.
