## Resource

In this episode, I explore the idea of a “post-reality era,” a world where the information we consume, the content we engage with, and even the relationships we form are increasingly shaped or generated by AI. I break down the early signals already happening around us, from AI-generated music that people emotionally connect with, to the growing trust in AI systems as companions, advisors, and even sources of truth. A post-reality era could have profound implications for democracy and societal cohesion, but if we can see it coming, there’s a lot we can do to get ahead of it.
