Hank interviews John in the first episode of his new podcast, Humans!

This is the final episode of the AI for the Rest of Us series — and it didn't go the way Erin planned. Not because the series failed, but because it worked. She went in hoping to create a compassionate, curious space for women to engage with AI. She came out changed, uncertain, and more honest about what that process actually costs. This episode is less a conclusion and more an unpacking: of the mental loop that comes with having a public opinion on something nobody agrees on, of changing your mind in real time, and of what it means to hold an evolving point of view without collapsing into certainty you don't have. It's messy. That's kind of the point. WHAT WE TALK ABOUT Why the series was harder to make than anything Erin has produced in a long time — and why "just push through it" wasn't the right answer for this season of life. The mental loop of researching your way to solid ground, getting challenged again almost immediately, and starting over. What that cycle costs when you care about being right, being good, being honest, and being liked — all at the same time. What Erin actually thinks about the environmental cost of AI (spoiler: it's complicated, nuanced, and the 1-litre-per-query statistic is already outdated). Hank Green explains it better than anyone. A new study on AI literacy and receptivity — and why becoming more informed about AI led Erin to use it less, not more. Why directing AI anger at end users instead of industry leaders, politicians, and the people actually making decisions is misdirected — and why treating people differently based on whether they use AI is something Erin has zero tolerance for. What it looked like to pursue AI literacy publicly while her own opinion was quietly changing. And why that's actually what critical thinking looks like from the inside, even when it doesn't feel like it. "Your AI literacy will require you to hold an evolving opinion — you can't perform certainty and you also can't collapse into 'I don't know anything.' Hold yourself to a standard that is both messy and evolving." ONE THING TO TAKE AWAY You don't have to have a settled position on AI. You just have to stay in the conversation — curious, critical, and willing to let what you learn change how you think. That's harder than it sounds, and it's also the only honest option any of us has right now. LINKS MENTIONED Hank Green — How AI uses water (and what that actually means) The clearest, most honest explainer on AI's environmental footprint Erin has found. Covers water consumption, the corn comparison, and why the conversation is more complicated than the headlines suggest. Lower AI literacy predicts greater AI receptivity — Journal of Marketing (2025) The study Erin references on the relationship between AI literacy and AI use. The more you know, the more critical you become. Worth reading — or at least the abstract. WHAT'S COMING NEXT Erin is returning to the conversations and topics that feel most like her — mental health, burnout, rest, and the real lives of women navigating all of it. More interviews. More check-ins with real people. Less performing certainty she doesn't have. If this series resonated with you — even the messy parts, especially the messy parts — she'd love to hear from you.

Claude Mythos Preview might break the internet, Florida is suing OpenAI and datacenter protests are spreading. This is the AI backlash. This week on AI For Humans, we're having a frank conversation about the growth of anti-AI sentiment and what we (as humans) can do about it. Florida's Attorney General launched an investigation into ChatGPT and OpenAI over the dangers of AI to children. Datacenter protests are rising across the country, with xAI facing accusations of poisoning local communities. Bernie Sanders and Hank Green are calling for slowing down while Sam Altman is proposing new taxes for when AI does all the work. Oh and Demis Hassabis says he'd rather have cured cancer than compete with ChatGPT. We dig into how the stories we tell about AI shape public perception, starting with last week's Mythos as cyberweapon framing. Is AI the problem or are we the problem? Plus, Meta surprised everyone with Muse Spark, a new AI model that's actually pretty good. Claude shipped managed agents, a monitor tool, and advisor strategy features. OpenAI introduced a $100/month plan and doubled Codex limits again. And OG content creator Captain Hahaa is doing incredible stuff with Seedance 2.0. EVERYBODY HATES AI. WE DON'T.

This week, This week, Mike and Liana are joined by Christine Riccio to discuss Survivor 50 episode 5. Survivor 50 is heating up and RHAP BNB hosts Mike Bloom and Liana Boraas are back with guest Christine to talk all things week five. With a double boot, the famous “blood moon” merge twist on the horizon, and fan favorites dropping like flies, this episode is packed with laughs, drama, and a few wild Survivor moments.

There's plenty of buzz about Billie Eilish's “boomerang idol,” plus debates about shifty edits and why some big returnees are barely getting any screen time. Christine nerds out over all the Taylor Swift nods (and the Swifty boot) Ozzy's partnership with Cirie gets a glow up, and we see a whole new side of him Rizo and Charlie's love-hate rivalry keeps things spicy (and provides plenty of laughs) The crew wonders: is it editing—or are Cirie, Kamilla, and Tiffany really invisible this season?

What's cool and what's cringe, and which generation gets to decide? Today we're talking about Gen Z, formerly known as “iGen,” and its relationship with millennials (and vice versa). Expert on all things internet, Hank Green, joins us this week to talk about the tried-and-true tradition of generations ragging on each other. Get ready for a lot of talk about gooning, looksmaxxing, mogging, and 6-7 (we still can't totally get to the bottom of that last one). Our guest Hank Green can be found pretty much everywhere on the internet. In particular, check out his YouTube channels @vlogbrothers and @hankschannel.

Today, I'm talking with Hank Green, a longtime friend of Decoder and the co-founder and now former owner of Complexly, an online education company he started with his brother John in 2012. I say former owner because Hank and John have just converted Complexly into a nonprofit and given up their ownership of the company in the process. That's some of the purest Decoder bait that ever was, because it's all about how you structure a company and how you make decisions about changing that structure. So of course I had to bring Hank back on to talk all about it.

My guest today is John Green. John is the award-winning, #1 bestselling author of books including 'Looking for Alaska,' 'The Fault in Our Stars,' 'Turtles All the Way Down,' 'The Anthropocene Reviewed,' and 'Everything is Tuberculosis.' John and his brother Hank Green have co-created a lot of projects together, including their massive YouTube channel, Vlogbrothers, and their podcast, 'Dear Hank and John.' He also serves on the Board of Trustees for global health nonprofit Partners in Health. And when I asked John if there was a piece of music that changed his life, he knew the answer right away: "You'll Never Walk Alone" by Gerry and the Pacemakers.For more info, visit songexploder.net/john-green.
