Can AI meaningfully extend healthspan without losing what makes us human?
Journalist and author of Hacking Humanity, Lara Lewington joins me to share a grounded, optimistic view of AI in healthcare. We unpack the real risks to focus on now, the gains already happening in screening and prediction, and why lifestyle is still the strongest lever, with technology finally helping us measure, adhere, and act earlier. We get into wearables and pattern tracking, dementia risk signals, genomics and the microbiome, and the practical ethics of data and access. Most of all, we talk about lifestyle & joyspan, purpose, community, and companionship, as vital health inputs that no gadget can replace.
