Books Still Matter in a Fragmented Culture

Nick Bilton is a Special Correspondent for Vanity Fair, a New York Times bestselling author, and screenwriter.

This conversation explores the power of story — how tech titans like Jobs, Dorsey, and Musk wield narrative as a weapon, and why AI may be the first technology capable of wiping us off the face of the planet. It also happens to come from someone currently writing the book and screenplay for Martin Scorsese's upcoming film starring Dwayne Johnson.

He also pulls back the curtain on Silicon Valley's reality distortion field and how completely it can play you.

Nick is a rare mind. This one is not to be missed. Enjoy!
