<p>Margaret Atwood is best known as the author of The Handmaid’s Tale, and she’s won a slew of awards for her novels, poetry collections, and children’s books. Now, at the age of 86, she’s written her first memoir, The Book of Lives. In this episode, Adam and Margaret break down her perspective on what creative jobs AI will and won’t threaten and discuss the evidence on the benefits of reading banned books. They also muse about why heroes need monsters and what it means to be delightfully disagreeable. </p><br><p><strong>Host &amp; Guest</strong></p><p>Adam Grant (Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/adamgrant/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@adamgrant</a> | LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/adammgrant" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@adammgrant</a> | Website: <a href="https://adamgrant.net/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://adamgrant.net/</a>)</p><p>Margaret Atwood (Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/therealmargaretatwood/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@therealmargaretatwood</a> | Website:<a href="https://margaretatwood.ca/?utm_source=chatgpt.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://margaretatwood.ca/</a>)</p><br><p><strong>Links</strong></p><p><a href="https://margaretatwood.substack.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://margaretatwood.substack.com/</a></p><br><p><strong>Follow TED!&nbsp;</strong></p><p>X:<a href="https://www.twitter.com/TEDTalks" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://www.twitter.com/TEDTalks</a></p><p>Instagram:<a href="https://www.instagram.com/ted" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://www.instagram.com/ted</a></p><p>Facebook:<a href="https://facebook.com/TED" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://facebook.com/TED</a></p><p>LinkedIn:<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/ted-conferences" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://www.linkedin.com/company/ted-conferences</a></p><p>TikTok:<a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@tedtoks%C2%A0" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://www.tiktok.com/@tedtoks&nbsp;</a></p><p>Podcasts:<a href="https://www.ted.com/podcasts" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://www.ted.com/podcasts</a></p><p>For the full text transcript, visit <a href="https://www.ted.com/podcasts/worklife/worklife-with-adam-grant-transcripts" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">ted.com/podcasts/worklife/worklife-with-adam-grant-transcripts</a></p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
