Generative artificial intelligence has become a major topic across many fields, especially education, raising reactions that range from optimism to concern about its impact on labor and the nature of work. This lecture uses the John Henry legend to explore those issues, drawing parallels to the Luddite movement and U.S. labor history. Contact: John Jones at [email protected].
