  <description>The 35th installment of Born in Trouble. The discussion gears towards societal issues and the potential implications of Artificial Intelligence (AI) on personal development and relationships, particularly in the African American community. Guest Andrew Johnson speaks at length about the challenges faced in present-day relationships, focusing on the changing dynamics due to evolving societal factors and technology. The conversation also invades the impression that younger generations have towards marriage, and the diminishing value of organic human interactions in the digital age. Sprinkled with some humor and personal anecdotes the discussion is thought-provoking and covers wide-ranging topics from the role a traditional marriage plays to the potential of AI in manipulating human thoughts and emotions.
