Former WSJ tech columnist Joanna Stern spent a year using AI for almost everything. She had her mammogram read by an algorithm, wore a bracelet that recorded every conversation, rode in a Waymo, and let ChatGPT help her decide whether to leave the Wall Street Journal. This year-long experiment is captured in her new book, "I Am Not a Robot: My Year Using AI to Do (Almost) Everything," which reflects on what AI actually does well, what it absolutely does not, and why humanoid robots are so dang funny.
