Aaron Sorkin on Why AI Will Fail, Facebook & The Future of America | What I’ve Learned | Esquire

Aaron Sorkin has spent decades writing some of the most influential stories in film and television, but the biggest lessons he’s learned extend far beyond the page. In this episode of the “What I’ve Learned” podcast, the Academy Award-winning writer and director sits down with Esquire Editor-in-Chief Michael Sebastian to reflect on the craft of writing, the power of dialogue, and why storytelling matters, especially in the age of AI. Watch as Sorkin opens up about addiction and recovery, what he learned from Rob Reiner, why he’d like to revisit “The Newsroom,” and how becoming a father and surviving a minor stroke changed his perspective. He also discusses “The Social Reckoning,” Facebook’s influence on modern life, and why he still believes America can turn things around.
