A conversation on AI, curiosity, and the skills that endure

BALTIMORE, April 2, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — T. Rowe Price, a global investment management firm and leader in retirement, announces a new episode of “The Angle from T. Rowe Price,” its investment-themed podcast focused on the ideas and events influencing financial markets.

In the episode, “Humans vs. Machines: David Rowan on Curiosity, Creativity, and the Future of AI,” Justin Thomson, head of the T. Rowe Price Investment Institute, sits down with David Rowan, technology journalist, investor, and founding editor-in-chief of WIRED UK. The two explore why artificial intelligence could transform the global economy faster than previous technological revolutions. Their conversation examines how AI may reshape industries from health care and education to finance and investing, and what businesses and investors may want to watch as adoption accelerates.

“David brings a clear-eyed view of how quickly AI capabilities are advancing and why the differentiators may increasingly be human: curiosity, creativity, judgment, and the culture and leadership needed to attract great talent,” says Thomson. “For investors, the conversation is a timely reminder that the biggest opportunities and risks may emerge as AI tools become more powerful, accessible, and ultimately commoditized.”

Key topics covered in this episode include:

Why AI may transform the global economy faster than prior technological revolutions.
How AI could reshape industries including health care, education, and finance.
Implications for businesses and investors as AI adoption accelerates.
Which human skills (curiosity, creativity, and judgment) may become more valuable in an AI-driven world.
Why leadership, culture, and the ability to attract great talent may matter more as AI tools become commoditized.

Listeners can hear the full conversation with Rowan for perspectives on the rapid acceleration of AI, the opportunities it may unlock, and the questions leaders and investors may want to be asking now.
