Do we really know the consequences of AI?

What is the true meaning of your life? Does your life have purpose? These are questions @oprah and Harvard Happiness professor and New York Times bestseller @arthurcbrooks tackled in the latest @oprahpodcast episode. Oprah sat down with Arthur to talk about his newest book, “The Meaning of Your Life,” why so many people today feel stuck in what he calls an “age of emptiness,” and the modern traps that can make life feel like a simulation of endless distraction, doom scrolling and procrastination.

@gayleking had to go back to work so goddaughter @kirbybump flew to Paris to take in the @zimmermann show with me today—and carb load right after 🥐🥖🍞

Off to celebrate @stellamccartney who is receiving France’s Légion d’Honneur tonight!

In 2018, @oprah picked “An American Marriage” by @tayari Jones as a book club pick. Last year, she read a galley of her next book “Kin” and decided this was going to be her our first pick of 2026. So while Oprah was in NYC, she heard Tayari was having a meeting with her publisher and she decided to crash it to tell her the news in person!

My next @oprahsbookclub selection is “Kin” by @tayari Jones. This profoundly eloquent yet familiar novel follows two motherless daughters, Vernice and Annie, who are childhood best friends in Honeysuckle, Louisiana. They grow up together—but as life would have it, they take opposite paths in adulthood, one into polished privilege, the other into a volatile search for belonging, testing what friendship can survive, what mothers leave behind, and how far a woman will go to claim a life of her own.Reading this book felt like being welcomed to a family reunion with people who have become your kin through blood or life experience. It will live within you long after finish reading it.
