There's a general rule in academia: if the title contains a question, the answer is "no".

In this case the problem with the question is not that we might or might not adapt to something happening in the future. We are already adapting to something already here, so I find the question a little stupid. The discussion between the two is interesting and worth the read though.

Do you have a link to the original audio for the conversation? couldn't find it in the article.
