Sound Bites "We have to be humble enough to know that probably 90 percent of the time or 95 percent of the time the machines are going to be better." "The reality of it is machines are great at certain things, but guess what? So are we as humans. And I think that tends to be forgotten." "But we have to know when and how to interact with the machine, when to interrupt it, when to adjust it, when to augment the output." "The humachine is the enterprise of the future, the successful dominant form of enterprise that combines humans and technology."

William Sarradet talks with Brian David Johnson about his time in Austin's robust art scene and his experience running Cloud Tree Gallery. "There's more art-making than there's ever been in the history of the world and I feel like that's only going to continue towards this notion that we'll all be artists someday."

"I think the most important thing that I would like young people to know is that they can build their future. That they have the power and they have the agency to shape their future and they have the ability and the power when working with others to have an even broader impact.The thing that scares me the most about the future is when people give up that agency and they let other people design their futures for them. For me, I think it's incredibly powerful to go to young people and say you can do it. But also you need to tell me what you want. And I think empowering them to have a vision for the future, that's why I spend so much time in schools and talking to young people because it's those visions that I think are incredibly important."Brian David Johnson is Futurist in Residence at Arizona State University's Center for Science and the Imagination, a professor in the School for the Future of Innovation in Society, and the Director of the ASU Threatcasting Lab.

"I think, oftentimes, what'll happen as a trap when we talk about technology. People say, 'Well, what do you think is the future of artificial intelligence? Or what is the future of neural interfaces? Or what is the future of this?' And I always pause them and say, 'Wait a minute. If you're just talking about the technology, you're having the wrong conversation because it's not about the technology.'So when people talk about what's the future of AI? I say, I don't know. What do we want the future of AI to be? And I think that's a shift that sounds quite subtle to some people, but it's really important because if you look at any piece of news or anything like that, they talk about AI as if it was a thing that was fully formed, that sprang out of the Earth and is now walking around doing things. And what will AI do in the future and how will it affect our jobs? It's not AI that's doing it. These are people. These are companies. These are organizations that are doing it. And that's where we need to keep our focus. What are those organizations doing. And also what do we want from it as humans?"Brian David Johnson is Futurist in Residence at Arizona State University's Center for Science and the Imagination, a professor in the School for the Future of Innovation in Society, and the Director of the ASU Threatcasting Lab.

"Let's talk about technology and the role of humanity and the role of being human and what it means to be present in that. We need to keep humans at the center of everything that we do, that everything that we do in our life is about humans. It begins with humans and ends with humans. There might be technologies and businesses and all these things in between, but we should measure the effect on humans.When I talk to people about artificial intelligence or technology, I'm generally asking them two questions. What are you optimizing for? What's the effect that you're trying to get? Developing technology for technology's sake, although it can be kind of interesting...then is why you're doing it because you think it's interesting? But then ultimately, if you're doing it beyond your own gratification, why are you doing it?So much of what I do in that is talking to governments and militaries and large organizations to say we always have to keep humans in the loop. You have to keep humans in the center because it's about us. That really is incredibly important. And that's one of the central ideas in the future. The future should be about humans, and where are humans going. And what do we want as humans? And how are we using technology to make us more human, or healthier, or happier, or more productive?"Brian David Johnson is Futurist in Residence at Arizona State University's Center for Science and the Imagination, a professor in the School for the Future of Innovation in Society, and the Director of the ASU Threatcasting Lab.

For the Summer of 2023, a dozen futurists talk about what life will be like for humans in 30 to 50 years. Each guest is asked to paint a picture of the changes that we will experience between now and 2053 or 2073. Then they are asked what mistakes we are making today that the people of 2073 will look back at in disbelief. The goal of these episodes is to spark the imagination of listeners about the future we have the ability to create.In this episode, futurist Brian David Johnson (aka BDJ) paints a picture of life in 2053 with an emphasis on what he calls “the dirty little secret of the future” and that is that life then will look a lot like it does today, but with far more advanced technology. He also talks about how each of us would benefit from having a teenager as a mentor, why being fearful of novel technology is natural, and how we can overcome that fear. BDJ wraps up the interview by talking about how some of the things we are doing today – like the way we interact with our devices and living in homes that are not filled with smart devices - will be looked at in 50 years with a sense of disbelief.Brian David Johnson was Intel Corporation's first-ever futurist. Currently, he is a professor at Arizona State University's Global Futures Laboratory and the School for the Future of Innovation in Society. BDJ also works in a private practice with a broad range of groups, including governments, militaries, corporations, nonprofits and start-ups, to help them envision their future. BDJ holds over 40 patents and is the best-selling author of both science fiction and fact books: A Threatcasting Textbook, The Future You, WaR: Wizards and Robots, and 21st Century Robot.

Balancing The Now and The Future Throughout my career, I've had the privilege of working with some amazing bosses. One was a woman named Cindy. What made her stand out? She constantly encouraged us to look beyond our day-to-day tasks. As a Vice President, I was under her guidance, and she, a Senior VP, was persistent in pushing us to plan for the future and break free from the firefighting of the present. This isn't just an issue for me and my colleagues at that time; it's something many of us encounter. Of course, it's important to be present and appreciate the moment, but in various aspects of our lives—be it projects, careers, health, or more—we often fail to look far enough ahead. This preoccupation with the present can hold us back from a better future. In this episode, I'm joined by Hal Hershfield, author of the insightful new book Your Future Self: How to Make Tomorrow Better Today. We all want a brighter tomorrow, whether for our projects, careers, relationships, health, or more. But evidence suggests that our relationship with the future can be a bit tricky.

"By telling a story, you put in motion this vast sort of undercurrent of cognitive abilities that we all have for determining what's plausible. What's likely? What would play against what else? And there's nothing quite like narrative for doing that."---Leaders and organizations live and die by their ability to plan for and navigate the future. While tools such as data and analytics have a key role to play, the most powerful way to explore and shape the future is through the lens of story. Nobody knows that better than award-winning science fiction author and futurist Karl Schroeder. Over the last 40 years, Karl's helped organizations from the Canadian military to Intel use tools like strategic foresight, prototyping, and design fiction to anticipate and prepare for the unknown, through his creative and consulting practice with the Human Futures Studio.In this episode, Karl shares crystal clear insights about why it's so hard to plan for the future, how tools like strategic foresight can "innoculate us" against surprise, and how we might use future stories like his latest novel Stealing Worlds as thinking tools to tackle global issues like the climate crisis.He also shares recommendations for three fantastic books, for those who want to learn more.The Origin of Stories by Brian BoydDynamics in Action: Intentional Behavior as a Complex System by Alicia JuarreroScience Fiction Prototyping by Brian David Johnson.While it's true that we can't predict the future, we can prepare for it. Storytelling is one skill we all have that we can use to understand future trends and develop responses to potential scenarios.

What will work look like in 2022, or 2032? Will your job still exist? Will you ever have to leave your home for the office again? Or will the robots leave you unemployed?

In this episode, the second part of a two-part series, futurist Brian David Johnson offers a vision grounded in reality and suffused with optimism. Your job may change or even become obsolete, but that does not mean you will be robbed of a livelihood.

When people hear that Brian David Johnson is a futurist, they typically want him to offer up some predictions for what the world will look like 10, 20, 50 years from now. But Brian will explain to them that being a futurist is less about predicting the future than envisioning possibilities for it, choosing the one you want to build, and figuring out how to get there from the present.  Brian works through this process of futurecasting for Fortune 500 companies and the military, and in his book, The Future You, he shows individuals how they can apply it to their personal lives. He shares what that looks like with us today on the show, beginning with the importance of envisioning the future not as something set that you're helplessly hurtling towards, but as something you can actively change and shape. We then talk about how to do your own futurecasting by figuring out what you want the life of the future you to look like, and identifying the tools and people that can get you there. Brian then explains how to get going towards your desired future and why that future is local. We end our conversation with what all this has to do with a quote from General Dwight D. Eisenhower: "Plans are useless, but planning is everything." After the show is over, check out the show notes at aom.is/futureyou See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Can a futurist help you create the retirement plan you want? Our guest is Brian David Johnson, who was Intel's first futurist, and is the author of The Future You: Break Through the Fear and Build the Life You Want. Listen in - your Future You will thank you. We discuss: His new book The Future You What a futurist does - and doesn't do The common misconceptions people have about the future The most underutilized tool in retirement planning Futurecasting, backcasting, and threatcasting - and how they can sharpen your retirement plan Why storytelling is important to your future How planning for two futures is wise Why he thinks the future is local Brian David Johnson joins us from Oregon. _________________________ Bio Brian David Johnson is a Professor of Practice at Arizona State University's School for the Future of Innovation in Society, and a Futurist and Fellow at Frost & Sullivan, a visionary innovation company that's focused on growth. He also works with governments, militaries, trade organizations, and startups to help them envision their future. He has over 30 patents and is the author of a number of books of fiction and nonfiction, including The Future You: Break Through the Fear and Build the Life You Want, Science Fiction Prototyping; Screen Future: The Future of Entertainment, Computing and the Devices We Love; Humanity and the Machine: What Comes After Greed?; and Vintage Tomorrows: A Historian and a Futurist Journey through Steampunk into the Future of Technology.

He has directed two feature films, and is an illustrator and commissioned painter. _________________________ Wise Quotes On Financial Planning "...one of the most underutilized tools is financial planning is your imagination because you've got to imagine what you want your future to look like. And then once you can imagine it, then you can start to achieve it." On Futurecasting and Retirement "With retirement, it's one of those things that we're all thinking about, right? And if you're not, you really should be. So, we'll generally give ourselves permission to do it. And the thing about future casting is: Don't just think about tomorrow. Don't think about today. But think a little bit further out. And this is why I think it's really well-designed to think about your retirement. Whether that retirement will be 30 years from now, 20 or 10 years from now,  depending upon where you're doing your planning,  thinking like a futurist and using future casting allows you to really get out there and think about the reality of it - and then get into the details of it. And then as a part of futurecasting, a key component is backcasting: Where do I want to be in the future? Who is that future? Who's living in that retirement? What does that look like? And then what are the steps you need to take to get there, right? Who are the people that are going to help you? What are the tools and who are the experts? And so it really systematically breaks it down for people. So it allows their future and their retirement to feel more accomplishable. That's what a lot of the people I've talked to and the people I've helped[valued]. What they've told me is, 'Wow, okay. It felt like it was something really far out there, but now I really see what I need to do on Monday and I can also track my progress. So I think, in that way, it can, can really help most people to really think like a futurist to prepare for their retirement." On  Your Detailed Story "One of the things that I've learned over the last 25 years is that the way you change your future is you change the story that you're telling yourself about the future that you will live in. And I want you to pause and think about that for a second - because if you c...

My guest this week, Brian David Johnson, is a futurist. A technological futurist, to be more precise. He's made a career out of creating a vision for a future state — for people, for companies — and then helping them build a path to get there.   He was the first futurist — yes, that was actually his job title — at Intel, and he's currently a professor at Arizona State University's Global Futures Laboratory and the School for the Future of Innovation in Society. Brian is not some street magician, he can't tell you the future, and he doesn't have a crystal ball. In his book, The Future You, he provides a simple yet effective approach to actually articulating what you want your future to look like and how to get there, and to realize that far more is in your control than you might believe.   Connect with Brian on Twitter at https://twitter.com/BDJFuturist, and learn more about his work at https://threatcasting.asu.edu.
