Podcasts about Futurist

Futurist and friend Garry Golden joins the podcast for a repeat appearance with an eye on how fundamental changes in technology will shape the coming decades. This is a conversation with a wide angle lens and a very long-term horizon: Jacob and Garry explore the future of energy (and debate biofuels v. hydrogen), discuss the current state of play in crypto and what the future holds for blockchain, before turning to a very introductory discussion of generative artificial intelligence and why Jacob should probably start using ChatGPT as a tool for his analysis. --Timestamps:(0:00) - Intro(2:36) – The future of energy(26:06) – The future of crypto(43:11) – What is GPT, Why Should I Care?--CI LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/cognitive-investments/CI Website: https://cognitive.investmentsCI Twitter: https://twitter.com/CognitiveInvestJacob LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacob-l-s-a9337416/Jacob Twitter: https://twitter.com/JacobShapSubscribe to the Newsletter: https://investments.us17.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=156086d89c91a42d264546df7&id=4e31ca1340--Cognitive Investments is an investment advisory firm, founded in 2019 that provides clients with a nuanced array of financial planning, investment advisory and wealth management services.

Listen to Future Now Show 3.07.2023 Is there really any way of predicting Earthquakes? We’ve recently become aware of Stefan Burns, who has worked as a geologist/geophysicist in NorCal.  He has been paying attention to shifts in the readings of earth magnetometers, especially in the low frequency realms, such as 0-50 Hz. He has been noticing power increases in the Schuman resonances, and that these increases may be correlated with pre-earthquake activity.  This is especially of interest to us, as one of the closest earth magnetomenters to us shgowing increased activity is located in our home town of Boulder Creek, at the Heart Math Institute, and less than 20 miles from the infamous San Andreas Fault! Our interview is with New Age Drinks founder Sierra Hooshiari, a survivor of a serious brain concussion that had put her in a coma for days. In her years long recovery from this trauma, she explored what brain chemicals were essential to her health, and formulated a soft drink incorporating much of what she learned. We think you’ll enjoy hearing her story..  For more info, goto TikTok@BrainpopRelax and Instagram @brainpopdrink @drinkbrainpop. Website is www.NewAgeDrinks.com Sierra Hooshiari, founder of New Age Drinks Also in this episode we speak with tribal story teller Jahn Ballard about the life of Walter Russell, renaissance scientist/artist of the 20th century and the Twilight Club, a consortium of influential thinkers, poets, and businessmen, including Mark Twain, and Andrew Carnegie.  This is a chapter in American history not really well known but strangely relevant to today’s challenges. We finish with a musical remix featuring a cosmic rap by none other than Carl Sagan! Enjoy.. Our video of Walter Russell and the Twilight Club Story by Jahn Ballard

In this week's episode of The Bleeding Edge of Digital Health, Mike Moore chats with medical futurist and keynote speaker Bertalan Mesko to discuss modern medicine's future and the trends impacting the industry.  As a professional and seasoned futurist, Bertalan has spent his life studying medicine and pushing the boundaries of what is possible for the healthcare system to bring the industry into a new age. With his commitment to this profession, he is also beginning a program to support the next generation of medical futurists and thought leaders.  In their conversation, Bertalan shares his thoughts on the trends he has observed as companies and corporations push forward into the future of digital health. He also touches on the six points he uses to assess a technology's potential and the pros and cons that come with digital and technological advances on an individual level.  Notable Quotes “For the first time in the history of medicine, now patients can sit at the same table that only their physicians have been sitting at since the dawn of modern medicine. I think that simply is the biggest milestone in history, and that is the challenge we should all focus on – to acknowledge the importance of patient empowerment. Because everything, every technological trend, every major change in how we deliver healthcare, how we practice medicine, would come after that. Because this is the change that initiated that whole transformation that we call digital health.” – Bertalan (2:42)  “We have to make sure only tested, safe products reach people and get into the lives of patients, so then we can keep them alive and healthy for as long as possible. That's why healthcare is so unique, and that's why it's so important to employ futuristic studies into the mindset of those people that make decisions about the near future of healthcare.” – Bertalan (20:22) In This Episode (2:06) Patient empowerment is the future of modern medicine (9:50) The “Digital Health in a Minute” series (10:58) Why medicine may become telemedicine in years to come (13:16) Why in-person care is not sustainable   (17:02) The importance of medical futuristic studies  (20:47) How Bertalan is investing in the next generation of medical futurists (24:17) The 6 qualities Bertalan looks for in emerging medical companies/technologies (29:58) Why a lack of humility limits the success of big corporations   (35:28) The give and take that comes with digital advancement  The Six Qualities for Company/Technology Assessment: The technology needs to meet a specific patient or clinical need. .  The technology has to be scientifically backed.  The technology should share the data with patients as well as physicians.  The technology should improve doctor/patient relationships. The technology should be accessible through technology/software/devices that users already own.  The technology should help globalize healthcare.    Our Guest Dr. Bertalan Mesko, PhD is The Medical Futurist and the Director of The Medical Futurist Institute analyzing how science fiction technologies can become reality in medicine and healthcare. As a geek physician with a PhD in genomics, he is also an Amazon Top 100 author. He is also a Private Professor at Semmelweis Medical School, Budapest, Hungary. With his team at The Medical Futurist, he's sharing his research with not just medical professionals but the general public as well through projects such as his “Digital Health in a Minute” YouTube series. He is also in the process of building a program to support the next generation of futurists and researchers.  Resources & Links Mike Moore LinkedIn The Bleeding Edge of Digital Health Apple Podcasts Google Amazon Spotify YouTube LinkedIn Bertalan Meskó LinkedIn Instagram Twitter YouTube Facebook

Dave talks to Chad Gerber, Artist, Futurist and Founder of Meloscene about how musicians can bring their real world instruments into VR to record, and perform in virtual studios face to face.

One of the lowest points of World War 2 for the Allies was autumn 1943, when bombing runs from England to Germany were ramping up. Hundreds of B-17s flew out to strike military targets, but they flew unescorted due to being the only planes with enough range (fighters could only make it from England to Belgium and back) and were sitting ducks for German fighters. Losses were as high as 25 percent. Flight crews were grounded and murmured mutiny.But what change everything was the revolutionary P-51 Mustang fighter. It had a top speed of over 400 mph and fly over 2,000 miles – outrunning and outlasting any other fighter in the war. But not many know the story of how it gained its reputation—how it nearly didn't make it to the skies at all. Today's guests are David and Margaret White, author of “Wings of War: The World War II Fighter Plane that Saved the Allies and the Believers Who Made It Fly.”We discuss how the P-51 Mustang airplane was not only used in the war, but how it was created, the roadblocks that almost prevented it from taking flight against the Luftwaffe, and how it ultimately won the war.

Listen to Future Now with Al/Sun & Bobby 2.14.2023 Hi folks, welcome back! We have just made the transition from KSCO to Santa Cruz Voice, and are still  in the process of setting up the new studio. Hence, few breaks for news, traffic, ads, etc., at least at this point. We expect you will see improved production values as we move forward with our transition. Meanwhile, I think you’ll enjoy this week’s offerings of future news and will appreciate our analysis of the balloon shoot downs of late, what a fiasco! And the Sun itself breaking off a piece, are you kidding? Reminds of a joke newscaster saying, “Earth Cracks in Half, Details at 11!” Only in this case, its real, and we can prove it! Enjoy..  

We kick off Season 4 bravely with the visionary Amy Webb, Quantitative Futurist, CEO of the Future Today Institute, professor at NYU and author. In this episode, as in Amy's book The Genesis Machine, we discuss the paths towards synthetic futures and the methods in creating more credible focus on the long term future.Amy speaks to her journey coming into the "esoteric" field of futures, from a fact-based background in economics and journalism. Fortuitously, she meandered on the rocky path to foresight, from a pragmatic background that fuels her drive to make foresight more impactful.Passionate about the need for foresight, now more than ever before, Amy describes the fourth era of foresight we are in, the actioning era as she calls it, driven by technology. This comes after three eras of extrapolation and imagining, calculation and war gaming and most recently (or currently, for many futurists), design fiction and crafting future alternatives. The mission to move foresight from government to corporations effectively is one Amy feels is leveraging ineffective tools; ones that don't lean enough on data and mathematical modeling. This has led to a dilution of foresight's impact and deluded futurists.Jo and Amy discuss ways to create changed mindsets and commitment to action in businesses, moving beyond inspiring to problem solving. It's a contentious topic in the field of foresight, which is still largely government-integrated and academic, to move past creative extrapolation through scenarios, to mathematically driven models of the future. (A perspective Amy has copped some flack for.)Amy then takes us into the future, and the topic of the latest book she co-authored with Andrew Hessel, The Genesis Machine, explaining how over 13 years of researching AI she noticed something profound happening in the synthetic biology space. General purpose technologies have the potential to fundamentally alter society and impact the economy, like electricity and the internet have, and while Amy concedes scaling it is a ‘ways off', we should be paying attention, and planning for synthetic biology to act as the next generative purpose technology – transforming medicine, the environment and our food systems.--To look outside, Amy goes outside where cycling helps clear her busy mind. A familiar face on the conference circuit, Amy also makes a point to attend and learn from conferences and events that have nothing to do with her role or field of expertise. This broadening of perspective brings both a chance to learn and to gather surprising new topics to research.--Founder and CEO of the Future Today Institute (FTI), Amy Webb pioneered a data-driven foresight methodology that is now used within hundreds of organizations worldwide. She built FTI into one of America's fastest-growing companies –– FTI has been ranked on the Inc 5000 list for two consecutive years. Amy helps CXOs of the world's-admired companies achieve long-term growth, and she shows businesses how to spot disruption early enough to create new revenue or to mitigate risk. Amy also advises the leadership of government, military and central banks on risk and opportunity.Amy Webb was named by Forbes as one of the five women changing the world, listed as the BBC's 100 Women of 2020, and in 2021 was ranked on the Thinkers50 list of the 50 most influential management thinkers globally. Her latest book, The Genesis Machine, explores the futures of synthetic biology.Learn more about Amy: https://amywebb.io Check out the foresight tools...

With all of the rapid technology changes that are emerging all around us, how can you better look to and prepare for the future?  Will AI render your work useless in the near future?  It takes the insights of a futurist to understand all of the potential and problems that the future really holds.  On today's episode of The Digital Enterprise Society podcast, Craig Brown and Thom Singer welcome Futurist and Applied Foresight Consultant Simon Anderson. Simon works to help companies be more future-ready, and he shares eye-opening insights into what exactly the future holds and his top five tips for becoming more future-ready.    On today's podcast, you will learn:   What is a futurist? The title means different things to different people.  Generally speaking, a futurist studies the future and makes predictions based on current and emerging trends.  Futurists aim to navigate challenges and capitalize on opportunities created by rapid change.  Famous futurist Alvin Toffler made an impressive number of accurate predictions about the future.    Three A thinking Attention, anticipation, and action are the three key points to an improved mindset and practice.  With the three A's, you can change how you think as well as how you do things.  By paying attention to the peripheral forces at work in your life, you can locate a preview of what might be important in the future.  Consider ‘what if, what then?' not to predict the future but to anticipate potential futures.  Finally, identify the actions you would take if the potential future were to happen. Take 15 minutes a week to consider these trends and their potential impact.    Augmented reality trends  Some aspects of virtual reality have been in the workplace for a long time.  Virtual reality is still in the early stages, and is currently the worst it's ever going to be.  Current setbacks are still pointing these innovations toward the future.  Automation tools are not going to fully replace humans one for one.  AI does have the potential to replace humans on a micro level, but not on a macro level.    5 steps to becoming future ready 1- take a future-15 moment as described above.  2- create a counterpoint file that challenges your existing beliefs.  3- conduct a pre mortem with your board or company to understand why your company may not exist one day.  4- find an informed outsider to offer insights into your industry.  5- find a reverse mentor- someone with a generational perspective than you that can guide you through current and future technologies   Post-pandemic advice from a futurist  Massive shifts over short periods of time are certainly possible.  Consider what might happen next and how to take advantage of the opportunities presented.  Look at what processes can be automated now and in the near future.  Utilize the certifications, classes and tools that could give you an advantage within your industry.  Engage the people in your organization who are interested in and responsible for looking ahead to the possibilities of the future.    Continue the conversation with us within the Digital Enterprise Society Community at www.DigitalEnterpriseSociety.org.   Digital Download: Virtual Round-Table Series

OUR FUTURIST THOMAS FREY IS ON AT 1 And we are going to be talking about this article about the future of work (spoiler alert: it's changed forever by covid) and this one about the Darien Gap that is preventing the highway from being built that would connect North and South America via road.

What's the future of finance?To answer this question I spoke with James Butland, Vice President of Financial Partnerships, EMEA for Airwallex.Airwallex was founded by four friends, Jack Zhang, Max Li, Lucy Liu, and Xijing Dai, in Melbourne, Australia in 2015 and was inspired by real-life experiences.Out of their love for good coffee, engineering-banking friends Jack Zhang and Max Li started Tukk & Co, a café in Melbourne. As small business owners, they recognised first-hand the impact of high foreign exchange (FX) fees and banking costs on their profit margins, and sought out to build a better solution for businesses operating cross-border, improving on the constraints of the current global financial system.Specifically they wanted to solve the pain points surrounding cross-border transactions and empower businesses of all sizes to operate anywhere, anytime.What's the future of the financial services industry?The financial services industry is undergoing a radical transformation, partly through the forces demanded by regulation, as well as the needs of consumers and small and large enterprises.New Banking-as-a-Service (BaaS) platforms can help to drive improved customer experience and business growth, and also could be the key to unlocking the future of the financial services industry.Increasingly companies are now investing in incorporating financial products and services into their core business models. To meet this rising demand for embedded finance, traditional financial institutions and challengers are increasingly offering BaaS options.But where do you start?James answers these questions and more, including how new banking platforms can empower a “talent anywhere” strategy for a reimagined workforce, allowing the best people to be hired no matter where they live, even if a company doesn't have a physical presence in that country.More on JamesJames on LinkedInAirwallex websiteYour Host: Actionable Futurist® Andrew GrillFor more on Andrew - what he speaks about and recent talks, please visit ActionableFuturist.com Andrew's Social ChannelsAndrew on LinkedIn@AndrewGrill on Twitter @Andrew.Grill on InstagramKeynote speeches hereAndrew's upcoming book

In this episode, McGonigal teaches us how to be futurists and talks about the role of imagination and gaming in shaping a future that we're truly excited about.
