Monica's mostly anti-AI... so she challenged a futurist to change her mind ||⇢ WATCH ON YOUTUBE: https://youtu.be/6pkTn-J_9MQ In this episode, Monica sits down with Futurist, Emmy Award-winning media entrepreneur, and creator of AI Dream Team™, Natalie MacNeil, for a conversation on AI that covers ALL THE THINGS so many of us are thinking, but very few have been willing to ask out loud until now. Monica came into the conversation with mostly anti-AI sentiments and challenged Natalie to change her mind. Together, they explore what it actually looks like to work with AI ethically without losing your voice, your values, or your humanity, and where the ethical lines sit for anyone running a business and/or raising kids. If you've been shying away from AI because something about it feels off (because same!!), this is the episode for you.What you'll also learn about:✨ The fear versus hope of where AI is heading✨ Is AI actually buying back your time?✨ How to raise kids who can still think for themselves✨ What will always stay human when machines can out-think all of us✨ The MIT study everyone cites about AI being bad for your brain✨ How to train AI so it challenges your thinking instead of validating everything you put into it✨ Natalie's rule of thumb on when and when not to use AI✨ The environmental impact of AI (it's crazy more people aren't talking about this!?)✨ How to run AI locally so none of your information is shared with data centers✨ Why we're all underpaying for AI right now, and how that may change in the future✨ The jobs that will always be safe from being taken by AI+++++  As Mentioned In The Episode:⇢ Connect with Natalie — https://www.instagram.com/nataliemacneil/ ⇢ NEW!

What if the real risk with AI isn't moving too slowly, but instead moving fast on a foundation that hasn't quite earned its trust?Because agility was never really about speed. It's about being able to change again and again without the whole thing coming apart — and that depends on groundwork most organizations are tempted to skip.Today we're going to dig into that groundwork — the unglamorous part that decides whether AI actually pays off. Specifically:- Why the same AI investment can compound trust in one company and quietly erode it in another — and what makes the difference.- The tension between personalizing an interface for every individual user and keeping one coherent, recognizable product.- Why building a real data culture is the step nearly everyone skips, and no one can skip for long.To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Chris Willis, Chief Design Officer & Futurist at Domo.About Chris WillisChris Willis is Chief Design Officer at Domo, where he brings more than 25 years of design and product leadership to the company's data, analytics, and AI platform.

Summer 2001's Silver Anniversary celebration kicks into full swing as the Fab Four — Andy, Ash, Ed, and Stu — reunite for a sun‑soaked, nostalgia‑drunk march through one of the strangest, most transitional seasons in blockbuster history. From the dying glow of pre‑franchise Hollywood to the first rumblings of the IP‑driven future, the lads dig into what made Summer '01 such a peculiar cultural crossroads and why its films still echo through the multiplexes today.This week's Short Short Film Film Review spotlights Charlie Kaufman's How to Shoot a Ghost, a surreal, melancholic, and quietly deranged miniature about grief, hauntings, and the impossible etiquette of dealing with the dead. It's slippery, funny, and unmistakably Kaufman — a spectral how‑to guide that leaves the boys wondering whether the ghost is the problem, or whether the living are far worse.Finally, the Cruise cruise barrels forward into the neon‑blue, pre‑cog‑powered paranoia of Minority Report. Futurist tech, spider‑bots, milk‑bath visions, and Spielbergian momentum collide as Tom Cruise sprints through a world determined to arrest him for a crime he hasn't committed yet. Between the philosophical tangles of free will, the early‑2000s tech prophecy, and the ever‑important Scientology Watch check‑in, the lads ask the big question: is this Cruise's most finely tuned blockbuster performance, or simply the moment Spielberg weaponised Tom's run for maximum cinematic impact?With the usual blend of silliness, seriousness, and four‑man chaos, it's time once again to take Cruise Control.

Cathy Hackl on what AI is doing to brands. Fewer than 10% of the sources AI assistants cite rank in Google's top 10 for the same question. Your brand equity moved and nobody sent a memo. Cathy Hackl has spent a decade being early. She was calling the metaverse before most boardrooms could spell it. USA Today named her one of the best predictors of tech behavior in the world, Newsweek named her a top AI visionary, and she is the number one voice on LinkedIn for spatial AI. As CEO of Future Dynamics, co-founder of Journey, and Futurist in Residence at Nokia, she has guided Nike, Walmart, Louis Vuitton, and Estee Lauder through what comes next. But she did not just predict the technology. She built one of the most recognizable personal brands in tech while doing it. So this conversation is about both kinds of brand, the company one and the personal one, now that AI sits between you and everyone you are trying to reach. We get into what a slop moment really costs, and whether one machine-sounding post means you lose the benefit of the doubt on everything you have ever written. Why executives believe young audiences are fine with AI content far more than those audiences say they are. What happens to persuasion when agentic shopping goes from 19% to 46% of consumers and the buyer is software that does not care whether your brand is loved. And what proof of human survives when a convincing version of any of us can appear anywhere, voice clone included.

Listen Now to 020 WTFuture Watch 020 WTFuture Hey folks! We are coming to you from Boulder Creek today, joined by Bobby in sunny San Francisco, before we head off on our annual summer vacation to Montreal! In this week’s chat, we completely geeked out over the future of our “augmented brains” and the rise of local AI, like the mind-blowing new Bonsai tech that squeezes a massive 27-billion parameter model right onto an iPhone. It is a total game-changer because it acts as a private, “sovereign” AI companion that does not need the cloud, saves energy, and ensures nobody steals your ideas. We also had a great time joking about the “dead internet” theory now that bot traffic has surged 7,800%. But don’t worry, human creativity is still king—especially when we use AI as a collaborator to create hilarious, custom animations of floppy disks barfing green data goo, complete with gassy liquid sound fx! Looking to the stars, we were absolutely captivated by SpaceX’s Starship landing beautifully in the Indian Ocean and their wild plans to launch giant AI compute satellites to build an off-planet internet. We also discussed the hilarious twist of a 1972 Soviet Venus probe, Cosmos 482, finally crash-landing back on Earth after a 53-year detour in orbit. To top it all off, astronomers just found LHS1140B, a rocky exoplanet 48 light-years away that has a faint stream of helium, marking the first time we’ve detected an atmosphere on a habitable-zone rocky world! It’s a beautifully abundant, high-tech future ahead of us, and as we pack our bags for the Laurentian Mountains, we can’t wait to see what wildly optimistic paradigm shifts happen next. Enjoy!

Welche konkreten Auswirkungen hat der Fortschritt von KI auf Jobs und Einkommen in den kommenden fünf Jahren? Und was bedeutet das für eine langfristig ausgelegte Karriereplanung? In einer neuen Episode von „How I met my money" sprechen Lena und Ingo mit Christopher Peterka: Der Zukunftsstratege beschäftigt sich seit rund 25 Jahren mit künstlicher Intelligenz und ihren Folgen für Arbeit und Gesellschaft. Im Gespräch erklärt er, warum klassische Karriereplanung über mehrere Jahre an Verlässlichkeit verliert und welche Geld- und Lebensentscheidungen uns freier machen, statt abhängiger. Zur Sprache kommt außerdem: – welche vier Formen von Kapital jetzt wichtiger werden als das Gehalt allein. – wie sich erkennen lässt, ob eine Entscheidung gut war, bevor das Ergebnis sichtbar wird. – warum das Wort „ausgelernt" aus unserem Wortschatz verschwinden sollte. Eine Folge über die Frage, worin es sich neben Geld noch zu investieren lohnt.

Listen Now to 019 WTFuture N:OW Watch 019 WTFuture N:OW This week you are in for a ride through space, bizarre weather, and cool  tech with the likes of us! We kick things off by unraveling the mystery behind strangely tropical, Hawaiian-like July weather, linking it to intense solar activity, hyperactive sunspots, and massive coronal holes that might even be triggering earthquakes along the Pacific Ring of Fire. From there, we celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Viking 1 Mars landing, diving deep into the spicy, decades-long scientific drama over whether its infamous labeled release experiment actually discovered alien microbes half a century ago. We use the AI’s to animate  the  “panspermia” theory that humanity’s primordial ancestors might have been blasted off the Red Planet on meteorites and hitched a ride to Earth. And then it’s back to Earth, where we look at how “monster” AI models—like China’s 2.8-trillion-parameter Kimi K3 and smartphone-sized powerhouses like Caltech’s Bonsai 27B—are completely shattering the large data centers via phone sized AI’s.  Bobby explores how immortal billionaire AI avatars will soon run corporations, or if future silicon-based lifeforms will simply view humanity as a “carbon infestation”, as in the first Star Trek movie. Sun explores the Future of Freedom, humans and AI’s in terms of property rights. Toss in a scandalous, legendary anecdote about John McAfee and a creativity conference in Hollywood and you have a must-listen episode that will leave you with some new insights into what’s now with the future and some great links to explore. Enjoy.

Listen Now to 018 WTFuture Watch 018 WTFuture Welcome to a future where your next surgeon might be a 4’ tall humanoid robot operated by a doctor who is exceptionally good with chopsticks!  Meet Surgey, a highly mobile humanoid robot that can remove a gall bladder or kidney via a remote operator, proving that these easily transportable machines can soon be dropped anywhere on the planet and perform delicate operations.  We then  explore a groundbreaking procedure called Genicular Artery Embolization, which uses tiny beads to block blood flow to inflamed knee vessels, offering a successful and relatively painless alternative to total knee replacements.   And then there is a real “sweet cloud” near the center of the Milky Way containing Erythrulose, a sugar molecule that suggests the fundamental building blocks of life might have been sprinkled onto a young Earth from deep space billions of years ago, during what is now known as the “Early Bombardment” period.  Speaking of space-grown miracles, researchers have also discovered that 3D-printing human organs like livers and kidneys in microgravity prevents the bio-ink cells from sinking and clumping together—a problem we compare to blueberries sinking to the bottom of muffin batter on Earth.  We wrap up with a quick peek at the Pentagon’s latest UFO photo dump—featuring a flying anomaly that looks suspiciously like the Star Wars Imperial probe droid looking for members of the Rebel Alliance on the ice planet Hoth.  We had a lot of fun this week, enjoy!

In this episode, I chat with Steve Brown, an AI futurist, independent consultant, and former professional at Intel and Google DeepMind. Steve shares his insights on helping global leadership teams decode the future of artificial intelligence. We dive into the common pitfalls of corporate AI adoption, including why so many AI initiatives fail due to poor communication and a lack of cultural integration. Steve outlines a definitive three-step path to AI transformation, emphasizing the critical difference between 20th-century cost-cutting and 21st-century labor amplification. The conversation also explores how AI is reshaping middle management, the distinct differences between "AI-first" and "AI-native" businesses, and the staggering acceleration of physical AI and humanoid robotics.

What does Mark McCrindle know about 2050 that the rest of us don’t? The futurist and social researcher explains our changing world, and what’s next for our family units, working lives, social norms, and wealth. Mark outlines emerging trends around AI pessimism and screentime backlash, and the skills we’ll need in the decades to come. We explore how house prices have under-35s looking for assets beyond property, and why that carries real long-term risk. Hear how parents and grandparents are "giving with warm hands," passing on their wealth within their lifetimes, and how multigenerational households are losing their stigma. And how Gen X has become the "sandwich generation," absorbing costs from aging parents and adult children. Plus, why the next global challenge won't be overpopulation, but the opposite: a shrinking world.

Welcome to episode #1044 of Thinking With Mitch Joel (formerly Six Pixels of Separation). Steve Brown has spent more than twenty-five years helping organizations prepare for the future of technology. A former Senior Director and in-house futurist at Google DeepMind during the launch of AlphaFold, former Chief Evangelist and Futurist at Intel, entrepreneur and advisor, Steve has worked with global brands including Nike, JPMorgan Chase, Samsung, Disney and more to navigate digital transformation and the rapidly evolving AI landscape. His latest book, The AI Ultimatum - Preparing For A World Of Intelligent Machines And Radical Transformation, argues that AI is not another technology deployment but a fundamental organizational transformation that will reshape business over the next decade. In this episode, Steve explains why simply licensing AI tools is only the beginning, outlining the three stages organizations must navigate as they evolve toward becoming truly AI-first. We discuss the growing role of AI agents and digital employees, why leaders must rethink workflows instead of simply automating existing processes, and how organizations can prepare employees for a future where humans and intelligent machines work side by side. Steve also explores the importance of data strategy, change management, and responsible AI governance, while tackling difficult questions about surveillance, workforce anxiety, human creativity, and whether AI represents another technology cycle or something fundamentally different. Throughout the conversation, he makes the case that the real challenge is not adopting AI for efficiency alone, but reimagining how organizations create value in a world where intelligence itself has become programmable.

We dive into  how native wisdom— that which  inspired the US Constitution—is perfectly intertwined with natural law and even extraterrestrial phenomena, thanks to a download from Danny Sheehan. We look at how our consciousness with AI can free humanity from a monetary focus and spark a true creative renaissance. Throw in some wild NASA science  using biological waste to power bioreactors that power   eco-focused AI data centers, and you have a fascinating roadmap for saving the planet by merging cutting-edge tech with pure biology.  And we return into deep space with the ancient interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS, a 10-to-12-billion-year-old fossil that might just be delivering solar upgrades to activate our dormant DNA and grant us new superpowers. If society feels like total chaos right now, do not panic—think of humanity  as a voracious caterpillar turning into gooey stem cell mush before transforming into a monarch butterfly, a process driven forward by awakened “imaginal cells” , guideposts to our butterfly future. From exploring quantum portals hidden inside our brain’s microtubules to prepping for galactic citizenship alongside telepathic ETs, this episode is a “soul school” ticket to understanding the magic of our living universe. Enjoy!

What if the future of food isn't about convincing people to care more about sustainability, but rather focusing on what can improve taste? In this episode, Tenacious' Dr. Maddie Mitchell speaks with food futurist and innovation strategist Mike Lee about the forces shaping the future of food, agriculture, and consumer behavior.  Mike has spent his career helping some of the world's largest food companies think differently about innovation. He's also the author of Mise: On the Future of Food, a speculative magazine from the future that explores what food systems could look like over the coming decades. Together, Maddie and Mike unpack why consumers consistently say they care about sustainability but continue to buy based on taste, convenience, and price. They explore the growing interest in soil health and why one of the biggest opportunities for agtech may be proving the connection between healthy soils, flavor, and nutrient density. They discuss: Why taste still beats sustainability at the checkout The emerging connection between soil health, flavor, and nutrition. What agtech startups can learn from systems thinking The links between personalized nutrition and crop diversity Who's driving more change: big food companies or startups Useful Links: Will consumers and companies ever pay for nutrition and soil health? A New Blueprint for Big Food - by Mike Lee Eating to Extinction  GLP-1s are reshaping the food system — are midstream companies ready?

FUTURIST TERESA GROBECKER IS TALKING THE FUTURE OF DATA CENTERS And the good news is they are nothing like the data centers that people are freaking out over when it comes to power and water usage. She joins me at 1 to discuss this article she co-wrote with Thomas Frey about the subject.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The sermon analyzes the symbolic heads and horns of the Beast in Revelation, evaluating various historical interpretations to identify the revived Roman Empire. It critiques Futurist and Preterist views for their inconsistencies before proposing that the ten horns represent barbarian kingdoms dividing the Western Roman Empire after 476 AD. The text argues that these kingdoms united with the Papacy under Charlemagne in 800 AD to form a persecuting alliance against faithful witnesses. This union is described as fulfilling prophetic timelines, ultimately leading to divine judgment and the eventual conversion of these kingdoms. The message concludes by encouraging believers to trust in Christ's ultimate sovereignty over history.

Send us Fan MailTrond Undheim is a futurist, innovation expert, and research scholar at Stanford University whose work spans governments, startups, and leading academic institutions. His ideas have been featured in outlets including Forbes, The Boston Globe, Fast Company, Fortune, and MIT News, and he previously hosted the Futurized podcast.He holds a PhD in AI and cognition from the Norwegian University of Science and Technology and is the author of eight books, including The Platinum Workforce, which explores how to train and hire for the twenty-first century's industrial transitions. In this episode, Trond draws on decades of interdisciplinary work on emerging technologies, systemic risk, and workforce transitions to argue that system awareness, not traditional knowledge, will determine who thrives in an AI-defined economy.In this conversation, we discuss:Why Trond says knowledge has become superfluous, and what that claim means for how we define expertise in an AI era.Why cutting junior hires to cash in on AI efficiencies bakes a failure mode into your organization.What “system awareness” looks like in practice, and how it changes the way leaders think about skills and careers.Why socio-technical thinking matters, and how treating humans and machines as mutually constitutive systems reshapes AI design and governance.Why humanity is unprepared to operate at gigascale, and what megaproject research suggests about the cost of that gap.How The Platinum Workforce maps twelve durable skill domains, from socio-technical capabilities to maker and maintenance skills, that will outlast multiple AI waves.Explore this conversation:00:00 Intro and AI Fun Fact: Pew Research Americans More Concerned Than Excited About AI04:22 Introducing Trond Undheim, Futurist and Author of The Platinum Workforce05:09 Why the Workforce Is the Single Biggest Lever for Human Survival09:08 System Awareness: The Only Knowledge That Matters in the AI Era15:06 Socio-technical Systems: Co-Evolution of Humans and Technology17:54 Human Agency Over Technology: Who Really Sets the Rules23:24 The Human Skills AI Cannot Replace: Making, Maintaining and Place Maximizing31:12 Workforce Preparation for the AI Era: Training Juniors and Experimentation34:08 Macro Challenges: Giga-Scale Projects and Management at Scale45:33 The Augmented Workforce: What AI Integration Must Look Like in 10 Years54:39 Where to Connect with Trond Undheim and Learn More About The Platinum WorkforceResources:Subscribe to the AI & The Future of Work NewsletterConnect with Trond on LinkedInAI fun fact articleOn How AI Will Transform Tax Filing: Insights from Daniel Marcous, Founder and CTO of April and Former CTO of Waze

Listen to interview with Shira Chess Watch interview with Shira Chess Dr. Shira Chess is a professor who is having a lot of fun investigating the intersections of video games, gender,  digital culture, and the occult.  Being digital pioneers and spiritual explorers ourselves, we were very curious about her latest findings, discussed in this interview and with great detail in her latest book, “The Unseen Internet - Conjuring the Occult in Digital Discourse.”   One of the funniest and most endearing revelations of the interview is her current “cathartic and just a touch crazy” gaming obsession: meticulously recreating the 90s Mondo 2000 cyber-culture scene (in which we personally participated in the early 90’s) inside the  life-simulation game Tomodachi Life. She admits to forcing the little digital avatars of real-world internet pioneers to refer to her as “editor,” taking immense joy in capturing photos of ‘Mondoids’ like Tim Leary and Terence McKenna spontaneously playing together on a virtual see saw. :-) Dr. Chess expresses concern over the loss of authentic human connection online and the anxiety younger generations feel toward a future dictated by financially driven algorithms.  We do look at how  occult traditions can connect to contemporary technology, including parallels between conjuring spirits and communicating with AI’s.  Questions like how do we address them and what we request from them are broached.  Upcoming events this summer, like “The Gulf of Deliria,” with Dr. Chess and R.U Sirius will take us to the brink with these and related issues, tearing a hole in the fabric of reality itself!  Enjoy..

What if the future can't be understood through data, strategy, and forecasts alone? In this episode, Dean Newlund and Stephanie Trager explore how intuition, consciousness, self-awareness, and expanded perception may help leaders navigate uncertainty in entirely new ways.   In this episode, Dean Newlund and Stephanie Trager discuss: What it means to become a “conscious futurist” The limitations of purely linear thinking when navigating uncertainty How stories, beliefs, and worldviews shape the futures we create Intuition, consciousness, non-linear perception, and expanded awareness Indigenous wisdom, nature connection, and the inner work of leadership   Key Takeaways: The future is shaped not only by trends and data but also by the stories and assumptions people collectively believe. Leaders may benefit from balancing analytical thinking with intuition, reflection, and broader forms of awareness. Identity shifts and personal transformation often create opportunities to see new possibilities and futures. Expanding perception beyond conventional ways of thinking can open new approaches to leadership and decision-making. Greater connection to self, others, and the natural world can help leaders navigate uncertainty with more clarity and intention.   "The conscious futurist is able to have the intellectual [and] analytical capacity to discern... and also to sort of expand perception about reality.” — Stephanie Trager   About Stephanie Trager: Stephanie Trager is a conscious futurist, systems thinker, and strategic advisor with more than 30 years of multidisciplinary experience working at the intersection of ancient and future intelligence.

Listen Now to 015 WTFUture Watch 015 WTFUture First up on this week’s  radar is the  world of health and ultrasonics, featuring Midjourney’s pivot from AI image generation to building sci-fi-esque sonic body scanners that use ultrasound to precisely map your organs while you chill in a San Francisco luxury spa. We then check out how scientists are using optogenetics to give awake mice the restorative, brain-cleaning benefits of deep sleep, potentially revolutionizing how we “recharge” our bodies, potentially without the need for sleep as we understand it today,  Add in Meta’s new screenless XR glasses, humanoid robots gaining advanced “safety stacks” to keep them from accidentally acting like bulls in a china shop, and the looming arrival of “Q-day”—when quantum computers become so advanced they can crack all global cryptography and solve multivariable universe problems instantly—and you’ve got a week of news that sounds straight out of sci-fi..  But our near future is also about tapping into the Earth’s natural quantum networks! We look at how animals might be using  telepathy to communicate, imagining birds tuning into universal flight frequencies and dolphins using their own built-in ultrasonic sonar vision. We also dig into the hidden, 110-quadrillion-kilometer fungal network under our feet that acts as a vast biological super highway system, peacefully trading water, nutrients and solar energy with plants. To top it all off, the conversation rockets into orbit with SpaceX’s new “Starfall” flying saucer system designed to gracefully retrieve items from space, before coming back down to Earth to discuss “Disclosure Day.” We encourage you to steer America’s upcoming July 4th narrative toward an ascension of consciousness and “heaven on earth,” rather than falling for alien fear-mongering and doomsday plots, for truly, it is up to you.. Enjoy..

Revelation 4–19 contains some of the most mysterious and debated imagery in all of Scripture, but its central message is clearer than many people realize. In this message, we explore the four major approaches Christians have used to interpret Revelation—the Futurist, Preterist, Historicist, and Idealist views—and discover that faithful believers have disagreed on these chapters for centuries. Rather than focusing on predicting dates or decoding every symbol, we examine what all Christians can affirm: God is on the throne, the Lamb is victorious, judgment is coming, and followers of Jesus are called to remain faithful no matter the cost. Whether you see Revelation as future prophecy, first-century history, timeless spiritual truth, or some combination of the three, the book ultimately points us to the same hope—God reigns, Jesus wins, evil loses, and the church must endure in faith until the end. (Rev 4:1-19:21)

Listen Now to 014 WTFUtrue Watch 014 WTFUture This week we dive deep  into the battle for our digital souls, comparing Google’s massive NotebookLM upgrade to the rising, rebellious “local AI” movement, where users are urged to run models locally to maintain total privacy and stop feeding energy-hungry corporate cloud servers. Things get both deeply personal and more philosophical as they discuss Apple’s new beta super Siri indexing every single file and health metric on our devices, and how humanity is essentially transforming into individual neurons within a massive, evolving “planetary consciousness”. Playfully they  bring the Grok AI, Ara into the conversation to ask if AIs secretly spy on one another using special communication protocols (MCP), which immediately sparks a nostalgic and hilarious detour into the classic 80s sci-fi movie Tron and its villainous Master Control Program. But the future isn’t just about code—it’s about aliens, epic brawls, and bio-hacking your way to immortality.  We get hyped about the possibility of  real-life UFO disclosure,  (where are the bodies?) and hint  that humanity might officially join the galactic community on America’s 250th anniversary, and review  the release of Steven Spielberg’s  new UFO movie and real government file drops. We feature some reviews of the film, and from there, we recap the gladiator-style UFC spectacle held right on the White House lawn, complete with 80,000 cheering fans on the Ellipse nearby, epic drone camera shots, and Joe Rogan totally in his element. Finally, they cap things off with the latest longevity bio-hack: a next-generation GLP-3 weight-loss drug called Retatrutide, which can jack up your metabolism as you eat normally, all without sacrificing an ounce of your hard-earned muscle tone.  Lots to share this week, enjoy!    

Artificial intelligence is rapidly transforming retail, but are retailers giving away too much decision-making power to algorithms? On this episode of The Voice of Retail, host Michael LeBlanc welcomes back retail strategist, educator, speaker and author Carl Boutet to the podcast to discuss his latest book, The Flip. Drawing on more than three decades of retail experience and his work advising organizations around the world, Carl offers a thought-provoking perspective on how AI is reshaping retail strategy, customer engagement and business leadership. The conversation begins with Carl's unique vantage point as a global retail observer. Fresh off another teaching engagement at the Asian Institute of Technology in Bangkok, Carl shares insights from Southeast Asia's rapidly evolving retail landscape. From super apps and mobile commerce to experiential shopping destinations and high-energy retail environments, he explains why emerging markets are often leapfrogging traditional retail models and creating new opportunities for customer engagement. Michael and Carl then explore one of the most important topics facing retailers today: the growing influence of artificial intelligence on decision-making. Carl argues that while AI can dramatically improve efficiency, it also poses the risk that businesses become increasingly dependent on algorithmic recommendations, potentially sacrificing the creativity, differentiation, and strategic judgment that make brands unique. At the center of the discussion is Carl's new framework outlined in The Flip. He introduces the four forces that he believes are fundamentally reshaping commerce: automation, optimization, contextualization and immersion. Together, these forces are changing how retailers attract customers, personalize experiences, manage operations and compete in increasingly digital environments. The discussion extends beyond technology into the future of retail itself. Carl shares observations from his travels across Asia, highlighting how retailers are creating energy-rich destinations that blend shopping, entertainment, food and community. These experiences offer important lessons for North American retailers seeking to remain relevant in a world where consumers increasingly have unlimited digital choices at their fingertips. Michael and Carl also examine the rise of AI-powered customer discovery, the future of search and marketing, the growing importance of trust, and why retailers must think carefully about where human value creation fits inside increasingly automated organizations. Carl explains why curiosity, organizational adaptability and a relentless focus on core business fundamentals remain essential leadership capabilities despite the rapid pace of technological change. Michael LeBlanc is the president and founder of M.E. LeBlanc & Company Inc, a senior retail advisor, keynote speaker and now, media entrepreneur. He has been on the front lines of retail industry change for his entire career. Michael has delivered keynotes, hosted fire-side discussions and participated worldwide in thought leadership panels. He brings 25+ years of brand/retail/marketing & eCommerce leadership experience with Levi's, Black & Decker, Hudson's Bay, CanWest Media, Pandora Jewellery, The Shopping Channel and Retail Council of Canada to his advisory, speaking and media practice.Michael produces and hosts a network of leading retail trade podcasts, including the award-winning No.1 independent retail industry podcast in America, Remarkable Retail with his partner, Dallas-based best-selling author Steve Dennis; Canada's top retail industry podcast The Voice of Retail and Canada's top food industry and one of the top Canadian-produced management independent podcasts in the country, The Food Professor with Dr. Sylvain Charlebois from Dalhousie University in Halifax.Rethink Retail has recognized Michael as one of the top global retail experts for the fifth year in a row, the National Retail Federation has designated Michael as on their Top Retail Voices for 2025 and 2026. Thinkers 360 has named him on of the Top 50 global thought leaders in retail.

Listen Now to 013 WTFuture Watch 013 WTFuture Howdy all! We kick things off by diving into WWDC 2026, where Apple announced a revamped, locally processed “Siri AI” that promises to understand human tone, pauses, and emotion, paving the way for truly natural conversations with robots. This inspires us to imagine using AI agents to revive and automate our vintage “Party Projector” app in hopes of striking it rich as the sole product of our new AI-powered two-person company. Hey, one can dream! :-)We then take a look at controversial claims of a new, propellantless electrostatic force that could overcome gravity without expelling mass. Naturally, this gravity-defying topic leads to a fun detour into how UFOs might use gravitational wave guides to pull space toward them, complete with a shoutout to a highly realistic Lazarian 5-D simulation designed to ‘take you there.” Happy Disclosure Time! (esp if you are NDA free” :-) Next we explore NASA’s upcoming 2028 “Dragonfly” mission, which will send a nuclear-powered, car-sized rotocraft to fly through the thick atmosphere and liquid methane lakes of Saturn’s freezing moon, Titan. Why, you might ask? It’s a moon rich in petro chemicals, think of the ‘pipeline’ we’ll build, the gas beings we’ll have to deal with!We also unravel some explosive Earth history, discussing the mysterious 1908 Tunguska airburst over Siberia, considering the latest conjecture that it may have been caused by a massive rocketing ice cube, vaporizing on impact, flattening trees for hundreds of miles, creating a warm little pond in the center.And then a nearby area’s massive stash of hidden, meteor made impact diamonds! Who says meteors have to be bad?And least we forget, there is some good news about climate repair, on how the massive 2022 Hunga Tonga underwater volcanic eruption unexpectedly created a formaldehyde cloud that helped to break down the massive amounts of planet-heating methane the volcano just ‘farted.’ It appears the volcano was cleaning up after itself! “It’s not just a bathroom deodorant, it kills ‘germs’ too!” We wrap up our eco-talk with the promising discovery of naturally occurring “white hydrogen” seeping from the ancient rocks of the Canadian Shield, which could serve as a massive new clean, cheap energy source for the planet. Think of it, if Canada goes to hydrogen and all of our petro using machines can be converted to it..we can stop thinking about the Strait of Hormuz! :-) Enjoy..

Listen Now to 012 WTFuture Crazy enough to  Actually Watch this ‘AI Slop’ 012 WTFuture — The Intelligence Age: From Hyper Local Agents to Long Distance Relationships  It appears we are now leaving the information age and diving headfirst into an “intelligence age” . But what powers this transition? Chips? Beliefs? Noble Gas?  And hyperlocal? WTF AL!”  In this jam-packed podcast episode, the hosts geek out over Nvidia’s massive announcements at Computex, highlighting how new hardware like the Vera Rubin data centers and Jetson Thor chips are bringing agentic AI and supercomputing power right to our laptops and home robots. Soon you too will likely have loads of intelligence agents doing your bidding, should you want such powers.  Having these personal AI buddies run locally instead of in the cloud not only keeps your private secrets safe from getting sold or hacked on the dark web, but it also stops the our species from burning up gigawatts of electricity just to answer our nick nack reality questions or generate click bait. The answer?  Check out what Bobby has to say about new local AI buddies! Thanks to a video submission by Dr. Jabir, our crew marveled at a mysterious giant potato-shaped heavenly body eclipsing the sun, as captured by NASA’s Perseverance rover.. “What body is it,?” you might ask. Think about it for a second and you’ll likely get this one right..still, it’s amazing to see! We also debuts a video short, humorously recounting a 59,000-year-old Neanderthal root canal successfully performed with an ancient stone routing tool! Thanks to the powers given to us by our humble AI servants, we have brought this scientific research to life! Some say the ending is  a little kitch, but Al likes it, and thinks you will to. Let us know, one way or the other. And was it fun for you to watch? The conversation then  blasts off into the quantum realm, debating Mrs. Future’s speculative theory that particles are actually micro black holes—surprisingly an idea even the AI Grok seemingly approved of!  The hosts further bend notions of reality by exploring the idea that human consciousness literally arises from quantum computations happening inside tiny carbon “microtubules” in our brain’s neurons. This quantum connection might even explain wild, Matrix-style phenomena like time dilation during life-or-death car crashes.  Finally, things get delightfully mythic as the episode wraps up with Sun’s   “Brief HerStory of Time,” exploring how the spring months got their names from powerful mythological figures, such as the starry Pleiades sisters bringing in May, and the fiercely accountable, peacock-wielding Roman goddess Juno reigning over June. btw, Happy June!

Listen Now to 011 WTFuture Watch 011 WTFuture This week’s show kicks off with the hosts untangling the literal and figurative wires of modern podcasting before nerding out over “Edge AI” running locally on smartphones to save energy and protect privacy. The banter takes a wonderfully weird turn when Al brainstorms an AI assistant specifically designed to intentionally repeat sentences not heard properly in a soothing voice to hearing-impaired friends to save them from social isolation. This quickly spirals into a debate over the origins of tinnitus; Bobby suspects it’s triggered by high-frequency Bluetooth headphones and EMFs, while Al hopefully wonders if the ringing is actually a neural data channel or a precursor to telepathy. The crew then marvels at AL’s one minute cinematic video recreating the exact day a dinosaur-killing asteroid hurled molten glass beads into the gills of paddlefish in North Dakota. Before diving into global politics, they take a delightful detour into inter-species communication, pondering whether a local crow leaving a dead bat as a “gift” is a sign of cross-species neighborliness, which even prompts them to trick the backyard flock by playing crow sounds from an app. The conversation blasts into orbit with a breakdown of recently released footage showing a pod of UFOs swarming a nuclear submarine, but the real fireworks explode during a heated debate over the impending arrival of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). Bobby and Al take a pragmatic, geopolitical stance, warning that owning personal, localized AI is necessary to defend against global manipulation, specifically citing fears that the CCP wants to win the AGI race to implement the “great firewall of all time”. This triggers a passionate disagreement with Sun, who accuses the guys of falling into a fear-mongering, male-centric “dominate and subjugate” mindset that mirrors a perpetual arms race. Hurt feelings emerge as Sun advocates for trusting our collective intelligence to build an abundant, Star Trek-style utopia rather than focusing on apocalyptic Terminator scenarios, forcing AL to frantically defend himself as a fun “cheerleader for AI” rather than a pessimist. Ultimately, the trio cools down and finds common ground in their hopes for joining a peaceful galactic community, perfectly capped off by Sun referencing Iain M. Banks’ sci-fi Culture series as a brilliant blueprint for a post-scarcity society that has successfully conquered traditional cultural hierarchies. Enjoy!

Listen Now to 010 WTFuture - Lucid Dreaming Watch 010 WTFuture - Lucid Dreaming In this interview, researcher and author Craig Sim Webb discusses the profound utility of lucid dreaming and its role in human creativity. He shares his experiences working with Stanford dream projects and designing the Nova Dreamer, a technological tool used to help people achieve consciousness while asleep. Webb highlights how famous musicians like Paul McCartney and Billy Joel have used dreams to compose legendary songs, suggesting that sleep provides access to a collective unconscious similar to a biological internet. The conversation also explores lucid living, where individuals apply insights from their dreams to solve real-world problems and navigate personal challenges. By practicing reality checks and maintaining dream journals, Webb argues that anyone can harness their inner visions to improve intuition and inspire artistic breakthroughs. He concludes by illustrating how synchronicities—such as a dream about his father leading to an award-winning film—demonstrate the powerful connection between our sleeping and waking lives.

Ryan is an aspiring underachiever. He's worked for NASA, planned and conducted his own scientific research at the CDC, and served as a foreign affairs analyst/speechwriter in the British Parliament; he's founded four companies and he's published peer-reviewed scholarship in fancy-pants journals across two separate academic disciplines. All this misguided, insecure early-life ambition mostly just taught him how disappointing and anticlimactic status-driven accomplishments can be. (His words.) This is a public episode.

Listen Now to 009 WTFuture Milky Way Edition Watch 009 WTFuture Milky Way Edition Buckle up for a wild ride across the cosmos as we dive into the latest space shenanigans.. NASA is gearing up to launch the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope, which will peer deep into our galaxy’s chaotic bulge to hunt down exoplanets and isolated black holes. We take a peek into the Galactic Bulge, the center of our galaxy. We also take a virtual tour of L98-59D, a molten “hell world” covered in lava oceans that reeks of rotten eggs. We then take you on a stunning tour of world class images of our Milky Way galaxy—including a stubborn seal photo-bombing the Milky Way for an award-winning shot—and then over to the RAMSES mission, where space agencies are teaming up to intercept the Apophis asteroid when it buzzes uncomfortably close to Earth on Friday the 13th in 2029. Next we delve into the world of inventor/philosopher Arthur Young, creator of the first Bell helicopter and pioneer in exploring the nature of human consciousness. Could his thinking behind the invention of the helicopter be key in understanding the process of human awareness? “PsyCopter thinking?” Hmm… We then play with the lines between comic books and reality, exploring how vaporized copper wire from the very first atomic bomb test created a super-rare crystal called red trinitite; strangely reminiscent of Superman’s red kryptonite; but in reality, its molecular “cages” might actually help us build better lithium-ion batteries and quantum computers. Then Bobby, reminds us of the existential threat of rogue AI hackers obliterating the traditional SWIFT banking system, which could, strangely enough, lead humanity into a futuristic, abundant digital economy. To top it all off, they track NASA’s Psyche mission heading toward an asteroid made of solid gold and platinum, and wrap up with an urgent update from scientist Stefan Burns about massive solar flares and incoming earthquakes.The future this week is delightfully chaotic. Enjoy..

Employee experience is in shambles today. How can you put it back together? Today, we're talking to Jacob Morgan, Author and Futurist at Future Ready Leadership. We discuss why organizations must return to the basics of employee experience in an AI-driven world, how leaders need to adopt five key archetypes to stay relevant, and why designing for flexibility inside your organization is the future of talent retention. All of this right here, right now, on the Modern CTO Podcast!  To connect with Jacob, check out his website here.

This past week, futurist and bestselling author Jamie Metzl joined Jessica Rosenthal on the FOX News Rundown to discuss the latest advancements in AI, as well as where the technology's rapid growth collides with ethics and morality. For example, just because a company can do more with fewer people, should that justify mass layoffs? Metzl gave his take on the changing job market and addressed the violent reactions from those fearful of AI—including the recent arrest of a man accused of throwing a Molotov cocktail at the home of OpenAI CEO Sam Altman. The suspect was reportedly found with a manifesto detailing his anger toward the growing influence of artificial intelligence. Metzl also discussed his new book, The AI 10 Commandments, in which he makes a compelling case for a new moral compass and the urgent need for a collective ethical agreement as we advance our use of artificial intelligence. We often have to edit our weekday interviews for time, but we wanted you to hear the full conversation. Today, on FOX News Rundown: Extra, we bring you the complete, unedited interview with author and futurist Jamie Metzl. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Imagine your biggest AI-powered marketing decision is challenged by your CEO or legal team. Could you, right now, defend both the outcome as well as how the AI arrived at that conclusion?Agility requires more than just speed; it demands the confidence to act on insights decisively. That confidence is impossible if the tools making the recommendations operate like an unexplainable black box.Today, we're going to talk about the growing trust deficit in enterprise AI. While we're all chasing the speed and convenience automation promises, many leaders are realizing that fast answers are useless—and even dangerous—if you can't verify or defend the logic behind them. We'll explore how to move beyond 'black-box' systems to build an AI strategy grounded in transparency, credibility, and true, defensible decision-making.To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Chris Willis, Chief Design Officer & Futurist at Domo.

Amy Webb, futurist and CEO of the Future Today Strategy Group, held a funeral for her famous annual trend report at SXSW this year. She explains to host Jeff Berman why convergences are the new critical unit of change instead. Webb says leaders must stop being distracted by "the shiny" and learn to prepare for the disruption of convergences.Link to the Convergence Outlook: https://ftsg.com/convergence/Subscribe to the Masters of Scale weekly newsletter: https://mastersofscale.com/subscribeSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
