The best way to predict the future is to invent it. In this episode, Rob Tercek shares tools and techniques for team-based collaboration to create innovations that can change the world.  He knows his stuff.  Rob designed and launched digital platforms for games and video that are used by hundreds of millions of people today. In this special edition of the Futurists, Rob shares an easy and fun methodology for inventing new products and services used by dozens of major corporations to shape the future.

Can AI revolutionize media without sacrificing creativity and jobs? My latest episode was recorded spontaneously at the Streaming Media Conference in New York, starting with media cartographer Evan Shapiro to explain and caution us about the current media landscape, especially regarding connected TV challenges. Evan, who helmed and shaped the conference, walks the innovation talk, opting to spark  debate and dialogue instead of the usual talking head format.  "We wanted this to be a collision of different points of view and honest conversations about the real problems the media universe is facing right now," Evan explained. Per his keynote conversation with Paramount Advertising COO Steve Ellis, Evan stressed how interoperability will be the lifeblood of premium CTV content to stay competitive against tech giants like Google, Amazon, and Walmart...or face big changes in business. "The notion of interoperability now is just table stakes. If you're gonna compete against Google and Amazon on connected television, that's how you're gonna have to operate." Catch Evan's POV on that, the new Nielsen Gauge, and more in his extensive content offerings: https://linktr.ee/ESHAPTV Next, Robert Tercek joined to tackle some of the most controversial topics in artificial intelligence and media, from legal battles over using copyrighted works for training LLMs to fears of AI displacing jobs. Robert is a renowned strategist, global authority on digital innovation, award-winning author, and educator -- AND the co-host of The Futurists podcast (which is emblematic of his approach to digital creativity and embracing AI.) He says the media industry has often reacted to technological advances (remember Hollywood's reaction to the VCRs?) with trepidation, but he challenges dystopian views, saying AI should be seen as a powerful tool, not a threat. "My recommendation is you should lean into AI. Right now is a great time to get smart about it. This is a tool that potentially can give you superpowers." Providing an unexpected master class in copyright history and best practices, his was a passionate plea for embracing change and innovation. "Half of humanity is below average as writers. If ChatGPT can make that half consider themselves better writers, then that's a net win for humanity." And as I joked, "and a net loss for me as a writer?" (Note: These show notes were partly AI-assisted!) Not to worry, as he believes unique human qualities like curiosity remain irreplaceable, even as AI levels the playing field. (Don't miss my discussion on synthetic voice in Epi 20 with John Rosso, as well.)  Read about Robert at: https://roberttercek.com/ And subscribe now so you don't miss Part 2 with more insights from Evan, joined by 17-year-old Braden Blacker who is already leveraging digital media full time to “disrupt the creator economy.” These engaging discussions offer a balanced perspective on ensuring CTV, AI, and content advances enhance, not hurt, human creativity.

Accelerating Uncertainty What happens when society is subject to accelerated change? Now we know: uncertainty and widespread panic. March 2023 was the month when the old systems began to collapse and entirely new systems were launched. In one month we experienced a viral run on banks, the launch of AI superpowers, and the exposure of systematic deceit at a major news publisher. In this special edition of The Futurists, co-hosts Brett King and Robert Tercek review current events through the lens of the future. Who profits from uncertainty and confusion? How do the merchants of doubt leverage social and traditional media to undermine faith in conventional norms and governance?  Can the trustworthiness of machine learning systems be certified?  By whom?  Discussion topics include: democracy versus autocracy in a time of rapid change; the business of social inequality; the failure of Silicon Valley Bank; lies and manipulation at Fox News; the false dichotomy of political parties;  the inaccuracy of ChatGPT; the advent of robotic corporations in the clouds; why it's more profitable to break consensus than to build it; and the greater chaos is yet to come.  Brett King is a world-renowned entrepreneur, futurist, speaker, international bestselling author, and media personality.

India's Big AmbitionsIn this weeks episode of The Futurists we talk to author Gunjan Bagla, a leading figure in India-US trade relationships and commerce. Bagla argues that while China is seen as a massive threat to the US, India is a natural ally of the west having supported outsourcing over the last 4 decades, and being more aligned on policy. But like China, India has big ambitions and will overtake China as the most populous nation this decade. Will that translate into economic growth or does India need infrastructure investment to level up as a global economic powerhouse?

The Next Renaissance Anders Sorman-Nilsson is a Swedish futurist living in Australia, but he believes that humanity is on the cusp of a new renaissance where humanity finds purpose beyond consumption and market profit. He calls out human systems that are coming to a natural conclusion due to this emerging thinking, including the damage that fossil fuel companies and others have done to our ecosystem in the name of profits. Ultimately, Anders is an optimist but he thinks that human behavior and technological leaps and bounds don't necessarily align, but it's navigating the conflict between our long-held traditions, global conflicts, and climate disasters, along with our rapidly advancing technical capabilities that will define humanity for centuries to come.

Thomas Frey is who you will undoubtedly find when you do a Google search on “futurist speaker”. Having shared the stage with many A-listers, Frey has earned that moniker. But his true skill demonstrated repeatedly in this week's episode is taking an event or innovation and the extrapolating the future. In this episode we see him do that in real time. It's a unique glimpse into the futurist process. https://futuristspeaker.com Why a futurist? As a futurist, my goal is to expand our understanding of the future. Every day, thousands of emerging technologies spring to life, thousands of researchers make new discoveries, and thousands of new trends start to reveal themselves. As we move down the path of advancing technology, our relationship with the future has never been clearer; making this both the most exciting and scariest time to be alive, in all human history. There is a constant battle being waged over the needs of the present vs. the needs of the future. Naturally the future cannot be our only priority; otherwise, we lose our ability to function in the present. Near-term issues invariably take precedent over long-term potential; yet, our ability to prioritize importance is directly tied to our vision of the future. Still, it is our vision of the future that determines our actions today. I use this phrase a lot: “The future creates the present!” Yes, this is just the opposite of what most people think. They believe the work we're doing today will automatically create the future, but from a little different perspective, it is the images of the future that we hold in our head that determines the decisions we'll make today. Welcome to the Futurists where your hosts Brett King and Robert Tercek interview the worlds foremost super-forecasters, thought leaders, technologists, entrepreneurs and futurists building the world of tomorrow. Together we will explore how our world will radically change as AI, bioscience, energy, food and agriculture, computing, the metaverse, the space industry, crypto, resource management, supply chain and climate will reshape our world over the next 100 years.

In today's episode of Breaking Banks, we feature two of our sister podcasts, each with an eye to the future.We start with Jennifer Tescher's EMERGE Everywhere. Jennifer sits down with Shamina Singh, Founder and President of the Mastercard Center for Inclusive Growth, to discuss the quest for a more sustainable and equitable future, and how she's developing solutions to make the global economy work for everyone. Then, we introduce you to the newest podcast in the Breaking Banks' family, The Futurists with hosts Robert Tercek and Brett King, as they take you into the future with renowned thought leaders who are creating the future of tomorrow. In this piece we spotlight PJ Manney, a leading thinker focusing on the impact of artificial intelligence in respect to ethics and how humanity will adapt.

In this week's show Robert Tercek joins Brett King and Richard Petty, the authors of a new book titled The Rise of Technosocialism, to discuss how 21st century economics will be reframed by inequality, automation and climate change. Right now inflation is a massive issue, but it's just the start of some seismic changes to core economics set to hit humanity over the next few decades. Which future scenario is likely? Luddistan, Failedistan, Technosocialism or the US' Neo-Feudalism?

In this first episode of the Futurists we meet our hosts Brett King and Robert Tercek. We get right into why we created the podcast and why forecasting the future has never been more critical than it is today. As we launch this new podcast our intent is to seek out the world's foremost thinkers, experts and visionaries building the future of tomorrow. Join us on this journey and we will see you in the Future!

Robert Tercek, an experienced and innovative keynote speaker, shares his advice and tips for fighting off distractions that public speakers of all levels can apply during their own presentations. Audience members are very distracted these days, and it can be difficult to look out into a room and see all of your audience looking down at their phones or computers. The key is to frame your talk in a unique way so that it keeps their attention and also not be phased if it seems your audience is not looking at you anymore -- just assume they are tweeting and making notes of all the great points you are saying! Robert is a dynamic and engaging presenter, and his passion for public speaking shines in this episode when he talks about needing to practice and know your material to make your presentation worth the audience's time. He even had Dayna clapping and applauding at one point because he was so compelling and in his element! It was a privilege and a pleasure to speak with Robert. He left us feeling motivated and inspired to be better speakers for our audience, and we hope you will feel that way as well after listening!

Rob poses questions to consider, identifies trends and advantages we can capture, as well as alerting us to dematerialization’s impact and how to work with it rather than be disrupted by it.   KEY TAKEAWAYS   [02:56] Humans are used to adapting for short crises which made 2020 endless and hard.   [03:55] Business decisions were paralyzed as many people were unable to decide how to move forward in 2020.   [04:27] There is light at the end of the tunnel in 2021 with the vaccine rolling out.   [05:02] The vaccine doesn’t mean ‘normality’, but we can start to plan to go back to the office.   [06:10] COVID19 has just accelerated the process the internet began.   [06:53] Companies are not going to abandon the investment they made in work-from-home infrastructure leading to two kinds of workforce—distributed and onsite.   [07:56] Executives secret desires to go back to the office and concerns about remote working.   [08:46] Questions to consider as leaders assess strategic options about how to configure their workplaces for 2022.   [10:04] Companies may use a faulty forecasting process when planning for beyond crisis mode.   [10:57] Organizations can mistakenly think they are the only ones dealing with these circumstances.   [11:41] What is the impact of the broad shift in consumer behavior—changed habits and products they are no longer buying?   [12:35] Invest for the future will not be to rebuild the company as it was in 2018 and 2019.   [13:47] For B2B businesses, user and developer conferences are turning into tutorials for users—creating new habits and switching costs.   [14:57] How to use data to counter some of the loss in face-to-face meetings for sales people.   [16:47] Putting the IT department and CIO at forefront of rebuilding for the future.   [18:02] The importance of HR gathering and tracking data for C-suite discussions.   [18:46] The balance of responsibility between employer and employee to maintain skillsets.   [22:37] Rob describes how to create an actionable forecast.   [23:42] The only way you can tell if a prediction is accurate is after it’s happened.   [24:40] Why confidence intervals and probabilities matter.   [27:18] How to adjust for different geographic restrictions and vaccine rollout to develop a rough hypothesis and timeline.   [31:39] For companies to be laying a foundation in 2021 for 2022 and beyond. Robert thinks we will have two quarters this year that will not be great.   [32:19] Plan to deploy new digital infrastructure for 2022, since it usually takes 12-18 months.   [34:07] Robert describes the significant impact of COVID19 on digital healthcare.   [35:59] What smart companies are doing differently now to gain market share.   [37:00] Critical focus needs to be on the customer journey, which may be different now.   [38:15] We have to have more self-awareness, especially about our emotional state   [39:27] The impact of digital media immersion which can act as an outrage-generator.   [40:56] Disruption is scary. It’s hard. Cutting people some slack is being empathetic.   [42:49] IMMEDIATE ACTION TIP: What parts of your work and life can—and will—be replaced by software or ‘dematerialized’? Consider carefully taking action or leave the opportunity for someone else!     RESOURCES   Robert Tercek on LinkedIn   Robert Tercek on Facebook   Robert Tercek on Twitter — @Superplex   Roberttercek.com     QUOTES   “There is a feeling, it’s a depressing thought, that 2021 seems like it’s going to be a continuation of 2020, and everyone knows 2020 was a terrible year on many levels.”   “Based on the current deployment of the vaccine, it seems unlikely we’re going to be through this COVID-19 until the latter half of 2021 and it could be as late as 2022. To set expectations.”   “You can’t turn back the hands of time. Many big organizations reallocated massive budgets to create a structure to work from home. That investment isn’t going to go away.”   “We lost two channels of information: Face-to-face meetings and conferences, but what we’ve gained is a different channel of feedback which is real-time usage data.”   “Everyone knows that we live in a changing world. Everyone knows that sudden dislocation seems to be the theme of this century.”
