Fresh off their latest event (literally - they walked in the door and hit record), Megan and Nicole cozy up for a late-night debrief on futures thinking in the age of AI. From why our brains are wired for dystopia to what we’d actually do with a two-day work week, they unpack what it means to imagine better futures, and why it’s so dang hard.
Along the way:
🧠 Why clarity of direction > certainty
🔮 Why imagining 2035 made them sweat
💼 Why "human in the loop" might not be the final answer
🧃 Why Megan should never be in charge of snacks
🕴️ Plus, that one time they presented to a room full of diplomats and Megan said “brogrammer”
Also featuring: coveralls redemption, shoutouts to the volunteer dream team, and a maybe-real-maybe-not promise of AI Portland merch.
