I had a good conversation with Henrique Dias in Brazil. He created a nonprofit called No Harm and is using AI to help clinical pharmacists evaluate drug treatments and lab results — not to replace them, but to support better care.

@scottsantens.com I'm looking for someone to interview about #UBI on my podcast Imaginize.World. Slogan "shape the future before it shapes us". UBI is an essential part of our futures and we need to better understand it.

Imagine graduating into this jobs market, where suddenly, the entry-level jobs market is 11%-55% smaller depending on the job. Now imagine that you're starting college right now. What is the jobs market going to look like in 2029? No one knows for sure.

Universal basic income can't wait any longer.

Janka Krings-Klebe explores how to lead in the AI era.
She makes critical distinctions between AI and human decisions. If more people understood this, they would not be so afraid of AI! (That's my comment, not Janka's!)

Want to Rethink Reality? Start With Sci-Fi

In my conversation with Jillian Reilly, she reframed sci-fi as a serious tool for breaking mental limits, a permission slip to think beyond the default, and dreaming up new worlds when the old ones stop working.

YouTube video by Imaginize World Cortney Harding: Will the next path be interesting?

Thinking about what Cortney Harding said when we talked a few months ago:
We’re in a middle space where new technologies have not yet found their place: VR, AR, spatial computing, crypto, AI. We over estimate them and under estimate them.
