What if the coming age of automation and AI was the beginning of a new golden age for humanity?

There are a lot of good reasons to be concerned about the impacts of AI and automation. However, what we fail to acknowledge is all the profoundly positive change these new technologies can—and already are bringing—to society.

This next wave of automation represents a wholesale revaluing of skills, human connection, and meaningful work. When we change the rules of productivity, we start to renegotiate how society should function. The opportunity this represents can not be understated. 

If you leave this episode feeling a little more optimistic, we simply ask that you share it with someone else who could benefit from more optimism in their life.

To celebrate the launch of Hopepunk and the spirit of not just talking about a better future but building one, we will donate a meal to someone in need for the first 500 reviews we receive on our podcast.
