We love to believe AI will just make us faster and better at what we already do, but what if the whole game changes? What if the only thing that actually matters in three years is imagination — and we've spent decades training people to strip that quality out? This week, we sit down with a deck of provocative cards Marc designed for his new firm, Libra Collective, that forces leaders to make hard choices about the future. We debate whether we'll pay for outcomes instead of hours, if processes will vanish entirely, and why the best engineers are realizing their dream job is about to become babysitting AI agents all day. Paul makes a brilliant contrarian case: processes will become more critical, not less, because compute is expensive and agents need structure to stay efficient. We also touch on dark data as the last real competitive moat, culture as the only currency left to recruit talent, and why OpenAI won't be profitable until 2030. Plus: Paul's chaotic stint as a birthday party referee, Marc's three-night detox confession, and the legendary saga of Afro Man vs. Officer Poundcake.
