Although a history buff, I also love imagining the future - especially through a more hopeful lens. So I was extra excited to visit with Byron Reese on the topic of “mastering the future”. I connected with Byron via LinkedIn a while back and saw that he has a fascinating new book out (link below). Byron is an Austin-based entrepreneur with a quarter-century of experience building and running technology companies. He is a recognized authority on AI and holds a number of technology patents. In addition, he is a futurist with a strong conviction that technology will help bring about a new golden age of humanity.
We both answered the following questions:
What makes you hopeful about the future of humanity?
What current thinking/mindset is the greatest threat to the future?
What is your most surprising prediction for the future?
