future here now…

Much of the coming transformation will depend on the stories and narratives that are adopted and the culture that is carried forward. Metaphors matter. Having witnessed the rise of transformational technology on Wall Street, the Internet and Web in Silicon Valley and more recently machine learning through the lens of a startup listening to stories at scale leveraging AI, one thing is clear: The culture that surrounds these transformations is as important as the technology itself. We need future architects and archeologists who can prioritize and capture the human story - an operating system based on the wisdom of our ;ived experience as context - ancestral and cultural intelligence through storytelling to guide the use of our artificial intelligence.
