“We have an onslaught of information the moment we open our eyes. We evolved to deal with an onslaught of information, and we are masters at focusing and ignoring vast amounts of information. Now, AI in this digital age is a relatively new stream of information, which is man-made, so we make it more salient.  So, yes, it's harder to ignore it, but people can learn to ignore it, and indeed, it's a learning process. I think it will also require learning how to teach our children. I mean, we're raising generations of kids who will take AI and the digital world as a given. To them, it will be no different than a chair and a table were to us. So they will learn to not be so distracted by chairs and tables.”

At the intersection of human ingenuity and our rapidly evolving tools, Tech, Innovation & Society-The Creative Process offers a necessary space for deep conversation. This podcast moves beyond simple gadget reviews or speculative hype to examine how technology, from foundational software to advanced AI and robotics, is actively reshaping our culture, economy, and daily lives. Each episode is built on the premise that the most meaningful progress emerges from a blend of disciplines. You’ll hear from leading scientists, engineers, and economists alongside visionary artists, writers, and environmental thinkers, creating a unique dialogue between the technical and the humanistic. These discussions delve into the real-world implications of innovation, tackling both its extraordinary potential and the complex challenges it presents for people and the planet. The focus is consistently on pathways toward a more sustainable and thoughtfully constructed future. By exploring the lives and creative practices of these diverse minds, the series illuminates how artistic sensibility informs scientific rigor and how technological understanding can expand creative possibility. Tune in for a nuanced exploration of the forces designing our tomorrow, grounded in the expertise and personal reflections of those who are shaping it.
