What do you think?
We're fascinated by how technology reshapes the way we think, work, and connect - sometimes in ways we don’t see coming. The world is shifting faster than ever, and we can’t help but explore where it’s all headed. Join me in asking the questions that make us rethink what’s possible.
What Will ‘Having a Job’ Mean in 20 Years?
Mar 3, 2025
Work has always evolved. Once, it was about survival—hunting, farming, trading goods. Then came specialized skills, factories, and office jobs. Today, many roles revolve around information, decision-making, and creativity. But as AI automates more tasks—everything from data analysis to customer service to design—will the very concept of “a job” change?
In 20 years, will a job still mean holding a defined role within a company, or will work become more fluid? Some predict AI will handle routine tasks, freeing humans for strategy, creativity, and innovation. Others argue AI will reduce the need for human labor, shifting work toward short-term projects, self-employment, or even a world where traditional jobs are rare.
And what about purpose? Many people find identity and fulfillment in their work. If AI takes over large portions of labor, will we redefine success beyond productivity or will new, unimaginable industries emerge?
One thing is certain: AI isn’t just changing how we work—it’s forcing us to rethink why we work.
What do you think? Will we still have traditional jobs in 20 years, or is AI leading us toward an entirely new way of working?

Is AI Making Us More or Less Social?
Feb 20, 2025
AI powers everything from personalized recommendations to chatbot companions, making it easier than ever to stay connected. But is it actually bringing us closer together—or just making interactions more convenient? We text instead of call, let AI auto-reply to emails, and rely on algorithms to suggest who we should engage with. In some ways, AI removes friction, helping us maintain relationships effortlessly. But in other ways, it might be making socializing feel transactional—faster, easier, but maybe a little emptier.
Are we building deeper connections, or just more efficient ones? If AI can predict what we want to say before we say it, does that strengthen our relationships or weaken them?
What do you think? Is AI helping us connect in more meaningful ways, or is it just making human interaction another thing to optimize?
Will AI Make the 3-Day Workweek a Reality or Just Make Us Work Faster?
Feb 3, 2025
AI is automating emails, analyzing data, summarizing meetings, and even drafting reports—so in theory, we should be working less, right? The promise of AI is efficiency, and some argue that could finally pave the way for a 3-day workweek. But history suggests otherwise. Every major productivity leap—computers, the internet, smartphones—made us work more, not less. AI might eliminate repetitive tasks, but will companies use that saved time to give employees a break, or just squeeze more output into fewer hours?
Maybe the real question isn’t whether AI allows for a 3-day workweek, but whether companies will ever embrace it. After all, if AI can optimize everything except our tendency to stay busy, are we really getting anywhere?
What do you think? Will AI finally give us more time off, or just raise the bar for what’s expected?
Can Anyone Be an Artist with AI?
Jan 14, 2025
Art used to mean years of practice—honing a craft, mastering technique, finding a unique voice. Now, with AI, anyone can generate an image, compose music, or write a poem in seconds. But does that make them an artist? If creativity is about ideas and expression rather than technical skill, then AI is just another tool—like a camera, a synthesizer, or Photoshop. But if anyone can create stunning visuals with a few prompts, does artistry lose its meaning?
What do you think? Does AI democratize creativity, or does it take something away from it?
Is AI the Ultimate Cheat Code for Life?
Jan 2, 2025
Remember when you had to actually memorize facts, figure out directions, or write your own emails? AI has turned those once-essential skills into optional conveniences. From ChatGPT drafting responses to AI tools designing presentations, optimizing schedules, and even giving relationship advice, it’s starting to feel like AI is handing out shortcuts for nearly everything. But if AI makes life easier, does that mean it’s also making it better?
There’s a fine line between efficiency and dependence. AI can help us work faster, make smarter decisions, and even unlock creativity, but at what point does convenience turn into complacency? If an AI assistant can write, plan, and think for us, are we still learning, growing, and developing new skills? Or are we outsourcing the very things that make us human?
On the flip side, maybe AI isn’t a cheat code—it’s just the next step in how we evolve. The calculator didn’t make math meaningless; it just changed what we focused on. Google didn’t make knowledge obsolete; it made searching for information second nature. Maybe AI isn’t making us lazier—it’s giving us the space to focus on higher-level thinking, creativity, and innovation.
So, is AI really the ultimate cheat code for life, or just the latest tool that forces us to redefine what really matters?
What do you think? Is AI helping us unlock our potential, or are we just becoming players on autopilot?
Could AI Help You Argue Better With Your Partner?
December 11, 2024
Arguments are a part of every relationship—sometimes over big things, sometimes over who left the lights on again. But what if AI could step in, not as a referee, but as a relationship coach? Imagine an AI that analyzes past conversations, detects emotional patterns, and suggests phrasing that diffuses tension instead of escalating it. Could it help us argue better—more productively, with less defensiveness and fewer regrettable words?
On one hand, AI could be the ultimate communication coach, offering insights into how both people feel and translating frustration into something constructive. It could remind you, “Last time you used this tone, it didn’t go well,” or nudge you to pause before firing off a snarky remark.
But does outsourcing emotional intelligence to AI take something away from human connection? Part of growing in a relationship is learning to navigate disagreements ourselves. If AI is scripting our responses or analyzing our every word, do we risk losing authenticity?
Maybe AI won’t resolve every argument, but it could help us listen better, understand patterns, and communicate more effectively. Or maybe some fights just need to happen the old-fashioned way.
What do you think? Would AI make arguments healthier, or is it best to leave love and conflict to humans?
AI-Powered Job Interviews: Can a Bot Really Read Between the Lines?
November 29, 2024
AI is making job interviews more efficient, helping recruiters sort through applications and assess candidates faster. But when it comes to truly understanding a person—their passion, adaptability, and those unspoken moments of connection—humans still have the edge.
Technology can analyze words and patterns, but it takes human intuition to recognize when someone has the spark to grow into a role or the personality that fits a team’s culture. AI might assist in streamlining hiring, but great hiring decisions come from the ability to read between the lines, sense potential, and connect on a deeper level.
The best future isn’t AI replacing human judgment—it’s AI supporting it, handling the routine so people can focus on what really matters: finding the right people, not just the right resumes.
What do you think? Can AI complement human instincts in hiring, or are some decisions best left purely to people?
Can AI Make Music That Moves Us—or Just Something That Sounds Cool?
November 12, 2024
AI can compose symphonies, generate pop hits, and even mimic legendary musicians with eerie accuracy. It can analyze patterns in music, predict what melodies people will like, and create songs that are technically perfect. But can it move us the way human-made music does?
Music isn’t just about notes and structure—it’s about emotion, experience, and something deeply personal that AI doesn’t (yet) have. The greatest songs aren’t just well-constructed; they capture heartbreak, joy, rebellion, and nostalgia. AI might be able to replicate the sound of a love song, but can it truly feel love?
That said, AI could become an incredible tool for musicians—helping with inspiration, experimentation, and production. Maybe the future of music isn’t AI replacing human creativity, but enhancing it.
What do you think? Can AI ever create music that makes us feel something, or will it always be just an impressive imitation?
Will AI Ever Truly Understand Human Emotions?
October 21, 2024
AI can analyze facial expressions, detect sentiment in text, and even respond with empathy—but does that mean it understands human emotions? It can recognize sadness in a voice or excitement in a message, but does it feel anything? Or is it just really good at pattern recognition?
Humans don’t just express emotions; we experience them. Our feelings are shaped by memories, context, and even contradictions—something AI doesn’t have. AI can tell you that someone sounds frustrated, but can it grasp the deeper, unspoken layers of why?
That said, AI is getting better at emotional intelligence in practical ways—helping customer service reps respond with care, supporting mental health apps, even offering companionship. But at the end of the day, true understanding may require something AI lacks: the ability to be human.
What do you think? Will AI ever go beyond detecting emotions and actually understand them, or is this where humans will always have the edge?
AI Grocery Shopping: Convenience or Just Another Way to Manipulate Us?
October 1, 2024
AI-powered grocery shopping promises to make life easier—auto-replenishing your fridge, suggesting recipes based on what you have, even optimizing your cart for budget and nutrition. No more impulse buys, no more forgetting the milk. Sounds great, right?
But what if AI isn’t just helping—it’s nudging? Algorithms can push products based on profit margins, steer you toward sponsored brands, or subtly influence your choices based on what companies want you to buy. If your smart fridge suggests a snack, is it because it’s best for you or best for the retailer’s bottom line?
Of course, AI can also work for consumers—helping reduce food waste, find the best deals, and customize healthier shopping habits. Maybe the key isn’t rejecting AI-driven shopping, but being aware of who’s really in control.
What do you think? Is AI grocery shopping a game-changer for convenience, or just a new way to shape our decisions?
Is AI the Ultimate Middle Manager?
September 14, 2024
Middle managers juggle a tricky balance—translating company goals into team action, resolving conflicts, optimizing workflows, and keeping morale high. But what happens when AI steps in? Could AI actually be the perfect middle manager—efficient, unbiased, and immune to office politics?
AI is already helping with scheduling, performance tracking, and decision-making. It can analyze employee productivity, predict burnout, and even draft feedback emails. It doesn’t play favorites, forget deadlines, or get overwhelmed by emotions. In theory, AI could take over many of the routine tasks managers handle, allowing teams to function with less friction.
But leadership isn’t just about efficiency—it’s about people. A great manager understands motivation, mentors employees, and builds trust. AI might be able to suggest solutions to workplace issues, but can it inspire? Can it sense when someone is struggling beyond what performance metrics show? Can it foster creativity, loyalty, and company culture?
Perhaps the best future isn’t AI replacing middle managers but enhancing them. AI can handle the data-driven aspects of management—analyzing trends, optimizing workflows—while humans focus on what truly matters: coaching, collaboration, and the emotional intelligence that makes workplaces thrive.
What do you think? Could AI ever truly manage people, or will leadership always require a human touch?
Would You Let AI Write Your Dating Profile?
August 28, 2024
Crafting the perfect dating profile is tough—too generic, and you’re forgettable; too quirky, and you risk scaring people off. But what if AI could do it for you? It could analyze successful profiles, optimize word choices, and highlight your best traits in a way that maximizes matches. Sounds great, right?
But dating isn’t just about appearing perfect—it’s about authenticity. If AI writes your profile, are people matching with you or an algorithm’s version of you? Maybe AI can help with the awkward first draft, but the real magic happens when you bring yourself into the conversation.
What do you think? Would you trust AI to find the right words for love?
If AI Can Do Your Job in 5 Minutes, What Should You Do With the Other 7 Hours and 55 Minutes?
August 14, 2024
AI is getting scary good at automating tasks—analyzing data, drafting reports, even writing code. If the bulk of your job could be done in minutes, what happens to the rest of your day? Do we finally get the long-promised 3-day workweek? Or do we just find new ways to stay busy?
Historically, every wave of automation has led to different work, not less work. When computers took over repetitive calculations, we didn’t stop working—we shifted to solving bigger problems. Maybe AI isn’t about replacing us, but freeing us to focus on creativity, strategy, and innovation.
Or maybe, just maybe, it’s time to rethink the entire concept of a workday. If efficiency skyrockets, should work shrink to match? Or will we just keep cramming in more tasks, proving our value with busyness instead of actual impact?
What do you think? If AI saves you hours of work, should you work less—or just work differently?
Would You Watch a Movie Written Entirely by AI?
August 2, 2024
You sit down with popcorn, press play, and watch a film written entirely by AI. The dialogue? Generated. The plot twists? Algorithmically optimized. The emotional beats? Crafted from millions of past scripts. Sounds impressive—but would it actually be good?
AI can predict what makes a story engaging, but can it create something unexpected? Would it ever write a cult classic like Pulp Fiction or an existential mind-bender like Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind? Or would we just get a never-ending loop of rehashed blockbusters with slightly different names?
Maybe AI will become a powerful collaborator—helping screenwriters brainstorm, break writer’s block, or refine dialogue. But the magic of storytelling often comes from the irrational, the messy, the deeply human. And that’s something no algorithm has quite cracked.
What do you think? Could AI ever write a movie you’d actually love, or would it always feel… artificial?
