"The future of A.I. is not pre-ordained." As we seek to go beyond the prompt and beautiful efficiencies this technology affords us, we're wondering how might we use this technological and social shift to reclaim that which makes us most human. It's up to each of us, through our collective decision making to shape this technology and decide who we will become as the AI revolution continues.

Better by design. None of us are ever really satisfied with the status quo. We find ourselves pulled toward better. That is not to say there is no place for contentment. Even in moments of peace we open ourselves up to wonder. We ask, "How might we make things better for others?", or "How might we preserve what works today to inform the shifts of tomorrow?". By partnering with those bold enough to ask beautiful questions today we stay ready for tomorrow.

We hand select music to augment our work. We use it on Zoom calls, during group and introverted brainstorming, in the car before we go to work to get into the right mindset for what we know we're going into. Maybe that's why it's known as the motivation molecule. Dopamine creates a sense of awe. It makes you feel something nothing else does.
