ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗
We're living through a moment of unprecedented technological possibility, yet most people only hear about one version of the future—usually the most dramatic or profitable one. AI will replace all jobs. Biotech will solve everything. Space is our escape plan. But these singular narratives obscure the reality: we have choices, and those choices will determine which future we actually get. Each episode of Possible Futures explores the lesser-known possibilities and alternative pathways that exist beyond the usual.
