Episode 67 - When the Ground Shifts: Adapting to AI and Tech Change
Living in a rapidly changing technological era, the development of AI reminds us that what feels stable today can shift overnight. Just as global pandemics and political scenarios are reshaping our world quickly, AI is accelerating change at an unprecedented pace. The key not just to survive but to stay at the top of the technological game is to learn to adapt, stay open to possibilities, and prepare for what the future may hold.
In this episode, Nathan and Scott primarily focus their conversation on the 2025 Fundraising AI Global Summit that happened last week and the positive changes that occurred this year compared to previous years. Throughout this conversation, they discuss how artificial intelligence is reshaping industries at a pace few people anticipated, how quickly assumptions about the stability of something can collapse, what it really means to adapt in a world where technology is moving faster than the traditional systems can keep up, what practical strategies you can try to stay strong, the research data on generative AI adaptation failure, how iteration unlocks the deeper potential of generative AI beyond surface-level tasks, the environmental and ethical implications of AI, and more.
