We are an Author and Artist who during COVID lockdowns developed a beautiful children's storybook - It was a modern day fable about an endearing donkey, who sets out one day to search for happiness. We even started an independent publishing house to bring 'stories with seeds of wisdom' to the world. Sounds idyllic, right? Well, the ride has been anything but smooth... In this series of conversation about life and living we discuss our ever-changing world - and what it all means for ordinary people like us, who are trying to leave the world in a better shape than we found it.

The discussion covers the role of AI in transforming creative processes and white-collar jobs, the limitations and potential future advancements of AI tools, and how society can prepare for these changes. We explore the history of technological disruptions in the art world, the concept of Universal Basic Income (UBI), and propose an innovative idea for equitable AI development as well as sharing the spoils that will come from AI - One for all aspiring AI founders to note! #equityfortraining

This conversation aims to spark awareness and action around the impending tidal wave of AI-driven changes.

We also discuss the implications for education and what we should be teaching our kids if traditional jobs no longer exist.
