I Think Tomorrow

In this episode I’m joined by Liz, a comedy writer and content strategist (NY Times, HuffPost). We discuss the limitations of AI with respect to writing and beyond. We cover the Hollywood strikes, whether AI can write a whole script (spoiler: it can't), and the coming skill gap when few junior writers are around to replace the senior ones "managing" AI. Liz shares her own experiment...

Modern life has removed many of the problems our brains evolved to solve. Ironically this doesn't calm us down, in fact quite the opposite. In this conversation, we explore why, when life gets easier, the mind often creates anxiety, dissatisfaction, and self-made problems instead. Drawing on ideas from Dopamine Nation , we talk about boredom, meaning, and why deliberately choosing hard, meani...

This episode went a little off the rails towards the end, but not before we cover a lot of ground. It is messy, honest, sometimes awkward, and exactly why we love doing this podcast.  We talk about why we refuse to brand Odysi as an “AI consultancy,” even though they we AI every day. We unpack what a product studio really is, how we think about the line between products and services, and why a “bo...

After a busy summer, I Think Tomorrow is back and we are having an informal conversation about what it's like to build a tech agency from the ground up. From working with AI and new technologies to the challenges of selling your own expertise, this conversation digs deep into the emotional and practical realities of bootstrapping, finding your first clients, and pushing through the early unce...

In this episode we, Thomas and Mike explore how generative AI is reshaping the way we think, create, and understand ourselves. Starting with a quote from Ted Chiang (“ChatGPT is a blurry JPEG of the internet”), we unpack what it means to be an author when machines can generate stories, music, and ideas that surprise even their human collaborators. We discuss the philosophical and practical questio...

In this episode, Mike gets interviewed by his good friend and business partner, Thomas Trincado, to explore some of the deepest questions AI is forcing us to ask. What is intelligence? Can machines be conscious? Does intelligence require a survival instinct? We explore how AI development mirrors and deepens our own search for self-understanding, blending philosophy, personal stories, and practical...

Dating apps have revolutionized how we meet, but in doing so, they often short-circuit the vulnerability required for real connection. After going on 25+ dates in one month, I discovered that while apps are great at generating matches, they rarely help us transition to meaningful, in-person relationships—and may even trap us in fantasy connections that never materialize. These platforms thrive on...

In this episode, I sit down with my good friend Elinor to talk about navigating conversations about Israel and Palestine in the wake of October 7th 2023. We recount some difficult discussions, why it’s been so easy to feel misunderstood — or to misunderstand others, and how our backgrounds shape the way we see things. We also get into how tech — especially social media and resulting disembodied co...

In this first episode, I explore a deeply personal topic—the sudden death of my brother Christopher in 2023 at just 27 years old. Joined by my surviving brother James, we reflect on Chris’s life, our grief, and the strange dissonance of losing someone so young. We end by exploring whether AI could—or should—play a role in preserving and even recreating a loved one’s consciousness.
