Welcome fellow futurists and big thinkers to the Think Forward podcast.  My name is Steve and I am a futurist. Welcome to our third episode, where we greet our first official guest, Dr. Ja-Nae Duane. a behavioral scientist at Brown University who researches how organizations can prepare for disruptive events and adapt their systems and behaviors.  In this episode, Dr. Duane dives into the world of digital nudges and their darker counterpart, dark nudges. We cover the future of education, future of work and how to adapt in this emerging era of AI. She leaves us with a bold prediction about humanity's need to radically change our relationship with nature and the possibility of a sooner-than-expected "mass exodus" to Mars. Ja-Nae's site: www.ja-nae.ioSteve's site: www.stevenfisher.ioThink Forward Show: www.thinkforwardshow.comThank you for joining me on this ongoing journey into the future.
