The Impossible Network 042: Reclaiming Our Humanity With Caroline Chubb Calderon
Guest Overview
Futurist and humanist Caroline Chubb Calderon thinks a lot about what it will mean to be human in the age of intelligent machines. This child of the world that grew up speaking five languages and learned what it meant to be human at an early age from a mentally-ill mother and an inspirational father, gives us a glimpse into how we might just reimagine the future of humanity.
This interview is a two-parter.
In Part-One we explore Caroline’s nomadic upbringing, the challenges of living with her schizophrenic mother, the inspirational role of her father, her focus on finding thin slices of joy, her love of curiosity, how vision and serendipity led her to working as an innovation consultant, and how the future called for her to create Hello Humanity — a company preparing humans to lead, live, work, and thrive in our AI future.
We discuss her perspectives on the forces that are shaping our future, the possibilities and risks in an AI-driven world, the need for a global moral compass, and so much more...
I hope you enjoy part one of this optimistic but contemplative exploration of humanity in the age of AI technology.
