Iliana Oris Valiente CPA,CA, Episode 53’s guest, is not your average executive. She's a blockchain pioneer, an A.I. advocate, and a passionate voice for human potential. She’s also the youngest-ever managing director in the history of Accenture Canada. Additionally, she has a digital twin named Laila and is part of the pioneering clone club. In this episode’s conversation, Iliana speaks about A.I. and its transformative impact on the future of work, creativity, and societal trends. She shares her vision of a human-centered future where A.I. augments rather than replaces human creativity, and how the democratization of powerful A.I. tools will raise the bar for innovation. Iliana discusses the concept of digital humans and the emergence of a multi-agent workforce, in which A.I. assistants like her own digital twin will interact and collaborate with their human counterparts, including as chiefs of staff. She highlights the shift towards generalist knowledge workers and the amplified role of creative directors in an A.I.-powered world. Iliana also emphasizes the importance of responsible A.I. and the principles guiding its development at Accenture.

How do you keep your agency in the age of A.I.? We’re back with a new episode for Creativity Squared — our 50th one! 🥳 This week we’re diving into resilience and agency in the age of A.I. with our guest Sam Jordan, a futurist on a mission to spread “plausible optimism.” As a Manager at Future Today Institute, she helps clients navigate and plan for unpredictable futures with certainty. Sam also wrote on computing, the metaverse, space, and A.I. in the 2024 Emerging Tech Trends Report, which is released annually by the company’s renowned founder and CEO, Amy Webb, at her equally famous SXSW keynote. With a background in economics and data science and a passion for sci-fi, Sam found her dream job in strategic foresight, writing evidence-based sci-fi to inform real-world strategies. In this episode, you'll hear Sam's insights on the convergence of A.I., biotech, and connected ecosystems, creating a "supercycle" unlike any general-purpose technology that we’ve seen before. We discuss the consolidation of power in tech, the importance of resilience, and the need for experimentation during this transitionary period. We also dive into fascinating trends like using human brain cells to power chips, universal basic income to address the social safety net, and the importance of human purpose and meaning during this seismic change. Sam also shares her favorite sci-fi influences and emphasizes the power of storytelling and scenario planning to shape the future.

Founder & Podcast Host of #CreativitySquared on A.I. & Creativity | Co-Founder & CEO of Sociality Squared | Co-Host CincyAI, Largest A.I. Meetup in Southwest Ohio | Global Speaker | Join My Free A.I. Newsletter Today!
Yemi A.D. is an artist who’s going to the Moon! 🚀 I first met Yemi at the Austrian Federal Economic Chamber's BOLD Community networking event at SXSW, but it wasn’t until he was on stage with Jeffrey Cardenas revealing Apptronik's humanoid robot Apollo — which was trained on his dance moves! — that I learned he was selected to be on the dearmoon mission! Yemi, a multidisciplinary creative force and Czech-Nigerian choreographer, was chosen from among 1 million candidates to be a crew member of dearMoon, marking the first all-civilian space trip around the Moon. He’s one of the eight artists chosen to join Japanese entrepreneur and art collector Yusaku Maezawa, who believes art has the power to promote world peace. Yemi’s love of movement and finding freedom in movement are intertwined into all aspects of his life, which you’ll hear in the conversation. In this episode, listen to Yemi's incredible journey from growing up as the only Black child where he was raised in Czechoslovakia to his rise as a creative powerhouse working with Kanye West to founding Moonshot Platform to traveling into space. We also dive into how Yemi's studies of indigenous cultures worldwide gave him insight into the intelligence of movement. He also shares the importance of representation in the tech industry to ensure a more inclusive and human-centered approach to A.I. and robotics — he’s a futurist and proud that the word “robot” was created by the Czech writer Karel Čapek. Yemi believes that the best way to predict the future is to create it, and he's doing just that. Tune in to discover his vision for the future he’s working to create.

With the golden ticket to test out OpenAI's Sora, Nik Kleverov joins Creativity Squared to discuss his experience with the text-to-video model and the childlike creativity it unleashed in him. Not only is Nik an OpenAI Collaborator, but he’s also the Co-founder and Chief Creative Officer of Native Foreign, a hybrid creative agency-production company based in LA. It’s been almost exactly one year since my interview with Chad Nelson, who collaborated with Nik on “Critterz,” the groundbreaking first-ever animated short film that was 100% designed using A.I. visuals produced by DALL·E. Today, you’ll hear Nik’s experience working with Sora in addition to other text-to-video tools. Nik’s perspective is informed by working with clients on commercials, as a filmmaker, and on a team creating original IP. Nik also shares an agency owner’s perspective, discussing why Native Foreign is going all-in as next gen creatives and establishing an A.I. labs division within the agency. I loved hearing about one of his creative projects, which he got out of his vault to bring to life and that will evolve alongside GenAI video capabilities. In our conversation, Nik dives into the creative process, the ever-changing A.I. landscape, and the paradigm shift underway in the advertising industry. Artists need to be part of the development of A.I. tools and this is your chance to hear what Nik is sharing with OpenAI related to Sora and how you can stay ahead of the curve with A.I. and storytelling — enjoy!
