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 “boring” chatbot project raises deep questions about what humans do in conversations that models still cannot. Along the way we get lost in David Deutsch, universal explainers, explosive AI growth, and why AI on its own will not change the world without a lot of human judgment, structure, and unglamorous work.

Authorship, Creativity, and the Future of Work in the Age of AI
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 questions surrounding AI-generated content, the shifting value we place on craft and effort, and the risks of outsourcing too much of our thinking. The conversation touches on authorship, productivity, memory, and the idea that we may already be extending our minds through technology, often in subtle and unintended ways.From Mozart to Moravec’s Paradox, from Google Maps to Neuralink, this episode is a deep dive into how AI is challenging what it means to be human, and what we might become next.Find out more about the work we’re doing:🌐 Odysi Studio — https://odysi.studio🔗 Mike’s LinkedIn — /michaelvtucci🔗 Thomas’s LinkedIn — /thomastrincado”

Digital Dating: Does Tech Help or Hurt Our Chance at Love?
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 keeping us swiping, not settling down, optimizing for engagement over emotional growth. Yet, meeting face-to-face (doing the hard thing) was where I found the most value, growth... and even a few sparks. What we need now is a shift in how dating technology is designed: tools that don’t just stoke desire but support courage, presence, and the messy, beautiful work of building something real.
“I Think Tomorrow” is a journey into the future of human experience, exploring how our shared reality might evolve in unforeseen directions. Through thought-provoking discussions and real stories from real people, we dive into the forces that will reshape how we live, love, and understand the world around us. What does tomorrow hold, and how will it transform what it means to be human? We'll try to connect the dots between tomorrow’s possibilities and today’s world. Join us as we explore the questions that will define our future—one story at a time.
