Are futurists born or made?

What's the real difference between a smart tool and an intelligent robot? In this special episode, AI futurist and author Steve Brown joins James and Keith to talk about the future of work, real estate, and humanity in an AI-powered world.

They cover:

• Why agents won't be replaced—but do need to evolve

• The 4 waves of AI (generative, agentic, spatial, physical)

• The real threat (and opportunity) of humanoid robots

• How "AI alignment" is the single biggest challenge of our time

• Why the best agents in the future will be designers and orchestrators—not just doers

If you've felt overwhelmed by the pace of change, this episode is both a wake-up call and a roadmap. The AI shift is happening now. The leaders who thrive will be the ones who learn to lead it.
