What do “rest ethic,” goofing off, and Artificial Intelligence have in common?
This episode of the podcast is a bit different, but I think you’re going to enjoy it. In this interview, Kevin Kelly unwraps the art of living excellently in a world steered by technology.
Our discussion explores the intersections of AI, creativity, work, productivity, and even how rest plays a vital role in our lives.
In case you’re not familiar with him, Kevin is the co-founder of Wired Magazine, influential writer, renowned futurist, and author of the new book Excellent Advice For Living.
I wanted to get him on the podcast because this book is absolutely chock-full of practical, easily-digestible nuggets of advice for living a more fulfilling life. And as a man who has spent decades envisioning the future, he has a unique perspective compared to other guests I’ve had on the show.
This conversation covers a variety of topics such as . . .
- Kevin's motivation for writing Excellent Advice for Living
- The importance of balance between work and rest
- The role of AI in our lives and how it can reshape work
- Non-traditional views on success and fulfilling work
- And more . . .
Whether you're seeking to gain control over your time, foster your creativity, or ponder the exciting implications of AI, you don't want to miss this discussion.
