The AI honeymoon is over, but its impact has barely begun. What happens when we no longer interact with AI on discrete tasks, but it’s pervasive in our work? We’ll reach that reality faster than we did with the digital revolution. We’ll explore the ability and practices of AI-enabled individuals and teams to provide exponential value; This is the era of the billion-dollar team. We’ll show examples of how new team structures, workflows, and cultures are built, including several experiments within our own organization using AI to enhance employee productivity 10x and more on specific tasks.

The technology that brough us Deepfakes is permanently reshaping the way we create content of all kinds from movies and music to apps and websites. We explore how synthetic media and computational design are inspiring all sorts of machine-assisted creativity and how it’s changing the creative process. 

What happens when society experiences tectonic shifts that shatter established norms? When the outputs of fields from art and music to law and science are commoditized? The coming wave of creative destruction will coincide with a creative revolution. This transformation will benefit society, but our assumptions of what it takes to succeed and to create value will be challenged. Many things we hold to be true, or obvious will cease to function as truth.
