With Ideja Bajra

We’re living through the first moment in history where intelligence isn’t confined to the human mind. AI isn’t replacing how we think; it’s slipping into the thinking process itself!

In this talk, we’ll explore this new era of co-intelligence, where the real breakthroughs are coming from humans and machines working together. We’ll look at how tools have always reshaped how we think - writing, maps, calculators - and then focus on what actually makes AI different.

We’ll also get into the messy reality of how our brains work: the shortcuts we take, the stories we spin, the illusions of certainty we hang onto. Then we’ll explore how AI plays with those patterns, sometimes cranking up our biases, sometimes cutting through them.

Ultimately, attendees will leave seeing that the future was never a simple either/or. The next era is already here: humans plus AI.
