Description

Lake Fellowship warmly welcomes guest speaker Richard Thieme.

About the program: Let’s address the real revolutionary impacts of AI on identity, organizations, geopolitical structures, and thinking itself. What does this transformational technology do to people? How does it inflect them, define them, alter them? The technical details of how matter but how they come home to our humanity matters more. The "Third Mind" is an emergent cognitive domain that results from that collaboration and is neither the AI’s nor ours, but something different. Agentic AI changes that difference even more. We had better understand who we are becoming before acting out of old paradigms. “Now that you have built the machine, who are you going to be inside it?”
