AI Transition Table: Make sense of the AI age, together - Chapter 2
AI is already changing how you work, love, and see yourself. So what do we do about it? Come find out together, from AI beginners to power users.
Light refreshments will be provided, including UPLIFT rose-infused functional beverages.
Chapter 2: What Do We Actually Need in the AI Age?
We're already living inside the AI transition. Join us to make sense of it together, and leave with a clearer sense of how to navigate it in your work, your relationships, and your life. Small tables, one open circle, one question: what do we actually need?
Make sense of the AI age, together.
AI is no longer simply a tool we use. It is reshaping how we work, think, create, communicate, build relationships, spend our time, and imagine our futures. Some changes are obvious; others are quietly becoming part of our daily lives before we fully recognize them.
Most of us are navigating this transition alone. The AI Transition Table creates a space to examine it together.
This participatory workshop brings people into small groups of three or four to go deep on a few anchor questions, then together into one open circle where the whole room thinks out loud. Together, we will:
Name — What do we actually need as AI reshapes our work, learning, relationships and inner lives?
Find — Where are people getting stuck, and what are they doing now instead?
Connect — Who could we navigate this with, and what support is missing?
Participants will begin by reflecting individually, using pencils because our answers—and the future itself—remain open to revision. Ideas will then be shared on sticky notes, discussed at each table, and brought together in the closing circle to reveal patterns across the room.
This is Chapter 2 of the AI Transition Table's three-part Founding Series. At Chapter 1, tables kept arriving at the same paradox: what we hope AI will give us is often the very thing we worry it could take, from how we learn to how we care for our minds. Chapter 2 picks up there and asks what we actually need. Missed Chapter 1? Each chapter stands on its own; newcomers are always welcome.

This is not a lecture, technical demonstration, or debate about whether AI is simply good or bad. No technical expertise is required—only curiosity, openness, and a willingness to think with others.
Who This Is For
Founders, creatives, professionals, community builders, AI practitioners, and curious people who want to understand this transition not only technologically, but personally and collectively.
What You'll Leave With
Meaningful connections with others navigating the same transition
Greater clarity about how AI is affecting your life and work
A broader perspective shaped by experiences outside your usual circle
A clearer understanding of emerging benefits, risks, and unmet needs
At least one opportunity, question, or practical next step worth exploring
The evening will open with a brief guided arrival and a Rose Vibes welcome pour, and conclude with time to connect and continue the conversation.
We do not need to predict the entire future in one evening. That's why this is a series. We only need to begin seeing it more clearly—together.
We'll be filming the opening and the closing circle for our community. A no-camera table will be available.
About the Founder and Host
AI is changing who we are faster than we're talking about it. That's why Nikolai Punchev founded the AI Transition Table.
A founder by trade, Nikolai built Rose Vibes, a pioneering Bulgarian rose–based calm-energy elixir carried by every Erewhon Market and other health-focused businesses across the United States. Through his work with Rosa damascena, one of the botanical world's most prized roses, he has developed wellness products and herbal tonic recipes for recognized brands, including Erewhon and Café Gratitude.
An active user and independent student of generative AI since ChatGPT's public launch, Nikolai has studied its human impact from every angle, listening to the people building the technology as well as historians, psychologists, business leaders, and spiritual teachers interpreting what it means for our behavior, relationships, identity, and sense of purpose. He created the AI Transition Table to bring these questions out of private reflection and into an honest, structured, and collective conversation.
