Afterthoughts: How tech is rewiring our expectations
New technologies aren’t just creating cool products, they’re changing what we expect from everything else.
AI is reshaping the information we see and how we discover what to buy. Health tracking is moving from smartwatches to full-body scans. Smart glasses are changing what privacy means in public.
Through a series of short, three-minute stand-ups followed by open discussion, we’re bringing people together to share the shifts they’re noticing and explore what they might mean for us all next.
