The Long Now Foundation welcomes

Kim Carson


Attend the in-person or via our

Doors at 6:00pm, talk starts at 7:00pm

Kim Carson will explore the profound question of how to rediscover and define human purpose in the age of AI. With influences ranging from Brene Brown’s courage-centered leadership to Paulo Coelho’s exploration of personal destiny, Kim’s work weaves together practical strategies and philosophical insights, guiding audiences in understanding how AI can serve as a partner in awakening creativity, navigating uncertainty, and fostering a deeper connection with others and ourselves.

Her perspective also embraces the Dalai Lama’s call for compassion and balance, advocating for AI systems that enhance collective well-being while honoring the uniqueness of the individual. Carson invites audiences to experience AI not as a threat to human identity but as a catalyst for discovery and growth, empowering us to become co-creators of a future where technology supports our highest aspirations.
