Clearer Thinking is a podcast about ideas that truly matter. If you enjoy learning about powerful, practical concepts and frameworks, wish you had more deep, intellectual conversations in your life, or are looking for non-BS self-improvement, then we think you'll love this podcast! Each week we invite a brilliant guest to bring four important ideas to discuss for an in-depth conversation. Topics include psychology, society, behavior change, philosophy, science, artificial intelligence, math, economics, self-help, mental health, and technology. We focus on ideas that can be applied right now to make your life better or to help you better understand yourself and the world, aiming to teach you the best mental tools to enhance your learning, self-improvement efforts, and decision-making. • We take on important, thorny questions like: • What's the best way to help a friend or loved one going through a difficult time? How can we make our worldviews more accurate? How can we hone the accuracy of our thinking? What are the advantages of using our 'gut' to make decisions? And when should we expect careful, analytical reflection to be more effective? Why do societies sometimes collapse? And what can we do to reduce the chance that ours collapses? Why is the world today so much worse than it could be? And what can we do to make it better? What are the good and bad parts of tradition? And are there more meaningful and ethical ways of carrying out important rituals, such as honoring the dead? How can we move beyond zero-sum, adversarial negotiations and create more positive-sum interactions? more

Welcome to The Public Figure Society , the podcast exploring leadership, influence, and authenticity in the age of AI. We've all been promoted to public figures. AI has taken over 90% of our tasks, thrusting us into leadership whether we're ready or not. The gatekeepers are gone. We are now the architects of our lives and the changemakers of society. But with this promotion comes responsibility: How do we lead ourselves? How do we get discovered and build our presence? And when AI handles everything else, what do we do with what's left? How do we stay authentically human? This podcast explores these questions through conversations with leaders, innovators, and everyday people who are navigating this shift. We'll profile those doing it well, bring in experts to share their strategies, and uncover what it means to thrive as a public figure in this new age. Each episode focuses on: Leadership What does it mean to lead when AI is your taskmaster? How do we shift from following to leading ourselves? Influence How do you get discovered? How do you build your presence and share your gifts with the world? The strategies that worked for celebrities now work for everyone. Authenticity If AI takes over 90% of our tasks, what do we do with the remaining 10%? This is where we become fully human. What matters most to you? What do you want to create, explore, contribute? Join us as we explore the changing role of the public figure, master the art of influence, and discover how to stay human in the age of AI. Hosted on Acast.
