Peggy kicks off a new show, Aiglatson, where the future isn’t just imagined, it is felt. She is joined by cohost Dennis Draeger, foresight director, Shaping Tomorrow, who says aiglatson is more than a word, it is a mindset, and it is about preferring the dreams of the future to the experiences of the past.
They also discuss:
· The definition and meaning of the word aiglatson—and who and why the term was coined.
· Comparing and contrasting nostalgia and aiglatson through a historical and future lens—and the concept of a used future.
· How the future is going to be engineered and how we are going to feel about it with the rise of AI (artificial intelligence).
If embedded super intelligence at the core of factory operations enabling custom software to be built in 24 hours instead of 18 months bridged the chasm that exists between management, vision, and operational reality, would you do it? Peggy talks with Dan Miklovic, founder, Lean Manufacturing Research and leader, Third Eye Advisory, and Radu Spineanu, founder, Humble Operations, about how American manufacturing is drowning in a costly disconnect.
They also discuss:
· How Humble Operations wants to help rewrite the rules of the enterprise software in manufacturing.
· What processes companies should tackle first and how to optimize the core, critical, essential function of business.
· If there are specific legacy systems to consider—and if adding new on top of old creates challenges.
