Bunmi Otegbade helps people see the narratives they're living in, and more importantly, discover they have the power to change them. We discuss how AI might force us into collaborative competition, why doubt is healthy, and how a foreigner can walk into rural America and get people to question what they think they know. From his work with Impact Brain—a framework that uses AI to help social impact programs understand whose version of "success" actually matters by capturing real-time narratives from all stakeholders—to his vision of anthropologists leading technology development, Bunmi reminds us that the stories we tell about the future literally create the future. This is a conversation about narrative power, the braided duality of progress, and why sometimes the most mind-changing thing you can do for others is simply ask: "How do you know this?"
