A Panel Discussion on Connection, Creativity, and the Future of Intelligence
In a world increasingly shaped by artificial intelligence, who gets to speak, create, and lead? Join us for a dynamic conversation exploring how AI is transforming our understanding of expertise, creativity, and human connection.
This panel brings together four visionary entrepreneurs:
Anjum Alden – Founder of Anara Consulting, a web development firm empowering digital presence.
Vassi Slavova – Founder of BlackboxVisual Animation, a studio redefining storytelling through motion.
Bradley Steckart – Founder of Sit By Me, a platform fostering inclusive tech education and mentorship.
Sheila Long – Founder of MalamaDoe, a coworking community supporting women entrepreneurs.
Together, they’ll explore how AI challenges traditional notions of authority, amplifies diverse voices, and reshapes the emotional landscape of work and creativity. Drawing inspiration from books like Range: Why Generalists Triumph in a Specialized World and The Death of Expertise, this discussion will dive into the tension between specialization and adaptability, and the role of loneliness in a hyperconnected age.
