About this episode
Current Time.How would you describe The Liat Show? How would you explain that currently, people can only read the episodes of this show or listen to podcasters talking about the episodes, but watching or listening to it would only be available in the future? Would you be able to convince people that it is worth joining now to be part of the journey from its beginning, because they would be able to gain much more value from the early stage than joining at a later stage? Would you be able to make people imagine how it would look in a few months or years from now?If you could go back in time, how would you explain Facebook to yourself in 2001, knowing what it is today, but also aware of the knowledge level you had in 2001? What words would you choose to describe it? How would you explain a smartphone to yourself in 1995? Most of the world’s population back then did not understand why it was even necessary to carry a mobile analog phone, so do you think it would be easier for you to explain the need for a device you carry all the time with you that is both a phone and a computer?This is what the founders of companies that develop new products or services do. They need to explain what they do to the market and make the people who are interested in it imagine how what they develop would look in the end.Although I come from the tech sector, I am not developing technology, so you do not need to imagine complicated technological inventions. You all know what a radio show sounds like and what a TV show looks like. However, everything you are familiar with in traditional mediums works differently than the way things would work in the AI era. When I say this, I am not talking about avatars and computers replacing humans, as actors, musicians, and hosts are still valuable and will not be replaced easily. However, the processes behind all traditional mediums in the entertainment industry would be completely transformed into something we have never seen before.Until that day comes, and it is probably going to knock on your door sooner than you expect, I will tell you more about my show and why you should invite people to join, especially now. Why now? Because joining at the early stage will give them leverage over people joining later. They will learn the terminology faster than it would take at later stages. Readers will be able to make faster connections and associations when they are familiar with the early stories, and will be able to understand guidance to find answers.So, what is it? The Liat Show is my story, my journey through time. It is about digging into where I come from, my culture, my family, and my roots. That means diving into the history of places, people, and ideas. It is also about where we are right now and the present we all share. It is about imagining the future, the world we want to live in, and finding ways to create it.This journey is not easy. No
