Summary

There's the AI future everyone expects. And then there's “Otherwise.”

"Otherwise" is a different kind of AI show. It’s about AI that makes the world a little better, and the people who built it that way. Fast Forward’s Kevin Barenblat and Nicole Davenport, who have spent the last decade helping nonprofits build mission-driven tech, sit down with some of their favorite people in the space to explore the choices behind AI’s future.

Our guests are people who ask not just what AI can do, but what it should do. They look at problems everyone else has accepted as inevitable, and decide the world can exist otherwise. We explore the experiences and convictions that make people question the default, and leave listeners wondering what they might build differently, too.
