In this episode, we explore how generative AI is reshaping education and professional development—from rote memorization to agile, question-driven learning. Are we still training people like mainframes in a thin-client world? Join us as we unpack this shift with real-world examples from classrooms, boardrooms, and beyond. Discover why curiosity is becoming the most valuable skill of the AI age, how synthesis trumps recall, and what it really means to be a "curiosity coach." If you lead teams, build learning programs, or just want to future-proof your mind, this conversation is for you.

Bit & Being - From Mainframe Intelligence to Thin Client Thinking

Lyrics:

Sick of the timelines
Sick of the headlines
Now we're in charge of the news
Sick of the fine lines 
We crossed for five fives
Sick of the new style fools
Heard all the news
Are they crumbling?
Imma keep it quiet
Keep them wondering
Figured the lifelines
Failed to find fives
Higher than the man on the moon

I'm a new psycho
Passion on cycle
Cycle through 69 butterfly camos
Hidden in plain sight
Quarter to midnight
Fade out the fakes
'Cause I'm feeling myself now

Peace be with you
Bible Street symphonies
God forgives you
Imma need a couple million stacked no issue
Piece of "peace be with you"
We're so pleased to meet you

Sick of the timelines
Sick of the headlines
Now we're in charge of the news
Sick of the fine lines 
We crossed for five fives
Sick of the new style fools
Heard all the news
Are they crumbling?
Imma keep it quiet
Keep them wondering
Figured the lifelines
Failed to find fives
Higher than the man on the moon

Flying through the skies like the dark knight
I ain't killing time for the sunrise
Stacking up sats for a new life
Kept me in the dark through the sightlines of my mind

Never put me on the same list as the fakes
The famous, the narcissists, the pessimists.
I paid my debts, just let me rest
I don't do revenge, I'm so sick of it

Sick of the timelines
Sick of the headlines
Now we're in charge of the news
Sick of the fine lines 
We crossed for five fives
Sick of the new style fools
Heard all the news
Are they crumbling?
Imma keep it quiet
Keep them wondering
Figured the lifelines
Failed to find fives
Higher than the man on the moon

Alter ego, fuck my ego
Been dead since 2-0-2-3 though
False prophets
Propaganda profits
Machine learning tops it
Fuck the violence
Fuck the comments
They got new lessons in karmics
Kingdom of God in the valley
Hidden behind clear view mountains

Timelines

Lapin fait connaissance avec le monde de l'entreprise et se coince les doigts dans un store.

La Chute de Lapinville
Lapin, pervers narcissique en fin de droits, raconte son retour à Lapinville et sa décision de faire un podcast pour se venger de ses anciens camarades d’école. Il est bientôt rejoint par Chloé Bloomington, star de cinéma qu’une énorme shitstorm oblige à revenir dans sa ville natale pour jouer dans une fiction quotidienne à la con. Puis, on suit l’enquête de Spiruline, astucieuse stagiaire à la mairie, qui dévoilera des scandales insoupçonnés dans les plus hautes sphères de Lapinville… Tour à tour, les Lapinvillois témoignent pour essayer de comprendre comment, une chose en entraînant une autre, ils ont fini par provoquer la destruction de la Terre. Leurs destins entremêlés forment une pelote visible de l’espace dont cette série, cinq minutes par jour, va dérouler le fil. Fresque épique et palpitante, chronique de la catastrophe en cours et de ses ramifications les plus inattendues, La Chute de Lapinville a pu être décrite comme une variante des Simpson à la sauce rond-point ou un jumeau maléfique de Plus belle la vie.

In this podcast, he talks with journalist Rhoda Metcalfe about his research into the origins of globalization.
