What if intelligence were as abundant, on-demand, and accessible as electricity? AI is making that possibility a reality, reshaping how we think, work, and create.

On Tuesday, January 20, at 7 p.m., global AI advisor and Santa Barbara native Zack Kass will take the stage at the Granada Theatre in downtown Santa Barbara. He will explore the key ideas from his new book, The Next RenAIssance, including how rapidly advancing AI is transforming work, education, creativity, and decision-making — and what these changes mean for individuals and communities navigating this shift.

Zack brings more than 16 years of experience in artificial intelligence, including his role at OpenAI during the launch of ChatGPT. Through conversation and interactive audience Q&A, he’ll challenge common assumptions about AI and invite attendees to reconsider how they lead, learn, and adapt in an era where intelligence is becoming widely available.
