Designing Gracious AI with Lisanne Buik

In this episode, we sit down with futurist and visionary Lisanne Buik, founder of the Gracious AI philosophy. Lisanne shares her journey from tech entrepreneurship and burnout to receiving a transformative vision that reshaped her approach to technology. Together, we explore:What it means to design technology with grace rather than controlHow feminine and masculine energies can balance in leadership and innovationThe role of archetypes from nature—like fungi, water, and pollinators—in shaping our future storiesWhy agency, discipline, and embodied practices matter in our relationship with AIHow storytelling and somatic intelligence can help us navigate between dystopian and regenerative futuresThis conversation invites us to rethink not only how we use AI, but how we embody the values that guide it. Will we build technologies that deplete, or ones that regenerate? The choice is ours—and it begins now.🎵 Intro & Outro Music Used with permission from AWARË Track: Journey Live 5 Listen on SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/awaremusic/jurney-live-5 Explore more at: https://www.awaremusic.art
