CAMERON WIESE: Welcome to the Build The Future podcast. I'm your host, Cameron Wiese. As we kick off this project, I want to share with you why we're launching it and what you can expect. It all comes down to a single, single phrase. A sense of wonder. Sense of wonder. What is that? It's the feeling of awe triggered by an expansion of one's awareness of what is possible. The feeling you get reading about the Oasis in Ready Player One, watching Cosmos, the Apollo launches, or hearing about another one of Elon's phenomenal projects. It's a glimpse into the future that stirs something deep, deep inside of you. A story that not only compels you to think and to dream about our future, but to take action. It's this sense of wonder we want to share as far and as wide as we can. We'll explore frontier technologies, innovative research, and ambitious projects from around the world that will shape our future. We'll hear from entrepreneurs, thought leaders, researchers, and anyone else actively working to build the world we want to live in. Our hope is that we can inspire you to go
CAMERON WIESE: build, to challenge the status quo, to realize that you too can affect the change you want to see in the world, no matter who you are or where you're from. So we invite you to join us on this journey as we explore and discuss the possibilities of tomorrow. Now let's go build something incredible together.
