The Bahala Podcast, episode 2 - AI Community Dialogue

Welcome to Episode 2 of the Bahala Podcast. This episode captures our first Monday Night meetup, held on February 2nd, 2026, where I lead a dialogue about artificial intelligence with our community.

I presented what the current state of AI is, how it works, and what it means for our lives. We covered large language models, reasoning systems, and AI agents. More importantly, we used a framework called "Could, Should, Might, Don't" to think through AI's potential futures together.

Our community brought incredible questions and perspectives—from education and creativity to privacy and control. You'll hear concerns about critical thinking, excitement about medical breakthroughs, and honest discussion about what we want to preserve as technology advances.

This conversation is part of our ongoing work to build shared community values around AI. Thanks for listening.
