Becoming Future Fluent with AI, the Future of Work & Productivity
Enabling the Future Fluent in the Age of Intelligent Technology
Welcome to a new chapter in our journey together!
This one is going to be a doozy, a lot has happened since my last newsletter!
I'm excited to share with you a shift in focus that I believe will resonate deeply with the challenges and opportunities we face in our rapidly evolving world.
The Future Fluent Framework
Moving forward, my newsletter will explore four interconnected themes that I call the Future Fluent Framework:
Productivity: Achieving more with less effort
Software: Solving tomorrow's problems with today's code
AI: Amplifying human potential through artificial intelligence
Future of Work: Navigating and shaping the workplace of tomorrow
These pillars aren't just isolated topics – they're the building blocks of a new paradigm in work and technology. We'll dive into each area individually and explore their fascinating intersections.
You can read about the Future Fluent Framework in greater detail on my blog.

Here's to amplifying our collective brilliance!
What I’m Up To
Became Co-founder of Plumb
I’ve been very quiet on my newsletter the past few months, because I’ve been heads down building and casting vision for Plumb!
In April, my team decided to make me a co-founder of Plumb, a magical AI workflow tool that I’d built internally that became the product we’re building!
If you’re interested in automating the things you do day-to-day by simply typing a workflow into existence, check out Plumb.
If you’re curious about our vision for Plumb, you can read about how I've been writing about it.
Travel
The past few months, I’ve traveled to San Francisco for the AI Engineer World Fair, went to Montréal, Canada for the Plumb team to gather and went on a family vacation to Breckenridge, CO to spend some time with family.
Montréal
Montréal was a beautiful city. It had an old-world feel and it was so great to be together with my teammates and to talk about the future of Plumb and the aspirations we each have for building a tool that is accessible to everyone to create magic.
We stayed in the most ridiculously rad AirBnB with a cathedral ceiling, saw a cirque show and ate delicious food.
Breckenridge, CO
My wife’s aunt invited us to stay in Breckenridge with her for a short trip. It was beautiful to be in the mountains.
On our trip, we…
Toured Country Boy Mines
Panned for gold
Saw Isaak Heartstone (the troll in the woods)
Painted pottery
I went ice skating for the first time
That’s a Wrap!
As you finish reading this, I hope you're as excited as I am about the journey we're embarking on together.
The intersection of AI, the future of work, and productivity is a fascinating space, and I can't wait to explore it further with you.
Share the Magic
If you found value in this newsletter, I'd be thrilled if you shared it with friends, colleagues, or anyone you think might be interested in navigating this new landscape.
Together, we can build a community of forward-thinkers ready to shape the future of work.
Let's Connect
I'm curious to hear about your experiences with AI and how it's impacting your work life. So, here's a question for you:
What's one task in your daily work routine that you think AI could help automate or improve? How do you envision AI transforming this task?
Feel free to send me your thoughts here, on Twitter, Threads or drop me an email. Your insights could spark interesting discussions in future newsletters!
Until next time, stay curious!
