  While AI Gets Smarter - This Is Your Only Advantage | Prof. Tim Gilman-Szefczyk on Art Thinking, Improbable Ideas & Human Creativity | Founders Across Borders

  Jul 27, 202658 min

  Professor Tim Gilman-Szefczyk has spent over two decades at the intersection of art, philosophy and business, building miniature worlds in Times Square, growing a multimillion-dollar climate nonprofit in Brooklyn, and teaching social impact at NYU Stern. Now he's part of the Improbable Art Thinking movement - a framework that gives anyone, artist or not, the tools to think in ways AI fundamentally cannot. In this episode he breaks down why AI will always choose the most probable answer - and why your greatest competitive advantage is your ability to think improbably. He also shares the Scenius concept, the 3-day art thinking workshop that transforms how teams work, the Zipper Test for communication, and why "everyone is an artist" is not just a philosophy - it's a practice. One of the most mind-expanding conversations we've had on Founders Across Borders. Clear your head before you press play.
