Where does yesterday's future, which is already here, really here, really here, meet today's future, which is about to happen, and tomorrow's future, which could be just minutes away?

Welcome to technology revolution, the future of now.

Where host Bonnie D. Graham asks savvy futurists for their predictions about the tech-driven

trends that are shaping our future right now.

Here's your host who will take us into the future of now, Bonnie D. Graham.

introduce my panel, I just want to read a little something about the way I titled

this show was, the future of art and AI is an AI picture worth a thousand words. And that's
