Maximally chuffed to be teaming up with this guy again on something brand new: deepfuture.now How might we help folks chart our very uncertain future, with time-tested foresight methodologies and AI?

This @unisontheunion statement about the Darlington Nurses tribunal ruling is just extraordinary. UNISON has a membership that is around 75% female, yet its response to a legal ruling about women being unlawfully required to share changing rooms with a male colleague leads not with women’s rights - but with trans rights. What exactly is being defended here? The right of trans people to fair treatment at work - which no one disputes? Or the right of males to access women’s changing rooms - even when women object and the tribunal has now ruled that forcing this is unlawful? A trade union’s first duty is to protect its members’ legal rights at work. Female members might reasonably ask: who is UNISON actually standing up for?

Happy to see the call of @patrickc and @tylercowen pick up momentum in the built design conversation, in particular with @UrbanCourtyard.

@denisehearn_ @longnow will be there, hope to say hi

Hey San Francisco, come hang out on Monday! @longnow eventbrite.com/e/happy-hour-o…

Latest Treasury session, this time with @brittanheller, Yale/Stanford scholar and lawyer specializing in digital spatial tech, and Max Sills, General Counsel at Midjourney - both also Treasury advisors. The IP piece of premium spatial asset and spatial data licensing is huge: and currently unresolved. Treasury's opportunity is to contribute to best practice and tooling here, and to make sure that the next platform revolution spatial technology - actually protects creators and what is owned, and works for all, including social development, creativity, urban infrastructure, climate and more. Everyone welcome!

Urbanist Ventures portfolio company event tomorrow evening in SF! Treasury is building Getty Images for premium spatial assets. Founded by visionary urbanist @jmanooch. “As spatial technology reshapes our digital landscape, we face a critical juncture in how we handle intellectual property. Rather than repeat the mistakes of previous technological revolutions, we have an opportunity to establish thoughtful frameworks that protect creators while fostering innovation.”

Treasury Sessions are back, and we're diving straight into one of the most crucial conversations in spatial computing: the intersection of IP rights and creative innovation. This session marks the first of two deep dives into this critical subject. As spatial technology reshapes our digital landscape, we face a critical juncture in how we handle intellectual property. Rather than repeat the mistakes of previous technological revolutions, we have an opportunity to establish thoughtful frameworks that protect creators while fostering innovation. Join us for an essential discussion led by three distinguished experts: Brittan Heller (Stanford Law School) - pioneer in XR/spatial computing rights Max Sills (General Counsel, Midjourney) - at the forefront of AI-generated content John Manoochehri (CEO, Treasury) - bridging computational design and spatial technology This session explores how we can leverage AI to enhance spatial creativity while protecting professional creators, examine ownership in AI-generated content, and discuss platform responsibilities in the spatial age. While this session won't be livestreamed, video will be available afterward on our YouTube channel. Don't miss this opportunity to engage with leading minds shaping the future of spatial technology and IP law. Register here: treasury.space/sessions/tamin…
