What if, in the future, everything breaks humanity's way? Possible is an award-winning, weekly podcast that sketches out the brightest version of the future—and what it will take to get there. Hosts Reid Hoffman and Aria Finger explore what’s possible with forward-thinking leaders, deep thinkers, and ambitious builders across many fields, such as technology, art, education and healthcare. These conversations center on the ways technology—and, in particular, AI—is shaping the future. In episodes, AI tools such as OpenAI’s GPT-4 and Inflection’s Pi are at work, offering informational asides, prompting guests, or demoing what they can do. Lastly, between guest episodes, Aria interviews her co-host Reid on his latest takes on what’s possible if we use technology—and our collective effort—effectively.Reid Hoffman 2023

  • Satya Nadella on making human and token capital compound

    Satya Nadella on making human and token capital compound
    Jun 5 2026
    Reid sits down with Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella fresh off Microsoft Build 2026. The conversation goes wide: how AI is reshaping work, business, and society—and why the transformation sweeping through software development today is only a preview of what's coming for all knowledge work. Satya makes the case that human capital and "token capital" are now deeply intertwined, that companies—not just countries—must build their own AI capabilities, and that the organizations best positioned to thrive are those that can leverage their unique expertise inside intelligent systems. Reid and Satya also explore Microsoft's enterprise AI vision, Reid's work with Manas on AI-powered scientific discovery, lessons from past technological revolutions, and why demonstrating real, tangible benefits may be the most important thing the industry can do to earn—and keep—the public's trust.

  • What it takes to trust AI | Kanjun Qiu

    What it takes to trust AI | Kanjun Qiu
    Jun 3 2026
    Before Kanjun Qiu raised $200 million from NVIDIA and others to build reliable AI agents, she was writing high-frequency trading algorithms to pay her way through MIT. Today she leads Imbue, an AI lab unusually focused on power, agency, and what it would take to make AI systems trustworthy by design. In this episode, Reid Hoffman and Aria Finger sit down with Kanjun to explore what it means to truly own your AI tools, not just use them; how to build agents that are systemically trustworthy, not just convincingly so; and why the future of AI may depend as much on moral invention as technical innovation. From meditation and the amygdala to Adam Smith and open-source software, this is a conversation about the deeper architecture of the AI future.

    AI’s hidden 20-year monopoly
    May 27 2026
    Reid and Aria dig into where AI is creating real, durable value—and where they see it heading to next. Reid shares an inside look at his AI-driven drug discovery work at Manas AI, making the case that medicine could be one of the biggest opportunities in the entire AI landscape. They also explore why AI will likely shift toward a mix of specialized agents and “front doors” rather than a single dominant assistant, how enterprise vs. consumer AI revenue will evolve, and what companies like Anthropic signal about where the real business of AI is taking shape. They also touch on the role of governments in delivering AI-powered public goods, before closing with a candid conversation on political corruption, institutional trust, and why civic courage still matters.
