as posted by the channel

James Pethokoukis, AEI Senior Fellow and author of The Conservative Futurist: How to Create the Sci-Fi World We Were Promised, joins The Realignment. Marshall and James discuss his why he describes post-1970s America as suffering from the "Great Downshift," a sharp decline in technological progress, economic stagnation, and downsized dreams, why we should be optimistic about the future, despite fears of a looming technopocalypse, the role of developments in AI, space exploration, and energy abundance, the agenda for recovering the expansively futuristic spirit of the 1950s and 1960s, and why conservative futurism isn't an oxymoron.
