Enjoy this radically transparent conversation with Jennifer Dorian, CEO of WABE, a “76 year old startup.” Hosted by Lisa Calhoun, managing partner at Valor Ventures, these leaders drive into topics of truth and courage today, including:

• How public broadcasting shapes culture, community, and innovation, particularly in Atlanta
• How storytelling, and the perception of truth, is changing
• Research that reveals new deceptive tendencies in the most advanced AI
• Leadership lessons as CEOs, including knowing when “be a killer”
• Achieving more by doing less

Jennifer brings a national media lens to Atlanta’s evolving reality—sharing insights on her own high impact leadership, local business pressures, and, most importantly–why now is a defining moment for all of us in how we seek and experience truth.

What if the key to unlocking true autonomy isn’t just more real-world testing—but a perfect digital twin of reality?

Meet Autonoma, the company revolutionizing AI and autonomy through ultra-high-fidelity simulation. From self-driving cars to smart cities, their tech is accelerating the future—faster than real time.

🔹 Why simulation? Because 11 billion miles of real-world driving is impossible—unless you can simulate it.
🔹 Beyond cars: Airports, warehouses, even entire digital cities are using Autonoma to test, predict, and optimize autonomy.
🔹 The future is now: Imagine redesigning roads before they’re built, or stress-testing a city for the World Cup—all in a virtual sandbox.

"The line between simulation and reality is vanishing." – Will Bryan, CEO of Autonoma
