What if the most valuable data about you isn’t labs, steps, or purchases - but your own spoken story?

Bill Welser, CEO and cofounder of Lotic AI, explains how narrative disclosures can power practical, private, and personalized artificial intelligence. We dig into why “unknown unknowns” are hard to surface with prompt-only tools, how a relational AI can proactively ask better questions, and what it takes to keep sensitive data secure while still useful. We also explore real-world use cases, from health decisions and wearables to reducing wasted care and building a fairer “story economy.”

You’ll learn:

  • Why story is a richer signal than traditional data, and how to capture it safely
  • How proactive, goal-aligned prompts uncover insights you didn’t know to ask
  • Practical ways to combine narrative, CGM, and wearable trends for better decisions
  • The privacy model Bill favors, including what to avoid when sharing with LLMs
  • Risks of cognitive offloading and how to keep your own thinking strong
  • A bottom-up path to value where individuals control and benefit from their data
  • What a Jarvis-like companion could do for everyday choices over the next decade

Bill’s forthcoming book, “The Story Economy,” outlines how personal data stewardship can unlock new value without turning people into statistics.
