How an AI Builder and Strategist Uses Tech to Solve Big Business Problems

I’m joined by Lucas Lorenzo Peña, a systems thinker, Creative Technologist, and AI Builder. Lucas sits at the intersection of strategic design, innovation frameworks, and emerging AI tools. This conversation dives deep into how AI is shaping the way we think, not just the way we work.

We explore how tools can be extensions of our thought processes, how engineering mindsets can drive creative innovation, and why resilience in the age of AI is less about learning every tool and more about learning how to think across systems. If you’ve ever wondered how to bridge artistic vision with technical skill, or how to build future-ready infrastructure for the ideas in your head, this one’s for you.

🔥 Topics We Cover:

• How AI tools are helping Lucas prototype and refine complex ideas
• Lucas’s approach to creative problem solving through systems thinking
• The difference between art, design, and engineering in the AI era
• Why learning to “vibe code” isn’t enough, and how to build a real foundation
• His strategy of “backcasting” and imagining from the future backwards
• Why staying adaptable with tools matters more than mastering any one platform
