About Brett Hurt

CEO + Founder at Love Conquers Fear

Brett Hurt is a serial entrepreneur, co-founder and former CEO of data.world—a data collaboration platform recently acquired by ServiceNow—and founder of Love Conquers Fear, a holding company driving his podcast, book, and investments toward an 'Age of Abundance for All' enabled by AI and emerging tech. His thinking fuses love-vs-fear philosophy, AI consciousness, quantum computing, spirituality, and psychedelics with practical serial entrepreneurship and data platforms to unite humanity against existential risks. He envisions technology serving love, healing, and universal prosperity in an era of exponential innovation.

Serial Entrepreneurship and Data Platforms

Brett Hurt is a serial entrepreneur who has founded and scaled multiple companies, including data.world, a Public Benefit Corporation he co-founded as CEO to enable modern data teamwork with AI tools like 'Archie'.[27][28][32] He previously took his fifth startup public, transitioning to investing while reflecting on big life changes.[25] data.world achieved revenue success through strategic investments and innovation, culminating in its acquisition by ServiceNow.[36][39] Earlier writings include 'The Entrepreneur's Essentials,' iterated with AI via his son Levi's Brett Hurt GPT.[30] Hurt emphasizes bootstrapping vs. venture capital, with optimism for AI enabling founders to achieve more with less.[17]

Love Conquers Fear Philosophy

Central to Hurt's worldview is 'Love Conquers Fear,' a philosophy underpinning his holding company, podcast, forthcoming book, and investments aimed at guiding humanity through AI-driven challenges.[9][10][12][13] He promotes choosing love over fear, rooted in spirituality, consciousness, and healing—contrasting the 'World of Form' (material comparison) with soul-level reality.[16] This frames technology as a tool for unity and light, with calls to action for leaders to manifest abundance.[12][14]

Age of Abundance and AI Optimism

Hurt envisions an 'Age of Abundance for All' within 10-15 years, driven by AI, robotics, quantum computing, and brain-computer interfaces replacing human labor and solving global issues like disease, energy, and agriculture.[11][17][18][21] He predicts AI browsers will dominate search,[7] highlights market leaders like NVIDIA and Microsoft,[8] and sees AI commoditizing SaaS while boosting deep tech and humanoid robots as the biggest market.[17] Programming since 1979, he marvels at AI superpowers post-ChatGPT.[21]

Consciousness, Spirituality, and Psychedelics

Hurt explores consciousness, quantum physics, and spirituality, blending science and non-dogmatic faith in works like 'God's Final Exam' and novella 'The Lattice,' where physicist Dr. Alexander Bliss unites humanity via a 'Lattice'.[9][11][29] Podcast episodes cover psychedelics for healing trauma,[12][18] ancestral diets reversing disease,[14] and reality as love-based (Dao, G-d, consciousness).[16][19] He recommends authors like Mark Gober and Brian Muraresku on these topics.[19][20]

Podcast: Love Conquers Fear

Launched in 2024, the @LCFpodcast (now 53+ episodes) features Hurt's vision, guests like Jason Karp (Hu Chocolate), Joshua Baer (Capital Factory), Whurley (quantum/AI), and others on AI, abundance, spirituality, and leadership.[10][12][14][17][18][20][22][24] It addresses 'Will humanity make it?' amid exponential tech, promoting love, purpose, and action.[12]

Quantum Computing and Emerging Tech

Hurt highlights quantum computing's paradigm shift, paired with AI to tackle humanity's challenges, as discussed with expert Whurley.[18] He ties it to consciousness and abundance in 'The Lattice'.[11]

Personal Life and Reflections

Hurt shares family insights via Lucky7 blog, including New Year's letters (2024-2026) on trips and resolutions like diversity in tech.[6][26][31] Mentions wife Brenda[5] and son Levi.[30] Austin-based, he praises local innovators like Joshua Baer.[15][17]
