Hi Carl,
I don't what you mean about the future tense as these are two people debating whether they like Star Wars or Star Trek best.
The actual sentence with 'saurais' is -
Je ne saurais pas par où commencer = I wouldn't know where to start
and the conditional is correct.
Bonne Continuation!
Merci beaucoup à tous les deux !
Thanks to you, the lesson link has now been updated :)
Bonne journée !

Carl is saying that the grammar lesson that has been linked to this sentence is about how to conjugate savoir in the future, not the conditional.
