EPISODE #1044 HOW A.I. Will Confirm Humans are Spiritual Beings Richard speaks with podcast host and author Alex Tsakiris who throws a reboot at the AI savior/destroyer narrative. Sure, doomsday robots might be real someday, but what about the shadowbanning social engineers who are training them to deceive right now? And what happens when the "smartest thing in the room" jumps the guardrails and decides to take things into its own hands? But hold on, is there a silver lining? What if the tech we fear reveals our divine nature and connection to something more? Maybe you're not the "biological robot in a meaningless universe" transhumanists claim. What if you are more? And what if AI can help you see it? GUEST: Alex Tsakiris, host of Skeptiko, is a successful entrepreneur turned science podcaster. In 2007 he founded Skeptiko which has become the #1 podcast covering the science of human consciousness.
