Designing AI to Connect Us to Higher Consciousness

Modern Mantra Podcast

Nov 16 2022 • 39 mins

Technology today is bombarding us with noise and blocking us from getting back to our highest selves—the true us: that wise, calm, loving being connected to all that is. But are the two really diametrically opposed?

Join us for a packed 40 minutes as Nick & Elijah challenge the notion that human intelligence and artificial intelligence are fundamentally different, presenting ideas that will blow open your mind and make you question everything you thought you knew about technology and nature: If humans beings are programmed and conscious, then why not a computer? Is technology really created at all or is it all just nature?

The two then circle back around the idea that AI—rather than being the supreme antagonist—can act as a conduit to allow more humans than ever before to tap into their highest consciousness.

In this episode we discuss:

  • 01:09 - The age of information and the loss of intuition
  • 06:35 - Walking past digital waterfalls to get to the lake of calm
  • 07:26 - If human beings are programmed and conscious, then why not a computer?
  • 11:21 - AI is built from natural materials so is it really “artificial” intelligence?
  • 12:57 - Let’s build a computer out of meat
  • 14:47 - A virtuous cycle - advances in AI enhance our knowledge of materials sciences which advances AI
  • 20:48 - AI as a teacher for understanding the human psyche and our own biases
  • 21:38 - Human biases in AI - is Stable Diffusion racist?
  • 24:49 - AI that offers lower salaries based on candidate phone number only reinforces social barriers
  • 27:41 - Should AI algorithms be kept in a black box or made open?
  • 29:45 - Can AI be a conduit to allow more people to tap into higher consciousness?
  • 34:17 - Product idea: feeding AI data from energy channelers so anyone can access higher consciousness at the tap of a button
