Dear Friends,
“I wish I could slow it down, but I can’t.”
This is from the CEO of one of the leading AI companies on a zoom I had with him some time back. AI is developing so fast, even some of the leaders are concerned. AI may be ready for us, but are we ready for it?
In terms of the future of life on earth, especially human life, to me there are two pressing areas:
1) Climate Change
and
2) Artificial Intelligence.
In our effort to support the latter, I’m happy to announce that you can now register for Wisdom and AI Summit 2024, October 27th - 28th in SF.
There are numerous AI events, and to me many of them miss an essential element:
AI matters, but what matters more is human consciousness, and how we manage the coming AI.
(From Dalle via OpenAI)
If humans can heal their trauma, see through their narratives, and wake up to who we really are … we can do anything! And if we cannot, we are doomed. We will destroy one another with whatever we have, be it AI or a rock.
“The danger is that if we invest too much in developing AI and too little in developing human consciousness, the very sophisticated artificial intelligence of computer might only serve to empower the natural stupidity of humans.”
— Yuval Harari

History repeats itself, unfortunately!
I just wanted to write and let you know how much I love your post. How spiritual and deep it is and how much of what you write transforms me. Unfortunately, I had to go through several multi step authentications and multiple requests to sign up to post I've never heard of before. I almost decided to give up but glad I kept at it. Your material is really exceptional
