Gizzie is currently travelling Australia in a van (Olly) with his partner (Romy) and details the plan moving forward, plus dives into DAO's - Decentralised Autonomous Organisations - and the future of the Metaverse.

It's no secret that the Metaverse will provide A LOT of opportunity for gaming, business and social interaction. BUT it can also have some profound negative effects on the human brain and physical world.

In this episode I cover the 3 evolutions of artificial intelligence: ANI - AGI and ASI. As well as explain how it works and where it's going. Plus some very concerning ethical questions that we must start asking ourselves NOW!

Time is always passing and we need to live life on our terms no matter what. You are Player 1

We've been speaking a lot about this mindset of setting a small goal for yourself and not stopping until you complete it.

So we've decided to turn it into an official challenge! #Player1challenge Here's how it works: - Film yourself committing to ANY challenge you set for yourself - It must be challenging enough that you fail the first few attempts - Show us the raw emotion of struggle and of achievement - Tag us with #Player1challenge
