 A Manifesto for the Species Becoming Something Else EntirelyAre we still human — or becoming something else entirely?In this poetic and thought-provoking manifesto, Roy Sharples explores the evolution of humanity in the digital age. From the first blinking cursor to AI that now thinks in pixels, Humanity 2.0 charts the journey of a species that didn't stroll into the future — it crash-landed into it.How is artificial intelligence shaping not just our tools, but our identity?What remains uniquely human in a world of automation and algorithms?Can we reclaim creativity, conscience, and soul in the age of acceleration?From emojis to ethics, from labor to longing, Roy invites us to pause, reflect, and write a new chapter — one that doesn't abandon awe for convenience, but dares to be messily, beautifully human.Support the showAttitude. Imagination. Execution. Create Without Frontiers.

In this week's conversation between Dr. James Emery White and co-host Alexis Drye, they discuss how just a few weeks ago YouTube celebrated its 20th anniversary. Few could have imagined that a 19-second video of a man looking at elephants at the San Diego Zoo could have led to the creation of a global media powerhouse. With 20 billion videos having been uploaded to date, we thought it was fitting to discuss the countless ways that YouTube has revolutionized media and our culture. Episode Links In today's episode, Dr. White shared a ton of facts and figures on YouTube related to its history, its growth and where it's headed in the future. Here are a collection of articles and blogs that we'd encourage you to take a look at if you're interested in learning more or finding any stats that were shared today: Wendy Lee, “YouTube turns 20 years old. How it changed TV as we know it,” Los Angeles Times. Todd Spangler, “YouTube Says It Now Hosts More Than 20 Billion Videos, Unveils New Features and Easter Eggs in 20th Birthday Celebration,” Variety. Dade Hayes, “YouTube's Revenue Will Top Disney's This Year As It Becomes “The Home For All Things Video”, Analyst Says,” Deadline. James Hardy, “Who Invented YouTube: The Visionaries Behind the Digital Revolution,” History Cooperative. Viraj Mahesh, “20 ways we're celebrating two decades of YouTube,” YouTube Official Blog. “YouTube” 1440. If you're interested in checking out YouTube's first video ever posted, you can click HERE to watch “Me at the Zoo.” And you can click HERE to check out the most-viewed videos of all time on YouTube. And then Dr. White mentioned a recent news article discussing just how much people increasingly trust their peers and the type of content that they release on social media today. You can read “Gen Z increasingly listens to peers over doctors for health advice” found in Axios HERE. Finally, Dr. White turned the conversation to the takeaways for the church, and how we need to meet people where they are at in order to share the message of Jesus with them. He wrote about this in depth in his book, Hybrid Church, which you can order from Amazon HERE. The primary way to meet people where they are in today's culture is through YouTube. If you are interested, here are some of the channels tied to Mecklenburg Community Church that he mentioned in the conversation today, including the link to the Church & Culture Podcast on YouTube if you're interested in checking us out there: Mecklenburg Community Church | @MeckChurch MecKidz Children's Ministry | @MecKidzChurch REALIFE High School Ministry | @REALIFEHSM MAXlife Middle School Ministry | @maxlifemsm7079 Meck Creative | @MeckCreative Church & Culture | @churchandculture For those of you who are new to Church & Culture, we'd love to invite you to subscribe (for free of course) to the twice-weekly Church & Culture blog and check out the Daily Headline News - a collection of headlines from around the globe each weekday.

AI Arms Race from ChatGPT to Deepseek - AZ TRT S06 EP08 (269) 4-20-2025              What We Learned This Week AI Arms Race is real with the major tech co's involved ChatGPT by OpenAI is considering the top chat AI program Google has Gemini (was Bard), Microsoft has CoPilot, Amazon has Claude / Alexa Deepseek is a startup from China that has disrupted AI landscape with a more cost effective AI model Costs and investment $ dollars into AI is being rethought as Deepseek spent millions $ vs Silicon Valley spending billions $   Notes: Seg 1:   Major Tech Giants AI Programs - Gemini (was Bard) Developed by Google, Gemini is known for its multimodal capabilities and integration with Google Search. It can analyze images, understand verbal prompts, and engage in verbal conversations.  ChatGPT Developed by OpenAI, ChatGPT is known for its versatility and platform-agnostic solution for text generation and learning. It can write code in almost any language, and can also be used to provide research assistance, generate writing prompts, and answer questions.  Microsoft Copilot Developed by Microsoft, Copilot is known for its integration with applications like Word, Excel, and Power BI. It's particularly well-suited for document automation.    Amazon Alexa w/ Claude - Improved AI Model: Claude is a powerful AI model from Anthropic, known for its strengths in natural language processing and conversational AI, as noted in the video and other sources.        Industry 3.0 (1969-2010): The Third Industrial Revolution, or the Digital Revolution, was marked by the automation of production through the use of computers, information technology, and the internet. This era saw the widespread adoption of digital technologies, including programmable logic controllers and robots.  Industry 4.0 (2010-present): The Fourth Industrial Revolution, also known as the Fourth Industrial Revolution, is characterized by the integration of digital technologies, including the Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI), big data, and cyber-physical systems, into manufacturing and industrial processes. This era is focused on creating "smart factories" and "smart products" that can communicate and interact with each other, leading to increased efficiency, customization, and sustainability.    Top AI programs include a range of software, platforms, and resources for learning and working with artificial intelligence. Some of the most popular AI software tools include Viso Suite, ChatGPT, Jupyter Notebooks, and Google Cloud AI Platform, while popular AI platforms include TensorFlow and PyTorch. Educational resources like Coursera's AI Professional Certificate and Fast.ai's practical deep learning course also offer valuable learning opportunities.    ChatGPT is a generative artificial intelligence chatbot developed by OpenAI and launched in 2022. It is based on large language models (LLMs) such as GPT-4o. ChatGPT can generate human-like conversational responses and enables users to refine and steer a conversation towards a desired length, format, style, level of detail, and language.[2] It is credited with accelerating the AI boom, which has led to ongoing rapid investment in and public attention to the field of artificial intelligence (AI).[3] Some observers have raised concern about the potential of ChatGPT and similar programs to displace human intelligence, enable plagiarism, or fuel misinformation.[4][5] OpenAI was founded in December 2015 by Sam Altman, Greg Brockman, Elon Musk, Ilya Sutskever, Wojciech Zaremba, and John Schulman. The founding team combined their diverse expertise in technology entrepreneurship, machine learning, and software engineering to create an organization focused on advancing artificial intelligence in a way that benefits humanity. Elon Musk is no longer involved in OpenAI, and Sam Altman is the current CEO of the organization. ChatGPT has had a profound influence on the evolution of AI, paving the way for advancements in natural language understanding and generation. It has demonstrated the effectiveness of transformer-based models for language tasks, which has encouraged other AI researchers to adopt and refine this architecture. The model's success has also stimulated interest in LLMs, leading to a wave of research and development in this area.   Seg 2: DeepSeek is a private Chinese company founded in July 2023 by Liang Wenfeng, a graduate of Zhejiang University, one of China's top universities, who funded the startup via his hedge fund, according to the MIT Technology Review. Liang has about $8 billion in assets, Ives wrote in a Jan. 27 research note. Chinese startup DeepSeek's launch of its latest AI models, which it says are on a par or better than industry-leading models in the United States at a fraction of the cost, is threatening to upset the technology world order. The company has attracted attention in global AI circles after writing in a paper last month that the training of DeepSeek-V3 required less than $6 million worth of computing power from Nvidia H800 chips. DeepSeek's AI Assistant, powered by DeepSeek-V3, has overtaken rival ChatGPT to become the top-rated free application available on Apple's App Store in the United States. This has raised doubts about the reasoning behind some U.S. tech companies' decision to pledge billions of dollars in AI investment and shares of several big tech players, including Nvidia, have been hit.   NVIDIA Blackwell Ultra Enables AI ReasoningThe NVIDIA GB300 NVL72 connects 72 Blackwell Ultra GPUs and 36 Arm Neoverse-based NVIDIA Grace™ CPUs in a rack-scale design, acting as a single massive GPU built for test-time scaling. With the NVIDIA GB300 NVL72, AI models can access the platform's increased compute capacity to explore different solutions to problems and break down complex requests into multiple steps, resulting in higher-quality responses. GB300 NVL72 is also expected to be available on NVIDIA DGX™ Cloud, an end-to-end, fully managed AI platform on leading clouds that optimizes performance with software, services and AI expertise for evolving workloads. NVIDIA DGX SuperPOD™ with DGX GB300 systems uses the GB300 NVL72 rack design to provide customers with a turnkey AI factory. The NVIDIA HGX B300 NVL16 features 11x faster inference on large language models, 7x more compute and 4x larger memory compared with the Hopper generation to deliver breakthrough performance for the most complex workloads, such as AI reasoning.     AZ TRT Shows – related to AI Topic Link: https://brt-show.libsyn.com/size/5/?search=ai+       Biotech Shows: https://brt-show.libsyn.com/category/Biotech-Life+Sciences-Science   AZ Tech Council Shows:  https://brt-show.libsyn.com/size/5/?search=az+tech+council *Includes Best of AZ Tech Council show from 2/12/2023   Tech Topic: https://brt-show.libsyn.com/category/Tech-Startup-VC-Cybersecurity-Energy-Science  Best of Tech: https://brt-show.libsyn.com/size/5/?search=best+of+tech   ‘Best Of' Topic: https://brt-show.libsyn.com/category/Best+of+BRT      Thanks for Listening.

Buckle up for a wild ride through the digital apocalypse with Katherine Dee, where influencers are dying, AI's churning out slop, and Substack's the artisanal Etsy of writing in a world drowning in fluff. From the collapse of legacy media to TikTok as "digital fentanyl," she's got the scoop on how we're all losing our humanity to screens—yet craving real connection so bad we're anthropomorphizing our toasters. Touch grass or go transhuman? Hollywood's fleeing LA, kids are Wild Westing online, and nobody beats Gen X when it comes to phone brain rot. It's a postmodern nightmare where there's no such thing as "too soon" in the face of memeing tragedy—dive in, because this future's weirder than you think. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Walk-Ins Welcome with Bridget Phetasy - Podcast Bridget Phetasy admires grit and authenticity.

It's a 252 pages report with the foreword of António Guterres, the Secretary-General of the United Nations, talking about digitalization and sustainability. And, for once, it's not another report from the UN stating “let's digitize everything to boost sustainability”. Quite the contrary as it states a “unequal ecological exchange between developed and developing countries regarding digitization”. To discuss this “scientific report based on an ethical approach” as he described it, we welcome one of its contributors, Pablo José Gamez Cersosimo, based in the Netherlands. Another contributor, Paz Pena Ochoa, based in Chile, joined us to share her unique perspective on Latin America.

Currently, women have been one of the slowest groups to learn and engage with NFTs, cryptocurrency, and Web 3.0. If you are clueless about what any of these things are, or you've heard about all of them but still don't feel confident enough to explore, you're not alone. Women only made up 16% of the NFT market. The NFT market is huge and consists of many layers of engagement and roles from all sorts of people. Until now, women have been showing very little interests, and this is the first episode Lisa is bringing a wildly successful NFT artist, Sara Baumann, up front to share how we can begin to change these disproportionate spaces that exists. NFTs are still new enough for you to become an early adopter and seize the opportunities being presented to you.

In this episode, Daniel Fava addresses a common concern many therapists have—technology.  It's no secret that a lot of therapists shy away from new digital tools, whether it's due to fear of change, lack of time to learn, or simply feeling like technology doesn't fit into their practice. But what if embracing tech could make therapy more efficient, engaging, and accessible?  Daniel chats with Amity Cooper to explore this, who shares her insights on how therapists can leverage technology like AI and virtual reality to enhance their work and improve client care.  Amity is a professional counselor with a diverse background in business and mental health. Holding dual master's degrees in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and Conflict Resolutions, she has traversed a career path from marketing and product development to the mental health field. Her entrepreneurial background has not only given her a fresh perspective on therapy but also led her to coin the term "Therapreneur," which describes therapists who embrace both clinical work and entrepreneurship. Throughout the episode, Amity shares how therapists can benefit from thinking like business owners while still delivering high-quality care to clients. She believes that combining therapeutic expertise with smart business practices can help therapists run thriving, sustainable practices. But the conversation doesn't stop there! Amity and Daniel dive into some cutting-edge topics like AI (artificial intelligence) and VR (virtual reality) and how these technologies are starting to transform the therapy space.  While technology can feel intimidating to some, Amity encourages therapists to push past their fears and embrace the future. Whether it's using AI-powered chatbots or note-taking tools that simplify admin work or introducing clients to VR experiences that create immersive therapeutic environments, there's a lot of potential for these tools to elevate therapy practices. This conversation will help you shift your mindset and see how integrating these tools can empower both you and your practice.   Key Takeaways: Innovation in Therapy: Amity Cooper wants therapists to think beyond the therapy room and adopt a "Therapreneur" mindset. By blending therapy skills with business know-how, therapists can build successful and innovative practices. AI as a Co-Pilot: AI isn't something to be afraid of! Amity talks about tools like ChatGPT and Decipher AI, which can help therapists manage their workload by automating tasks like writing, engaging with clients, and even creating content for blogs or social media. This frees up time for therapists to focus on what matters most—helping clients. The Power of VR: Imagine being able to take your clients into a fully immersive environment where they can safely confront their fears or practice new skills in a controlled space. That's the power of virtual reality in therapy, and it's opening up new possibilities for enhancing client experiences. Bridging the Tech Gap: The mental health industry has been slow to adopt new technologies, and Amity believes it's crucial to close that gap. By staying current with tech advances, therapists can improve their services and meet clients' evolving needs. Empowering the Profession: One of the biggest takeaways from this conversation is that therapists should be part of the technological revolution in mental health. If clinicians don't embrace these changes, there's a risk that tech companies might take the lead and leave therapists out of the equation. Amity's message is clear—therapists need to be involved in shaping the future of their field.   Links mentioned in this episode: Clinical Career Collective Website Do This First Bootcamp Clinical Career Collective on Facebook Connect with Amity on LinkedIn Amelia by XRhealth  

After waiting over three years for "one of the worst recessions ever anticipated that never happened," Edward Yardeni, president and chief investment strategist at Yardeni Research, says that the economy is now moving forward without much recession worry, buoyed by consumer spending — especially from Baby Boomers — and rate cuts from the Federal Reserve that he considered mostly unnecessary. Yardeni sees the economy going through another "Roaring 20s" period, and while the one a century ago ended in the Great Depression, he does think that outcome is not inevitable provided the government can keep debt and deficit levels under control while riding out the benefits of the "Digital Revolution" that includes all of the excitement around artificial intelligence and technology. Kendall Dilley, portfolio manager at Vineyard Global Advisors says the market's technicals are showing all green lights for a continuing bull market, and investors should lean in and treat downturns as buying opportunities. Dilley makes a case for the Standard & Poor's 500 to reach 7,500, getting as high as 6,400 by year's end, with only "normal pullbacks" on the road to that higher level. Plus, we revisit a recent conversation with Axel Merk, president and chief investment officer at Merk Investments — manager of the ASA Gold and Precious Metals — on why gold has worked better as a geo-political hedge than as a buffer against inflation.

Episode 53 | Future-Ready IT OfferingsThe Big Themes:ServiceNow's innovation: Wayne Sadin talks about ServiceNow, which Bob recently wrote about, as a first mover in the market, leading the way in creating intelligent solutions that facilitate interoperability between different applications and workflows. This innovation reflects a broader trend in the tech industry toward integrated platforms that can handle diverse business needs without forcing organizations to invest in multiple standalone tools.Interoperability focus: Vendors should prioritize creating systems that allow for seamless interoperability and integration across various platforms. Interoperability is not merely about compatibility; it encompasses the ability to facilitate data sharing and process integration among disparate systems.Multi-cloud strategies: Wayne notes the importance of multi-cloud strategies, suggesting that flexibility and the ability to connect different systems will be crucial for organizations looking to avoid vendor lock-in. In an era where no single cloud provider can meet every organization's needs, a multi-cloud approach allows businesses to select the best solutions tailored to their specific requirements.The Big Quote: “The answer for every vendor is, to facilitate interoperability, make it easy for me to do my job better. Yes, you could build a walled garden, like the cloud vendors all did . . . That's the resort of the person with the inferior product . . . I want the ability to interoperate. I want them to all think this is not a zero-sum game."
