He explores how Maximus's understanding of creation as incarnation challenges traditional views of time and the nature of the incarnation itself. Wood argues that the incarnation is not merely a historical event but the very logic of creation, revealing a deeper connection between God and humanity. He emphasizes the importance of scripture and personal experience in shaping Maximus's theological insights, ultimately presenting a vision of a God who desires to be in relationship with creation. In this conversation, JDW explores the implications of viewing creation as an incarnation, addressing concerns about pantheism and secularism. He discusses the ethical responsibilities that arise from this perspective, particularly in relation to how we treat the poor and the environment. The dialogue also delves into the theological implications of animals in heaven, drawing on the thoughts of Maximus. Furthermore, JDW reflects on the historical reception of Maximus's ideas and the dynamic nature of tradition in theology, emphasizing the importance of engaging with both historical and contemporary theological insights.Check out his book: https://amzn.to/4dpkFI8Check out his Substack: https://substack.com/@jordandanielwood1Read my writings: https://austinsuggs.substack.com/Chapters00:00 Introduction to Maximus and Universalism06:20 Maximus's Vision of Creation as Incarnation12:46 Theological Implications of Time and Incarnation22:28 Plan A vs. Plan B: The Nature of the Incarnation25:54 Maximus's Approach to Theology: Scripture and Experience33:17 The Ethical Implications of Creation as Incarnation39:20 The Nature of God and Creation46:45 Theological Reflections on Animals in Heaven52:37 Maximus and the Reception of Tradition01:01:01 Tradition and the Dynamic Nature of TheologySupport the show

Welcome to episode #983 of Six Pixels of Separation - The ThinkersOne Podcast. Matthew Weinzierl is not just thinking about the future of the economy - he's thinking about the economy of the final frontier. As a professor at Harvard Business School and a Research Associate at the National Bureau of Economic Research, Matt brings the analytical rigor of economic policy to a space sector that's shifting from sci-fi to IPO. In our conversation, we unpack the big thesis behind his new book Space To Grow - Unlocking The Final Economic Frontier(co-authored with Mehak Sarang Rousseau), which reframes space as something more than spectacle or science - it's a place where real economic value is being created right now. This isn't about day trips to orbit or Mars hotels (not yet). It's about the role of market forces, national security, broadband access, sustainability, microgravity manufacturing, and the essential debate between centralized control and decentralized innovation. Matt has built a career studying tax policy and the philosophical underpinnings of economic systems, and now he's applying that lens to a commercial space industry that's still defining its rules. We talk about SpaceX's dominance and what it means for competition, the outdated frameworks of international space law, and why economists are uniquely suited to help structure the future of space activity. We also explore the symbolic and practical value of human exploration, and how figures like Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos shape the public's understanding of what's possible (and what might be hype). What makes Matt so compelling is his clarity... he doesn't get swept up in the cosmic dreams without asking who benefits, who governs, and what kind of economic system we're building in orbit and beyond. If you've been curious about the real forces shaping the space economy - and what it might mean for Earth - this episode is a must-listen. Enjoy the conversation... Running time: 58:47.

Fresh from the Archives of the Impossible conference at Rice University, Kelly and Jay sit down to unpack one of the most talked-about moments of the weekend—a provocative presentation by Dr. Garry Nolan on his involvement with the Skywatcher initiative.Skywatcher is an emerging public-facing effort claiming to demonstrate CE5-style contact, utilize psionic assets, with the aim of potentially reverse-engineering non-human technologies. The implications are enormous—and so are the questions.In this wide-ranging, deeply reflective conversation, Kelly and Jay explore:The strange and rapid emergence of Skywatcher and the implications for the disclosure movementThe increasingly blurred lines between whistleblower testimony, media spectacle, and operational theaterThe question of who's leading the charge into direct contact with non-human intelligences—and whyThe need to balance the objectives of science and venture capital against humanitarian, ethical, and philosophical questions in our quest for contact—and why that will almost certainly not happen.The potential cost of accelerating contact without asking the deeper metaphysical, spiritual, and cultural questionsWatch Cosmosis: UFOs & A New Reality:https://www.cosmosis.media/Join the Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/cosmosismediaSubscribe to Cosmosis:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Cosmosis.PodcastSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7KnyktIs059pbVdccD020D?si=f3835f36a8cb479dApple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/cosmosis-formerly-the-ufo-rabbit-hole/id1595590107Follow CosmosisX: https://x.com/cosmosis_mediaFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/share/12EEyNVPucu/?mibextid=wwXIfrInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/cosmosis.mediaListen to the Cosmosis Soundtrack by Michael Rubino:Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/album/5Xvs2NAHNbKjfW7hWkjqey?si=pJPPgIPsRZGkZjJh19UULQApple Music: https://music.apple.com/us/album/cosmosis-ufos-a-new-reality-season-one-original-soundtrack/1788465117Amazon: https://amazon.com/music/player/albums/B0DS5WY5CB?marketplaceId=ATVPDKIKX0DER&musicTerritory=US&ref=dm_sh_zY05XPzhLhuow5dAgK3g2W9yCTIMESTAMPS02:18 Exploring Sky Watcher's Initiatives03:38 Jake Barber's Revelations05:22 CE-5 and Public Disclosure07:16 Community Reactions and Ethical Questions15:39 Garry Nolan's Scientific Perspective20:56 Technological Worldview and Ethical Implications30:03 Heidegger's Philosophy and Technology39:20 The Value of Human Life in a Technological Age40:17 The Ethical Implications of Technological Intelligence43:55 The Concept of Hyper Objects and UFO Phenomena45:54 The Great Filter and Technological Surveillance47:52 The Role of Experience in Understanding Phenomena51:19 The Spectacle and Mediated Reality56:09 Dwelling vs. Dominating: A Philosophical Approach To Contact01:05:31 The Importance of Bracketing in Phenomenology01:07:57 Balancing Speed and Methodology in Disclosure01:11:00 Concluding Thoughts and Future Directions

It's been a wild week. One of those weeks where the headlines are loud, the hype is high, and the truth is somewhere buried underneath. If you've been wondering what to make of the claims that GPT-4.5 just “beat humans,” or if you're trying to wrap your head around what Google's massive AGI safety paper actually means, you're in the right place.As usual, I'll break it all down in a way that cuts through the noise, gives you clarity, and helps you think deeper, especially if you're a business leader trying to stay ahead without losing your mind (or your values).With that, let's get to it.GPT-4.5 Passes the Turing Test – The headlines say it “beat humans,” but what does that really mean? I unpack what the Turing Test is, why GPT-4.5 passing it might not mean what you think, and why this moment is more about AI's ability to convince than its ability to think. This isn't about panic; it's about perspective.Google's AGI Safety Framework – Google DeepMind just dropped a 145-page blueprint for AGI safety. That alone should tell you how seriously the big players are taking this. I break down what's in it, what's good, what's missing, and why this moment signals we're officially past the point of treating AGI as hypothetical.Shopify's AI Mandate – When Shopify's CEO says AI will determine hiring, performance reviews, and product decisions, you better pay attention. I explore what this shift means for businesses, why it's more than a bold PR move, and how to make sure your organization doesn't just talk AI but actually does it well.Ethical AI in Relationships and Interviews – A viral story about using ChatGPT to prep for a date raises big questions. Is it creepy? Is it smart? Is it both? I use it as a springboard to talk about how we think about people, relationships, and trust in a world where AI can easily impersonate authenticity. Hint: the issue isn't the tool; it's the intent.I'd love to hear what you think. Drop your thoughts, reactions, or disagreements in the comments.Show Notes:In this Weekly Update, Christopher Lind dives into the latest developments at the intersection of business, technology, and human experience. Key discussions include the recent passing of the Turing test by OpenAI's GPT-4.5 model, its implications, and why we may need a new benchmark for AI intelligence. Christopher also explores Google's detailed technical framework for AGI safety, pointing out its significance and potential impact on future AI development. Additionally, the episode addresses Shopify's strong focus on integrating AI into its operations, examining how this might influence hiring practices and performance reviews. Finally, Christopher discusses the ethical and practical considerations of using AI for personal tasks, such as preparing for dates, and emphasizes the importance of understanding AI's role and limitations.00:00 - Introduction and Purpose of the Update01:27 - The Turing Test and GPT-4.5's Achievement14:29 - Google DeepMind's AGI Safety Framework31:04 - Shopify's Bold AI Strategy43:28 - Ethical Implications of AI in Personal Interactions51:34 - Concluding Thoughts on AI's Future#ArtificialIntelligence #AGI #GPT4 #AIInBusiness #HumanCenteredTech

In this episode of Crazy Wisdom, host Stewart Alsop talks with Rosario Parlanti, a longtime crypto investor and real estate attorney, about the shifting landscape of decentralization, AI, and finance. They explore the power struggles between centralized and decentralized systems, the role of AI agents in finance and infrastructure, and the legal gray areas emerging around autonomous technology. Rosario shares insights on trusted execution environments, token incentives, and how projects like Phala Network are building decentralized cloud computing. They also discuss the changing narrative around Bitcoin, the potential for AI-driven financial autonomy, and the future of censorship-resistant platforms. Follow Rosario on X @DeepinWhale and check out Phala Network to learn more.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversation!Timestamps00:00 Introduction to the Crazy Wisdom Podcast00:25 Understanding Decentralized Cloud Infrastructure04:40 Centralization vs. Decentralization: A Philosophical Debate06:56 Political Implications of Centralization17:19 Technical Aspects of Phala Network24:33 Crypto and AI: The Future Intersection25:11 The Convergence of Crypto and AI25:59 Challenges with Centralized Cloud Services27:36 Decentralized Cloud Solutions for AI30:32 Legal and Ethical Implications of AI Agents32:59 The Future of Decentralized Technologies41:56 Crypto's Role in Global Financial Freedom49:27 Closing Thoughts and Future ProspectsKey InsightsDecentralization is not absolute, but a spectrum. Rosario Parlanti explains that decentralization doesn't mean eliminating central hubs entirely, but rather reducing choke points where power is overly concentrated. Whether in finance, cloud computing, or governance, every system faces forces pushing toward centralization for efficiency and control, while counterforces work to redistribute power and increase resilience.Trusted execution environments (TEE) are crucial for decentralized cloud computing. Rosario highlights how Phala Network uses TEEs, a hardware-based security measure that isolates sensitive data from external access. This ensures that decentralized cloud services can operate securely, preventing unauthorized access while allowing independent providers to host data and run applications outside the control of major corporations like Amazon and Google.AI agents will need decentralized infrastructure to function autonomously. The conversation touches on the growing power of AI-driven autonomous agents, which can execute financial trades, conduct research, and even generate content. However, running such agents on centralized cloud providers like AWS could create regulatory and operational risks. Decentralized cloud networks like Phala offer a way for these agents to operate freely, without interference from governments or corporations.Regulatory arbitrage will shape the future of AI and crypto. Rosario describes how businesses and individuals are already leveraging jurisdiction shopping—structuring AI entities or financial operations in countries with more favorable regulations. He speculates that AI agents could be housed within offshore LLCs or irrevocable trusts, creating legal distance between their creators and their actions, raising new ethical and legal challenges.Bitcoin's narrative has shifted from currency to investment asset. Originally envisioned as a peer-to-peer electronic cash system, Bitcoin has increasingly been treated as digital gold, largely due to the influence of institutional investors and regulatory frameworks like Bitcoin ETFs. Rosario argues that this shift in perception has led to Bitcoin being co-opted by the very financial institutions it was meant to disrupt.The rise of AI-driven financial autonomy could bypass traditional banking and regulation. The combination of AI, smart contracts, and decentralized finance (DeFi) could enable AI agents to conduct financial transactions without human oversight. This could range from algorithmic trading to managing business operations, potentially reducing reliance on traditional banking systems and challenging the ability of governments to enforce financial regulations.The accelerating clash between technology and governance will redefine global power structures. As AI and decentralized systems gain momentum, traditional nation-state mechanisms for controlling information, currency, and infrastructure will face unprecedented challenges. Rosario and Stewart discuss how this shift mirrors previous disruptions—such as social media's impact on information control—and speculate on whether governments will adapt, resist, or attempt to co-opt these emerging technologies.

From Capitol Hill to the mortgage industry, AI is everywhere. It's even finding its way into the halls of government. But while AI promises innovation, it's also raising a ton of questions—especially for policymakers.Last year, Congress introduced over 350 AI-related bills, and while many of these bills simply served to spark debate, it's clear that lawmakers are considering everything from data privacy to mitigating bias in algorithms. Now, with a new Congress in session, the real question is: will AI regulation finally take center stage?Although no property-focused AI bills made it to the floor last session, there's been plenty of groundwork. From Senate hearings on AI in financial services to conversations about the technology's impact on housing, policymakers have been laying the foundation for regulation. One theme keeps emerging: the need to balance innovation with fairness.Technology often moves faster than regulation, but if regulators move too fast or ignore industry concerns, it could stall progress. And then there's the wildcard: the Supreme Court's 2024 repeal of the Chevron doctrine, which shifted interpretive power from agencies to the courts. This means Congress now has to be ultra-specific when drafting laws, which could further slow regulation initiatives.The future of AI regulation may be uncertain, but one thing's clear: the stakes couldn't be higher. In this episode of Core Conversations, host Maiclaire Bolton Smith and Russell McIntyre, an expert in public policy and industry relations at CoreLogic, discuss the need for AI regulation and how the government could approach this task.In This Episode:1:50 – Is the U.S. government currently regulating AI? What about AI in the property industry?5:19 – Whose responsibility is it to regulate AI?7:19 – How will the Chevron doctrine going to influence AI regulation in Congress?10:00 – What are the concerns and opportunities if AI regulations change in the property industry?12:28 – How will AI affect climate science?14:27 – Erika Stanley goes over the numbers in the property market with The Sip.15:26 – Is it impossible to eliminate inherent bias in AI technology?17:49 – How will the U.S. government handle AI and how can companies prepare for upcoming regulations around AI?Up Next: What Are the Ethical Implications of AI in the Property Industry?Links: What Are the Ethical Implications of AI in the Property Industry?SEC Climate Disclosure Guidance Timeline Pause: Why Companies BenefitExplore CoreLogic DataHazard HQ Command CentralRead CoreLogic Intelligence Find full episodes with all our guests in our podcast archive here: https://clgx.co/3HFslXD5 Copyright 2025 CoreLogic What Are the Ethical Implications of AI in the Property Industry?SEC Climate Disclosure Guidance Timeline...

Justin Garson, professor of philosophy at Hunter College and the Graduate Center City University of New York and author of "Madness: A Philosophical Exploration," has emerged as one of psychiatry's most compelling critics. In this explosive episode, he challenges everything we've been told about mental illness, revealing why depression, ADHD, and even schizophrenia aren't brain diseases – they're adaptive responses that may have kept our ancestors alive. From his father's struggle with schizophrenia in the Nixon era to his own teenage experience with depression, Garson exposes how the "broken brain" narrative has robbed us of agency, created dependency on psychiatric drugs, and ignored the real roots of human suffering. Whether you've been diagnosed with a mental illness, take psychiatric medication, or simply wonder about the nature of human consciousness, this conversation will fundamentally change how you think about mental health in modern society.Justin Garson WebsiteJustin Garson on X RADICALLY GENUINE PODCASTDr. Roger McFillin / Radically Genuine WebsiteYouTube @RadicallyGenuineDr. Roger McFillin (@DrMcFillin) / XSubstack | Radically Genuine | Dr. Roger McFillinInstagram @radicallygenuineContact Radically GenuineConscious Clinician CollectivePLEASE SUPPORT OUR PARTNERS15% Off Pure Spectrum CBD (Code: RadicallyGenuine)10% off Lovetuner click here—-----------FREE DOWNLOAD!

2024/11/05 ~ Episode 450 - Artificial intelligence. It's a term we hear a lot these days, but what does it really mean for the church And how can we make sure it's a safe tool We are excited to have James Poulter, a leading expert in AI, to shed some light on these questions. Next on the Church Solutions Podcast.

“I agree that humans will always want to work with humans and that we're gonna always favor it in a lot of ways, especially because of the spontaneity, the creativity, the vibe. Kids love to use the word vibe, but we want the vibe and AI doesn't have the vibe. Kids are really good at detecting AI, really good at it…. They pick it out way before their parents. So they're really tuned into it. So I think that's what's going to keep it at bay in terms of being a true creative tool for really a long time.” – Sean Savage This episode is the second half of my Clubhouse discussion with voice actor and Sound Off Media Company owner Matt Cundill, Home Studio Mastery founder Junaid Ahmed, podcast producer and AR Media host Sean Savage, Spoken Life Media founder and Podcast Hall of Fame Inductee Rob Greenlee, and long-time podcaster and audio technology consultant George Whittam, as we discuss the future of AI, what sets machine and human learning apart, and building your own AI clone.As always, if you have questions for my panelists, you're welcome to reach out through the links in the show notes.

(0:00:00) - AI and the Future of TechnologyThe second half of our conversation begins as we talk about the impact of AI on everything from social media to politics, and what that might mean for its future. “I interviewed David Pogue earlier this year,” George says, “and he's done a tremendous amount of AI research and experimenting, and he's like, it hasn't yet swung an election that we know of, so maybe we shouldn't be too worried. But it's just something to think about, and I think about it all the time.” The topic turns to AGI, or Artificial General Intelligence. “That day is coming,” Rob tells us. “I don't know if it's five years from now, ten years from now, that it surpasses, you know, the ability to think and process information, um, better than a human, but I think it's coming and once that happens, it's going to change everything.”(0:06:44) - Ethical Implications of AI UseWe talk about the ethics of AI usage, and whether there's any practical difference between how AI models are trained and how children naturally learn. “Even if your older brother is telling you ‘don't copy me,'” Junaid notes, “guess what? Your younger siblings are still going to copy them. There's no lawsuit against that. You know, that's how human beings are literally taught.” George describes his experience with feeding an AI all his writing content to help it learn his writing style, and we discuss the prospect and legality of such AI ‘clones.' “If you went and scraped pretty much all the work that you've done and voiced,” Matt says, “packaged it up to create an AI model, you then can own the licensing of that AI voice and be paid for it. But if somebody else went and did it, the answer would be no. But, as we've discussed, some people are out there doing it and saying ‘tough beans.'”(0:17:45) - AI Usage and Ethical ConcernsThe conversation turns from creating new content with AI to revisiting old content through the lens of machine learning. George talks about old recordings and the potential to restore them and add sound elements that have been...
