I've been hanging around the United Nations these past few days attending events related to consultations on lethal autonomous weapons systems—so-called killer robots. These are AI-powered weapons systems that can select and strike targets without human control. This is not the stuff of science fiction. These weapons exist today, and they are becoming more powerful—and, frankly, more accessible. They can be relatively inexpensive and deployed by both states and non-state actors, including terrorist groups. As of now, there are no meaningful international regulations governing the use or development of these lethal autonomous weapons systems. There is a clear gap in our global governance of these technologies. Here at the United Nations, delegates have been discussing ways to close that gap—potentially through a new legally binding international treaty to regulate or even ban some of these systems. My guest today, Anna Hehir, is at the forefront of this effort. She is the Head of Military AI at the Future of Life Institute. In our conversation, Anna explains exactly what these weapons entail, where and how they are being used today, and what the future may look like if they continue to be developed without rules or oversight. We then discuss the process of getting a potential treaty on lethal autonomous weapons systems—and why, even if key players do not join such a treaty, it could still make a meaningful difference.  

For all the handwringing about saving democracy, government "of the people, by the people, and for the people" has given way to bureaucracy. Now, government of, by, and for unelected, unaccountable bureaucrats rules America. But the 40 Days for Life Institute of Law & Justice is fighting back!  On this episode of The 40 Days for Life Podcast, our general counsel, Matt Britton, gives an update on the legal landscape of abortion... ...as well as how 40 Days for Life is: -Working alongside law enforcement to protect unborn children in states like Missouri and North Dakota; -Catching Planned Parenthood's IRS violations--and holding the abortion giant accountable; -Ending the legal persecution of 40 Days for Life leaders; -Much more!

What is the relationship between our cognition and our bodies in the natural environment? How do we reconcile the presence of mind in life without splitting them into a dualism? What are the similarities between cognitive science and the buddhist view of the mind? How can we resist the bifurcation of nature into subjective and objective?In this episode we have the important topic of embodied cognition to raise our awareness about, that is the importance of our biologically lived experience to our perspective of world. So we get into the biologist and neuroscientist Francisco Varela's concept of Autopoiesis, literally ‘self creation' from the Greek, which describes the extraordinary tenacity of self-organising living systems to create and sustain themselves; we discuss the meeting point of buddhism, meditation, asian philosophy and modern cognitive science which may have become overstated in recent decades; and we get into the deep continuity between body and mind, and the importance of the artificial separation of the objective and subjective in the history of science, that has led us to the dominant position of reductionist materialism.To face these diverse topics, we have as our guest the hugely influential philosopher, cognitive scientist and Asian philosophy scholar Evan Thompson. Evan is Professor of Philosophy at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver and an Associate Member of the Department of Asian Studies and the Department of Psychology (Cognitive Science Group). He is also a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada. He is the author of many books, collected works, and papers, including “The Embodied Mind: Cognitive Science and Human Experience”, “Mind in Life”, “Why I'm not a buddhist” and “The Blind Spot, why science cannot ignore human experience”.What we discuss:00:00 Intro.06:30 Francisco Varela and the “Embodied Mind” book.11:00 Embodied experience, embedded in the environment.13:15 Chalmers and Clarke: Extended mind.15:30 Autopoiesis - Self-creation. Maturana.21.25 Autonomy and enactive self-organising systems.24:30 Neither Inside out, nor outside in, rather relational.26:00 The Enactive relationship between organism and environment.29:00 Mind is a distributed systemic process in connection with the environment.34:00 Neurophenomenology - you need an investigation from within.38:40 Mind in life & Deep Continuity.40.00 Sense making and cognition are proto-mind.41:30 Whitehead and the bifurcation of nature into subjective and objective.44:45 Bottom up/ parts VS top down/ wholes.47:00 Reductionism: the surreptitious substitution.53:45 Buddhism & The Mind and Life Institute.01:03:30 Buddhist exceptionalism.01:05:00 Neuroscience & Buddhism on self.01:09:45 The commercialisation of meditation - spiritual narcissism.01:12:15 The benefits of mindfulness to treat mental heath.01:13:30 De-individualisation of spiritual practices - social practice for social problems.01:15:45 Ritualisation of practice for positive transformation.01:18:30 Dependent Origination and the Self.01:26:15 Dying: Our ultimate transformation. References:Evan Thompson, “The Blind Spot”Evan Thompson,“Mind In Life”Evan Thompson,“Why I'm not a buddhist”Evan Thompson, “Waking, Dreaming, Being”Alfred Lord Whitehead - The Bifurcation of nature articleDavid Bohm - “Wholeness and the Implicate Order”Evan Thompson quote from the episode:“Mind is a systemic property or process.

We talk about autonomy, killer drones, ethics of hands-off decision making, treaties, the perspectives of people and countries outside the major powers, risks of losing control, data center monitoring, and more.  All this plus our usual look at today's AI headlines.

Host John Sherman conducts an important interview with Anthony Aguirre, Executive Director of the Future of Life Institute. The Future of Life Institute reached out to For Humanity to see if Anthony could come on to promote his very impressive new campaign called Keep The Future Human. The campaign includes a book, an essay, a website, a video, it's all incredible work. Please check it out:https://keepthefuturehuman.ai/John and Anthony have a broad ranging AI risk conversation, covering in some detail Anthony's four essential measures for a human future. They also discuss parenting into this unknown future.In 2021, the Future of Life Institute received a donation in cryptocurrency of more than $650 million from a single donor. With AGI doom bearing down on humanity, arriving any day now, AI risk communications floundering, the public in the dark still, and that massive war chest gathering dust in a bank, John asks Anthony the uncomfortable but necessary question: What is FLI waiting for to spend the money? Then John asks Anthony for $10 million to fund creative media projects under John's direction. John is convinced with $10M in six months he could succeed in making AI existential risk dinner table conversation on every street in America.John has developed a detailed plan that would launch within 24 hours of the grant award.

During a struggle to overcome chronic pain, Micheila Sheldan awakened to her intuitive gifts, launching a journey to better understand her connection to spirit and the universe. After meeting a very special guide, Jacob, she was lead down a synchronistic path of physical, emotional and spiritual healing, leaving behind her mainstream life to uncover a mission she has brought to this planet in many incarnations. Through her connection to Jacob and many others, Micheila completely healed her pain and stepped solidly onto her soul's path as a trance channel. She now shares channeled teachings with international audiences through live events, radio and television interviews, live courses, writings and private sessions. Micheila understands that her purpose in this life is to usher lightworkers through a very turbulent and significant dimensional shift on the earth.To accomplish this, she has access to a variety of Guides, Ascended Masters, Teachers, Philosophers, Interdimensional Beings and Collectives, including Mary Magdalene, the Pleiadians , the Council of Light and many others. Micheila channels detailed information about our history, creation, structure, ascension and transition to a fifth dimensional consciousness. She is also able to transmit light coded frequencies and vibrational healings as a vessel for crystalline light through channeled messages and activations. Micheila's personal mission is to inspire others to fearlessly live their soul's higher purpose. Having bridged the gap between two completely different dimensional realities, her story inspires audiences to let go of the fear holding them back from embodying their authentic selves and creating a new, more meaningful human experience. Micheila serves as Executive Director of the Flower of Life Institute, a volunteer organization focused on raising the consciousness of the planet. In this position, Micheila works with volunteers on a variety of projects ranging from conscious action initiatives and youth programs to the organization's international expo and magazine.Please enjoy my conversation with Micheila Sheldan.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/next-level-soul-podcast-with-alex-ferrari--4858435/support.

In today's episode, we explore the challenges and ethical considerations of artificial intelligence development with Dr. Christopher DiCarlo, a revolutionary philosopher, professor, and AI ethicist. Is proactive governance necessary in this topic area? Is artificial intelligence capable of surpassing human intelligence? Tune in to decide for yourself! Dr. DiCarlo is the author of Building a God: The Ethics of Artificial Intelligence and the Race to Control It, a book that addresses the future of AI and whether ethical governance can be achieved by identifying the key components, obstacles, and points of progress gained so far by the global community. He can often be found teaching in the Faculty of Philosophy at the University of Toronto and the Life Institute at Ryerson University in Toronto.  Join in now to discover: How philosophical ideas extend into science to help us better understand why humans reason the way they do.  The benefits of learning the “relation of systems” and “information theory.” How to get the very best that AI has to offer while limiting the very worst that could happen. What “chain of thought” system is, and what it means for the capacity of large language models. From healthcare and education to manufacturing and sustainability, AI-powered tools will likely improve productivity and enhance how massive global industries operate. However, it may be necessary to proceed with caution in order to avoid irreversible harm… To learn more about Dr. DiCarlo and his ongoing work, be sure to visit his website!

In a world of turmoil where the only certainty is uncertainty, what happens if we who yearn for a future we'd be proud to leave behind began really to speak the quiet part out loud? What happens if we acknowledge the meaning crisis of our culture and state clearly that we need a world based on Love: on the raw, wild, wonder of life itself? And what happens if we shape our politics around this, instead of defensive attempts to make the death cult of predatory capitalism feel less... deathly?This week's guest, Jamie Bristow is someone who lives in the worlds where policies are made and, for the past sixteen years, he has been consciously committed to being a Spiritual Warrior with all this implies. Like Jon Alexander, Jamie started off life as an advertising executive before realising he needed to align his inner and outer worlds.  Now, he's a writer and policy advisor working at the intersection of inner and outer transformation and sustainability. For eight years, he was clerk to the UK's All Party Parliamentary Group on Mindfulness and director of the associated policy institute, the Mindfulness Initiative, (where he helped to introduce mindfulness to a number of other parliaments).  During this time he worked with legislators around the world to make mindfulness and compassion training serious matters of public policy and catalysts for a healthier political process. In 2023, he joined the Inner Development Goals team to lead on public narrative and policy development, emphasising the inner skills and qualities needed for a sustainable transition. His work includes influential reports such as Reconnection: Meeting the Climate Crisis Inside Out and The System Within: Addressing the inner dimension of sustainability and systems transformation. He is an associate of Life Itself, The Climate Majority Project, Mind & Life Institute and Bangor University.Jamie's website https://www.jamiebristow.com/Jamie's substack https://jamiebristow.substack.com/Jamie on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/jamiebristow/Mindfulness Initiative Mindfulness initiative UN IDG Inner Development Goals Life Guild lifeguild.earthTransformative Skills Guide Transformative Skills Guide: Expanding the Definition of Climate Literacy (co-authored with US gov climate literacy experts)Jamie's Wiki psycho-social dimensions of societal resilience Desmog https://www.desmog.com/2024/08/06/between-optimism-and-despair-the-messy-middle-paths-through-climate-breakdown/Reconnection: Meeting the Climate Crisis Inside Out https://www.themindfulnessinitiative.org/reconnectionThe System Within: addressing the inner dimensions of sustainability and systems transformation https://www.clubofrome.org/publication/earth4all-bristow-bell/The Mindfulness Initiative Report on the result of 10 years of mindfulness in Westminster https://www.themindfulnessinitiative.org/mindfulness-in-westminster-reflections-from-uk-politicians Soulmaking Dharma with Catherine McGee https://www.buddhistinquiry.org/courses/immersive-online-programs/soulmaking-dharma/SoulMaking Dharma teachings  https://hermesamara.org/teachings/soulmaking-dharmaSoulMaking Dharma Course https://www.buddhistinquiry.org/classes/2025-introduction-to-a-soulmaking-dharma/

Max Tegmark's Future of Life Institute has called for a pause on the development on advanced AI systems. Tegmark is concerned that the world is moving toward artificial intelligence that can't be controlled, one that could pose an existential threat to humanity. Yoshua Bengio, often dubbed as one of the "godfathers of AI" shares similar concerns. In this special Davos edition of CNBC's Beyond the Valley, Tegmark and Bengio join senior technology correspondent Arjun Kharpal to discuss AI safety and worst case scenarios, such as AI that could try to keep itself alive at the expense of others.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Is AI the latest chapter in our long history of creating an all-knowing God? AI ethicist Christopher DiCarlo certainly suspects it is. In his new book "Building a God: The Ethics of Artificial Intelligence and the Race to Control It, DiCarlo argues that we are creating AI systems with godlike capabilities that will eventually exceed all human intelligence through their ability to make unprecedented inferences and connections. Like so many other self-styled ethicists, DiCarlo emphasizes the urgent need to establish ethical guardrails and principles for AI development. He expresses both hope for AI's potential benefits, particularly in medicine, while warning about the risks of losing control of super intelligent systems that might, one day, develop their own ethical frameworks. Given that AI development is currently largely controlled by profit-driven companies and shaped by geopolitical competition rather than ethical considerations, DiCarlo advocates for raising public awareness and establishing robust international oversight bodies (similar to the IAEA for nuclear weapons) to govern AI development. He argues that AI's potential for systemic manipulation and control makes it potentially more dangerous than nuclear weapons, as it wouldn't require human intervention for the technology to destroy humanity. Christopher is a Senior Researcher at Convergence Analysis, an AI consultancy. He teaches in the Department of Biology at the University of Toronto and The Life Institute at Toronto Metropolitan University and is a past Visiting Research Scholar at Harvard University. He is the founder of Critical Thinking Solutions, the Ethics Chair for the Canadian Mental Health Association, a lifetime member of Humanist Canada, and an Expert Advisor for the Centre for Inquiry Canada. Christopher has published three books, including an international best-seller. He has won several awards including TV Ontario's Big Ideas Best Lecturer in Ontario Award and Canada's Humanist of the Year.Named as one of the "100 most connected men" by GQ magazine, Andrew Keen is amongst the world's best known broadcasters and commentators.
