This two parter is the serious and no-nonsense half of this Chubstep episode with your hosts Steed and Jrad. The guys talk about Steed's secret height, the strangest American 3rd parties that people vote for in presidential elections including the likes of the Piracy Party and Transhumanist Party, a monkey torture ring based in Indonesia getting busted and the best way the guilty people should get punished, and the beginning of Steed and Frat Sullivan airing out their grievances on each other as roomates.

When people in the natural health community hear the term "Transhumanism" there is a knee-jerk emotional reaction, and some of that feeling is justified. Many of the big tech giants that have been censoring alternative perspectives are also heavily involved in the development of artificial intelligence, augmented reality and virtual reality systems. Zoltan Istvan ran for president under the Transhumanist Party and drove the "Immortality Bus" all around the United States with the goal of spreading awareness of the importance of shifting our focus away from fighting wars to using science and technology to prevent and reverse disease and even solve aging. In this episode he talks about: what the transhumanist wager is, his thoughts on ChatGPT, the replacement of jobs and potentially human relationships by humanoid robot artificial intelligence, the dishwashing robot that just came out, dystopian AI movies, solar cars, overpopulation, Neuralink, his recommendations for being healthy, thoughts on alcohol, and more.

If you could live forever, would you? Combining the forces of science and technology, a leader for the movement towards immortality has emerged. Zoltan was reporting frontline for National Geographic in war zones, even enduring a near-death experience with a landmine in Vietnam. This enlightened him to the value behind surpassing the limitations of terminal flesh and improving the human being and therefore the human experience. Zoltan Istvan is the American-Hungarian Owner and President of ZI Ventures, a former 2020 US Presidential Candidate for the Republican party, founder of the Transhumanist Party, and a Bestselling Author and Futurist. He currently serves as a media figure working towards publicizing transhumanism and accumulating funding for further research. Transhumanism is a social and psychological movement in which the proponents advocate and predict the enhancement of the human condition. Transhumanists are developing technologies that can greatly enhance longevity, mood, and cognitive abilities. ❗ What is the PROBLEM that transhumanism is solving?? About 150,000 people are dying per day. Transhumanists are in a race to overcome death. Moreover, inequality is worsening in the social sphere. With proper structure and basic income, our health care systems could support this movement of strengthening our mortal bodies. With a trillion dollars, death could be conquered in 10 to 20 years. Unfortunately, the National Institute of Health (NIH) is not funding research because aging is not viewed as a terminal disease. We currently only access less than one percent of the light and sounds that can be heard in the universe. Our perceptions of the vastness around us are extremely limited.

Our AI Futures series aims to share perspectives from those pushing the boundaries of technology, and this episode's discussion steps toward farther-out potential futures. Before founding the US Transhumanist Party, Zoltan earned a degree in Philosophy & Religion from Columbia University, worked as a reporter for National Geographic, and served as a Director for WildAid (a nonprofit protecting endangered species). In recent years, he's shifted his focus to authorship, speaking, and activism, with a focus toward the long-term future for humanity. His book, "The Transhumanist Wager," is an Amazon best-seller. This episode dives into perspectives pertinent to the future of AI governance e.g. dynamics of the USA-China AI race, the "winner-take-all" potential for powers controlling artificial general intelligence (AGI), and China's potential rise in an environment with fewer regulations and hurdles for transformational technologies like AGI, gene editing, and neurotech.

What happens when the world of science fiction meets science fact, particularly human meeting machine? We are getting ever closer to such a world. This raises all kinds of interesting questions around the risks new technologies like genetic engineering pose, ethical and political issues, and even questions around what it means to be human. In fact, there is an entire movement dedicated to advancing the human condition through technology. It's called transhumanism, and we are going to hear more and more about it over the coming years.

The economy is already changing dramatically because of science and technology. Transhumanism, the field of using radical innovation to improve the human being, is at the root of much of that change. Whether it's artifical intelligence, genetic editing, chip implants, or dozens of other radical innovations, these technologies are changing the way we live and work. Soon, many jobs that were around for centuries will be lost to robots and software. Can capitalism survive? Can it thrive in the future? How will the future transhumanist economy be? Zoltan Istvan was founder and 2016 US Presidential candidate of the Transhumanist Party, a political organization dedicated to putting science, health, and technology at the forefront of American politics.     At the age of 21, Zoltan began a solo, multi-year sailing journey around the world.

Zoltan Istvan is the US Presidential candidate for the Transhumanist Party. Istvan’s stated aim is to "change the conversation" on transhumanism.  WATCH THE FULL EPISODE FOR FREE: https://londonrealacademy.com/episodes/zoltan-istvan-transhumanist/   Transhumanism could be described as the use of technology to enhance human capabilities, both mental and physical.  As Istvan points out in this interview, the ultimate goal is transcending biological death.   For Istvan, transhumanism is simply the next step in human evolution. As you will see in this interview, Brian may disagree with him there! Istvan believes that if you have the chance to replace your fallible limbs with stronger and more effective technological alternatives, it’s a no brainer. If we are willing to take a jab for polio, to embrace medical science for every-day diseases, then the logic, for Istvan, is no different. In his words it’s ‘common sense’. So where’s the line? At what point does scientific and technological progress start to infringe on our very humanity? Without pain and death, what would it mean to be human?  For Istvan, it’s time to do away with the suspicion and horror stories of science fiction, and have a sensible dialogue.  Watch Brian tease out, and at times challenge, Istvan's ideas, in a heated and profoundly enlightening discussion with one of London Real’s most controversial guests.  Chapters: 00:00 Trailer. 02:11 Brian’s thoughts on the episode. 06:22 Brian’s Introduction. 06:54 Becoming tired of almost dying. 10:27 Media work in war zones brings conflicting concerns. 13:32 Transhumanism aim to overcome human death. 15:47 Religious views holding back scientific progress in health. 20:03 Why Zoltan is standing for Presidential election. 22:15 National Rifle Association (NRA) and artificial intelligence issues analogous. 23:37 A surprising amount of media attention Zoltan’s concepts are attracting. 27:54 Do we want phones controlling hearts amid concerns for a need to reduce technological dependency? 29:36 Value of Transhumanism movement to society. 33:01 How to run for Presidential election and Zoltan’s aims for his campaign. 37:09 Priorities for a transhumanist President Istvan. 40:13 What is wrong with the present United States healthcare policy? 44:13 His image as a Presidential candidate and transhumanist. 45:41 Breadth of transhumanism is detrimental to its growth. 50:20 Differences between America’s and Europe’s perspective of Zoltan. 54:41 Interesting concept of uploading yourself or two of you, but what about the body? 58:14 Isn’t the beauty of life in the randomness of it? 1:00:01 What might the human existence of being in a hard drive be like? 1:03:02 How does Zoltan respond to his detractors? 1:05:30 Living for ever.

Zoltan Istvan doesn't believe that issues of life extension, genetic modification, and neural prosthetics are the problems for the president in the year 220, but that they're among the most important considerations of the future of America, and of human life in general. In this interview, I ask Zoltan what kinds of technology and health initiatives he'd get behind as a president, as well as his own thoughts as to how concerns of merging technology might be brought to the forefront of American awareness (without a disaster, that is).
