In this episode, Cyborg Buddhism Part 2, I explore artificial intelligence and robots as a form of collective intelligence. If you think I'm making this up—I didn't invent the idea. There is an actual Android Kannon, a Buddhist Robot, commissioned by Buddhist priests for a temple in Kyoto, Japan. The links above contain the videos showing how this robot works at the temple.
I create the music for every episode. You can hear more of my music at https://shaunyata.bandcamp.com
