Redefining Society and Technology Podcast | Musing On Society and Technology | Hosted by Marco Ciappelli | Let's face it: the future is now. We live in a Hybrid Analog Digital Society and it's time to stop ignoring the profound impact technology has on us. The line between the physical and virtual worlds is no longer real—it's a figment of our imagination. We're constantly juggling convenience, privacy, freedom, security, and the very future of humanity in a precarious balancing act. There’s no better place than here, and no better time than now, to reflect on our relationship with technology and redefine what society means in this new age.

    Will AI End Evolution? Exploring the Next Stage of Society with J.J. Jerome, Author of "Evolution Ended" | A Redefining Society And Technology Podcast Episode Hosted By Marco Ciappelli

    Exploring the End of Evolution in the Age of AI Welcome back, everyone, to another episode of Redefining Society & Technology. I’m your host, Marco Ciappelli, and today we’re diving deep into a topic that has fascinated, puzzled, and, let’s admit, worried us all—evolution and its future in a world dominated by technology. 
Joining me is J.J. Jerome, author of Evolution Ended: The Next Stage of American Society. His book is bold, thought-provoking, and unapologetically challenging. If you’ve read Yuval Noah Harari’s Sapiens or Ray Kurzweil’s The Singularity Is Nearer, you’re in for a similar mind-expanding ride.
