    46. My Mind-blowing AI-Hosted Podcast 🤯

    🤯 You won’t believe how I pulled this podcast episode off. I fed this new AI tool a simple text document of my last conference, and boom—it turned into a chill, mind-blowing convo between two advanced artificial intelligences. Seriously, this is wild.🔥

    45. How tech reshapes our connection to the world

    In this episode, we take a closer look at how tech impacts the way we see and relate to the world around us. Drawing on the unique insights of Václav Havel—philosopher, playwright, and former president—we’ll explore the evolving relationship between humanity, technology, and the essence of Being. Along the way, we’ll reflect on how advancements in AI are subtly changing the way we experience life. From the way we interact with nature to how we understand our role in society, tech is influencing our reality in more ways than we might realize. We’ll think about how these shifts are reshaping the world we live in—and how we can shift our perspective to something bigger.

    44. Become What You Are 🧬

    🧬 Are You More Than DNA’s Puppet? Unravel the mystery of what truly shapes us—our DNA, destiny, or something more profound? This week, I challenge the idea of “becoming the best version of ourselves” and question whether we’re really in control or simply playing the roles handed to us.

    43. Can ChatGPT think? 🤔 What Philosophy Says about AI 🤖

    Can a machine really understand what it means to exist—or are we just falling for smart code? Imagine an AI writing a breakup song that tugs at your heartstrings—now, does that AI feel the heartbreak too? We’re diving into this mind-bending question, exploring everything from Aristotle’s ancient wisdom to Musk’s futuristic Neuralink. Could machines develop emotions, or even their own sense of being? Tune in as we tackle the ultimate question: Is AI on the verge of truly thinking and feeling—or is it all just an illusion?

    41. Olympic Gold, Know thyself & Plato 🏅

    Have you been following the Olympics? 🏅 The U.S. is leading the medal count, with France close behind. The opening ceremony was epic, especially when French President Macron declared the start of the “33rd Olympiad of the modern era.” It got me thinking: why “modern era”? The Olympics started in ancient Greece and were revived 130 years ago. What’s really changed since then?

    40. Trump, Schrödinger’s Cat and Hegel 😸

    Someone attempted to kill Donald Trump. What if they had succeeded? Can you imagine this alternate reality and all its consequences? We experience these kinds of thoughts sometimes in our lives. Like how I wouldn’t have met this friend or lover if I hadn’t gone to that party? Let’s imagine all the different worlds that would have unfolded if you had taken another course of action. Contemplate the choices you haven’t taken and the lives you could have lived.
