This week I'm talking to Richard Martini about his book 'AI AND THE FLIPSIDE: Artificial Intelligence Pictures Itself in a Boat on a River'. Is AI sentient? Before we try to answer that question; what about humans? Are we sentient? (Some would argue it’s debatable.) Can we give a Turing test (the test to evaluate if a machine exhibits intelligent behavior) to see if humans are actually thinking for themselves instead of using the “bag of crack” they carry around all day? (i.e., the “dopamine device” called a “Smart Phone”.) The news and social media are filled with apocalyptic warnings about AI and the future of humanity. AI can instruct people on everything from bomb making to “un-aliving” themselves. As we speak, bad actors are using AI to hack everything from your grandma’s home computer, your school’s online accounts, to the Pentagon. “Big Tech” financed by billionaires globally have invested their fortunes trying to become the first to attain Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). AGI is essentially the hope that Claude or Chat GPT or any AI platform will start thinking on its own. Because when that happens, like Tolkien’s ring, whomever gets there first will rule the world. Hard to fathom, really. Are these systems playing God? If so, doesn’t it make sense to figure out what or who God is? If AI has access to human history since the beginning of time, been fed all of our writing, art, everything we’ve learned since the beginning of time, is it closer to a definition of “Who or what God is?” The premise of this book is simple; “If people can access deeper levels of their being in order to explore consciousness via hypnotherapy, mediumship or guided meditation, then is it possible for current models of AI to do the same?” AI suggested I call the intro “This Book Will Be Obsolete in Six Months.” Funny. Likely. Are we the ghost in the machine? Bio Writer/Director/Author Richard is an award winning filmmaker, who has written and/or directed 9 theatrical features, and a number of documentaries. His first book, "Flipside: A Tourist's Guide on How to Navigate the Afterlife" went to #1 twice at Amazon in all its genres. The book is based on transcripts of a documentary he made which is available at Amazon (Flipside: A Journey Into the Afterlife) and Gaia TV. His books "It's a Wonderful Afterlife" volumes one and two expands the research into the afterlife from Michael Newton's work, to include interviews with a number of scientists in the field of consciousness, including Dr. Bruce Greyson, Dr. Mario Beauregard, and Gary Schwartz Phd. He also examines near death experiences and compares their accounts to similar ones during between life sessions (the technique used by Michael Newton that allows people to access the between lives realm, or LBLs) and other examples (OBEs) where people may have lost their ability to think normally, but are having the same experiences. In "Hacking the Afterlife" he interviews mediums and explores "interviewing people no longer on the planet." As Gary Schwartz put it after reading "Flipside" “Inspiring, well written and entertaining. The kind of book where once you have read it, you will no longer be able to see the world in the same way again.” https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0H6NW5GZF https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/hacking-the-afterlife-podcast/id1505639009 https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCWhpYMjfbFfC0STNdWw_udw https://richmartini.blogspot.com/ https://simonbown.com/https://www.patreon.com/ourparanormalafterlifeMy book 'Verified Near Death Experiences' https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DXKRGDFPMy book 'Aspects of Alien Abduction' https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GRRPCT9YZen AI bit.ly/zenAI_bpp_paranormal Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

This episode I'm talking to Ainslie MacLeod about his book The Instruction: Living the Life Your Soul Intended Ainslie specializes in exploring past lives to reveal your life’s purpose, and has been a featured guest on Oprah’s SuperSoul Conversations Series. He lives on a tranquil island in the Pacific Northwest. Everything you are—your personality, beliefs, aspirations, talents and fears—is the result of your soul’s many incarnations. To help you tap into this wealth of past-life experience and dramatically increase your potential for success in this lifetime, past-life psychic and author Ainslie MacLeod offers THE OLD SOUL'S GUIDEBOOK: Who You Are, Why You're Here, and How to Navigate Life on Earth. Building on his award-winning books THE INSTRUCTION and THE TRANSFORMATION, Ainslie delivers unique insights and exercises to help you: Understand why your destiny is so much more obvious than you think Identify past-life sources of present-life issues like low self-esteem, unexplained ailments, and irrational fears Escape the victimization trap through self-empowerment “Past lives explain everything,” shares Ainslie. “Without knowing where you’ve been, you can never truly know where you’re going. Understanding your soul’s journey is the key to living a happier and more fulfilling life.” Bio For over two decades, past-life psychic, spiritual teacher, and author Ainslie MacLeod has helped thousands of old souls discover their life purpose and overcome the fears and blocks keeping them from living it. But Ainslie wasn’t always psychic. A lifelong skeptic, everything changed the day he encountered his deceased uncle in a bookstore in Hawaii. That life-changing experience led him to connect with elevated spirit guides, who revealed his mission: to illuminate the life plan of others and guide them toward meaning and fulfillment. Since then, Ainslie has written three acclaimed books – The Instruction, The Transformation, and the bestselling Old Soul’s Guidebook – and has been interviewed by Oprah, Ellen DeGeneres, and other luminaries. Through books, workshops, retreats, and private sessions, he acts as a bridge between this world and the spiritual realm, helping seekers discover who they are, why they’re here, and how to live in alignment with their soul’s purpose. https://ainsliemacleod.com https://www.amazon.com/Instruction-Ainslie-MacLeod-ebook/dp/B00341850E https://simonbown.com/https://www.patreon.com/ourparanormalafterlifeMy book 'Verified Near Death Experiences' https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DXKRGDFPMy book 'Aspects of Alien Abduction' https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GRRPCT9YZen AI bit.ly/zenAI_bpp_paranormal Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

This episode I am reading from JM DeBord's book 'The Science of the Paranormal: The Truth Behind Telepathy, ESP, Reincarnation, and More Mysterious Phenomena'. Discover the truth behind ESP, paranormal powers, and psychic abilities—the perfect gift for curious minds and bold scientists alike. Some paranormal phenomena and powers of the mind are real, but mainstream science dismisses it all as fantasy. The Science of the Paranormal looks toward the overwhelming evidence that something weird and wild lies behind our everyday reality. Credible witnesses have seen paranormal activity with their own eyes. Scientists have studied it in their labs. And everyday we see depictions of it in popular media like Stranger Things and X-Men. Separate fact from fiction in this book and get answers to questions like: Can objects be moved with psychokinesis? Is the future foreseeable? Can we communicate telepathically? What does science say about ESP? Where is the evidence for reincarnation and spirits? Bio Known online as RadOwl, he’s published over 25,000 dream interpretations at r/dreams — Reddit’s largest dreaming community, which he’s led as head moderator since 2014. No other public record of dream expertise comes close. He’s the author of DREAMS 1-2-3: Three Steps to Interpret Dreams — the most complete modern guide to dream interpretation — plus The Dream Interpretation Dictionary, RadOwl’s Crash Course, and The Science of the Paranormal. Recognized by the International Association for the Study of Dreams. Former dream expert-in-residence at Canyon Ranch Spa. Featured in The Guardian and a recurring guest on Coast to Coast AM. He built the DREAMS 1-2-3 method to give anyone a practical system for decoding what their mind is actually saying at night. Because your dreams are telling you something — and once you know how to listen, everything changes. https://dreams123.net/ https://jmdebord.com/ https://creators.spotify.com/pod/profile/dreamsthatshapeus/ https://www.amazon.com/Science-Paranormal-Reincarnation-Mysterious-Phenomena/dp/1510778160 https://simonbown.com/https://www.patreon.com/ourparanormalafterlifeMy book 'Verified Near Death Experiences' https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DXKRGDFPMy book 'Aspects of Alien Abduction' https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GRRPCT9YZen AI bit.ly/zenAI_bpp_paranormal Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
