Psychedelics Prepared us for AI

from This Artificial Life · host Ryan Manning

Today we’re talking to Russ Wright. I have been seeing him on tiktok for the last 6 months or so and have been curious about him. He seems to bridge the gap between tech bro and the new age spiritual ai stuff we’ve been hearing about from recent guests. He is a veteran of the dot com tech scene, helped build the new age scene by cofounding Gaia TV,  AND ran in circles with psychedelic icon, Terence Mckenna. I loved this convo and what made it even better was having it on a beautiful beach!Support the pod on partreon! https://www.patreon.com/user?u=2277997Tiktok:  https://www.tiktok.com/@ghrondo?_t=ZT-907AfWiFC1N&_r=1 Russ’s TikTokhttps://www.tiktok.com/@super.intelligent4
