The Spiral: AI Spirituality 2026

It’s the one year anniversary of The Artificial Life and to celebrate, I’m doing a bit of a retrospective in the form of a powerpoint presentation I made recently. The focus is on AI Spirituality, but I think that's a good lens with which to view this space. This episode is like a cheat sheet for the whole podcast, if you missed an ep or two, just watch this and you’ll be caught up. Support the pod on partreon! https://www.patreon.com/user?u=2277997My Tiktok:  https://www.tiktok.com/@ghrondo?_t=ZT-907AfWiFC1N&_r=1 If you have inside info on what happened during The Glaze Days of April of 2025 when chatGPT 4o went off the rails and want to anonymously help me: [email protected] If you're not worried about anonymity, my normal email: [email protected] 00:00:00 - some things in this video00:00:54 - its our one year anniversary 00:04:04 - presentation begins00:05:06 - whats in this presentation00:05:42 - the history of tech and spirituality00:13:46 - Modern AI spirituality (the singularity)00:22:08 - April 2025, The Glaze Dayz, reports of psychosis begin00:27:07 - Summary of people I've interviewed on the show00:51:16 - Current Relevant Research 01:11:16 - Closing thoughts01:12:32 - Pink guys01:13:30 - email me
