.
What part of you must die for humanity to survive the age of artificial intelligence?
Description:
In this gripping second half of the conversation, Jeff Burningham and Dov Baron go deeper into the crisis and opportunity of our time. AI is reshaping economics, politics, leadership, and identity, but Jeff argues the real transformation begins inside each of us.
.
Drawing on his experience as an entrepreneur, investor, bishop, political candidate, and now author of The Last Book Written by a Human, Jeff lays out what he believes are the four stages of human and technological evolution: disruption, reflection, transformation, and evolution.
.
He warns that AI will accelerate everything we have not resolved within ourselves. Division, greed, and power games are already cresting. If we do not evolve, we collapse. But Jeff is not a pessimist. He sees a doorway into a new kind of leader, a new kind of human, and a possible renaissance in human consciousness.
.
This is not a discussion about machines. It is a discussion about the soul, responsibility, ego death, and the courage to change the story before the story changes us.
