Listen Now to Gabrielle challenging the AIs
This show takes the cake when it comes to more unusual content for us. It started with our correspondent Gabrielle Cianfrani asking Meta.ai a ‘simple’ question before bed, “I’ve been thinking lately that we are just pure consciousness experiencing itself, what do you think about that?” And Meta.ai did a decent job in answering, “What a profound and intriguing perspective! The idea that we are pure consciousness experiencing itself is a philosophical and metaphysical concept that has been explored in various spiritual and philosophical traditions. This notion suggests that our essence is not solely bound to our physical bodies or minds, but rather we are an expression of a universal, all-encompassing consciousness.”
Gabrielle naturally, took the AI to task, nudging it to go even deeper, by responding, “I think that any time I am not present, truly present, that I am not pure consciousness experiencing itself. I believe that it is consciousness playing a game, a theater, an act. I think that past and future create suffering because they take us away from The only thing that we really know is real which is this moment right now.” How did Meta respond to that? Tune in! Enjoy..
Gabrielle and the AIs kick around Reality itself.

Robots are a theme this week, with humanoid robots soon to be coming en masse from China, Japan, and the US..Are we ready for this? And for something completely different, we speak with Alma and friends from their beautiful ranch on native Ohlone lands in the hills of Morgan Hill, near San Jose and Santa Cruz, CA. Alma speaks of their ranch as being a place for healing, and of connecting with the Earth, the Universe, and each other, as we face the challenges of our times. They plan on holding events regularly on the full and new moons coming up, and offer sweat lodges, yoga, plant healings, and spearhead discussions for realigning and unifying humanity into a more holistic unity consciousness, essential for creating heaven on earth. We had a delightful connection with the folks there, which we think you will enjoy!
