What's holding us back? What's holding us back? Ego-based gangster leaders across the world. The world is run by male gangsters. Unfortunately. We can cause a spiritual revolution if we use AI properly. And not through government, maybe through UN, through people. Grassroots.

Mostly in the East, but also in the West. Yes, yes.

And sadly, it seems the ego... See, if we had not discovered fire long, long time ago, we wouldn't have the human brain. Because once we started cooking food, everything about our biology changed. We were able to absorb micronutrients. The brain, the human brain evolved because of the discovery of fire. Had we not discovered fire, we wouldn't have the industrial age.

We wouldn't have the steam engine. Of course, fire burned down Los Angeles City. So fire can destroy a city, but it can also create a steam engine and revolutionize the industrial age. Historically, between 1887 and 1903, which is not even 20 years ago, Humans created the light bulb, the automobile, the airplane, and the telephone. So let's pretend you were shipwrecked in 1885.

You were rescued 20 years later. 20 years later, and you saw the world, you wouldn't recognize it. You would expect horses and carriages, but now you see these machines moving along with horses and carriages. You see people talking on the telephone. You see people flying from one place to the other. You say, what's going on? So that's a leapfrog. of cultural evolution.

The next leapfrog is not only cultural, it's biological, which means that as we acquire this new knowledge and tap into the wisdom of the ages, our neural networks will change. Right now, if people are listening to us or watching us, it doesn't matter. The genes in their frontal cortex are being activated.

If you and I were having an emotional conversation and somebody in Africa or China is watching it, their reptilian brain would change. So what this technology is doing is going to leapfrog our biological evolution and all the things that you heard about in yoga, extrasensory perception, knowledge of the future, memory of other lifetimes, we will have access to that.

Do you think that we have the ability to cope with that? Well, if we don't, we don't adjust, we become extinct. So, you see, humans are different from every species, only two things, other than walking upright and wearing clothes. We use language, and now we have large language models. And the two, we are storytellers, but there's something even deeper. We are toolmakers.

Even in Stone Age, we had tools. But every tool has two things. A knife, you can kill a person in a surgeon's hand. It heals you. So you can't get away from both. The other thing is once a technology is born, you can't take it back. It's like a child that's born. You can't return to the womb. So either you adjust, that's very Darwinian, you adapt or you become irrelevant. So now how do we adapt?

How do we cope? But not only how do we cope, how do we make it sacred?
