On the latest episode of Ctrl-Alt-Reset, we’re asking what might be the most important question of our technological age: As artificial intelligence grows more sophisticated, what separates its calculations from our consciousness?My friends, Steve and Jaime, and I start by exploring the ground floor—the AI that's already here. It’s the force that can generate videos where the line between authentic and artificial is becoming almost impossible to see. But this explosion in capability forces us to look past the "how" and confront the philosophical "what if."What if an AI becomes so advanced that it appears to be conscious? How would we even know?We dive into the history of this question, looking at classic benchmarks like the Turing Test, which focuses on imitation, and the Chinese Room Argument, which questions whether following rules is the same as true understanding. We concluded that these tests are about behavior—they can tell us if a machine is acting like a human, but they can't peek inside the black box to see if there's a subjective experience happening.That’s when our conversation really takes a turn, as we explore the fascinating and controversial Integrated Information Theory (IIT). This is a framework that attempts to move beyond behavior and actually define the physical properties of consciousness itself. IIT proposes a way to measure the richness and complexity of a system's internal experience—whether that system is a human brain or a silicon processor. It led us down a rabbit hole, debating whether we could one day have a "consciousness-meter" and what the inner world of a machine might actually feel like.It's a challenging, mind-expanding discussion that connects technology, philosophy, and the very definition of what it means to be alive.After you listen, I genuinely want to know your take in the comments: Do you think consciousness is a unique biological phenomenon, or is it something that can emerge from pure information?

The very fabric of your perceived reality is about to be shredded. Forget everything you think you know about life, death, and the boundless potential of the human mind. This isn't just another podcast episode; it's an initiation into a profound, visceral experience that will leave you irrevocably changed.

Step into the vortex with us as we journey into the extraordinary world of Beth, a living paradox and a testament to untapped human power. A certified holistic nurse coach, a revered Reiki master, and a channeler whose abilities defy conventional understanding. Her very existence challenges the sterile, materialistic worldview that has long held humanity captive.

Imagine a world where your thoughts are not confined to your skull, where intention manifests with startling precision. Beth lived this as a child, demonstrating telepathic prowess that would make any skeptic pause. Picture a young Beth, in school, her mind reaching out, whispering dinner desires directly into her mother's consciousness. Returning home, her exact culinary request materialized, as if by magic. This wasn't coincidence; it was a direct, undeniable demonstration of the mind’s ability to transcend physical distance and influence the material world.

But telepathy is merely the opening act. Beth's journey delves into realms mainstream science dismisses as superstition. She sees the unseen, walking among those who have transitioned beyond the veil, communing with souls liberated from earthly constraints. This isn't a haunting; it’s a profound connection to the continuity of consciousness, a shattering revelation that death is not an ending, but merely a transformation.

And then, there are the Spirit guides. Beings of pure wisdom and unwavering love, communicating through Beth, offering insights and guidance that transcend human intellect. This isn't just advice; it’s an unfiltered transmission from higher realms, illuminating the path forward in a world often shrouded in confusion. Imagine having access to such profound clarity. This episode offers a rare glimpse into that very connection, showing you that you are never truly alone, and that guidance is always available from beyond the physical.

This episode of Ctrl-Alt-Reset is more than a listen; it’s an invitation to shed the shackles of limiting beliefs. It’s a challenge to dismantle the walls you've built around your own perception of reality. It will force you to confront the very nature of existence, to question the boundaries of what you've been told is possible. Are you truly living in a reality confined by the five senses, or is there an infinitely vaster, more miraculous cosmos waiting to be explored?

Prepare to have your mind not just blown, but utterly reconfigured. Prepare to awaken to possibilities you never dared to dream existed. This isn't theoretical; it’s a living, breathing testament to the extraordinary power that resides within every single one of us, often dormant, waiting to be unleashed.

This is your moment to break free from the matrix of conventional thought. This is your opportunity to redefine your relationship with reality. Tune in to Ctrl-Alt-Reset and embark on a journey that will forever alter your perception of self, of others, and of the universe itself. The revolution of consciousness begins now.

Don't just listen, experience.

What if humanity has never truly been alone? What if thetruth about our origins, our purpose, and our future lies in contact with something far beyond our current understanding?

In this episode of Ctrl-Alt-Reset, we dive headfirst into the mysteries of extraterrestrial life, hidden histories, and the expanding edges of consciousness. Joined once again by my friends Jaime and Steve, we explore the possibility that non-human intelligences have been interacting with humanity—whether physically, energetically, or inter-dimensionally—for longer than we’ve been told.

💫 Jaime opens up about his near-death experience and the profound sense of intelligence, unity, and guidance he felt on the “other side.” Could these experiences connect with the same forces behind alien contact?

🧠 Steve brings his open-minded and questioning perspective as we dig into why society—and the powers that be—have worked so hard to suppress conversations about other life forms, and what could change if that veil were finally lifted.

🌌 We explore the idea that contact isn’t just something happening “out there,” but also within—through consciousness itself. This leads us into some truly mind-expanding topics:

• Alien channeling and messages from beings like Bashar—are they delusions or interdimensional truths?
• Crop circles—elaborate hoaxes or encoded cosmic messages?
• Ancient civilizations like the Sumerians and Egyptians—were the Anunnaki real, and did they shape humanity’s origin story?
• Disclosure figures like Bob Lazar—what are governments really hiding, and why now are we seeing more open conversations about UAPs?
• The alien races described by Ismael Perez, from the benevolent Pleiadians and Arcturians to the manipulative Draco and mysterious Greys—what roles might they play in humanity’s evolution?

As we break down the materialist paradigm and open the door to cosmic awareness, this episode asks a deeper question: What does it mean for human consciousness if we are not alone? And more importantly—what’s possible if we begin to remember who we truly are in the vast network of universal intelligence?

This isn’t about fear, conspiracy, or fantasy—it’s about awakening. It’s about asking better questions. And it’s about preparing for a future where connection—across dimensions, species, and belief systems—is the only way forward.

So plug in, take a breath, and get ready to Ctrl-Alt-Reset.

From Chaos to Clarity: Jimmy’s Journey of Awakening

In this episode of Ctrl-Alt-Reset, we sit down with Jimmy—a once-hardcore partier who turned away from escapism and toward inner peace. After a rough childhood and years of seeking distractions in the hop-hop and rave scenes, Jimmy found his path to purpose after a near death experience in an unexpected place: a Buddhist monastery.

Through spiritual practice, mindfulness, and conscious self-reflection, Jimmy discovered that life isn't something to run from—it's something to be present for. His story is a powerful reminder that transformation is possible for anyone willing to look inward and embrace the lessons life offers.

"Just like good engineering, happiness doesn’t happen by accident. Be mindful of your intentions because that will dictate your attention. Cultivating the tools to be the change you want in your world just requires you to learn how to be present again." - Jimmy Nguyen

Tune in as we explore the power of awareness, the flow of energy in the universe, and how to meet life’s challenges with wonder, not fear. Whether you’re just starting your journey or deep in the work, this conversation will inspire you to reconnect—with yourself, your purpose, and the present moment.

What if the key to understanding life, consciousness, and reality itself lies in our connection—to each other, to the universe, and to something greater beyond the physical world? In this first episode of Ctrl-Alt-Reset, I sit down with my friends Jaime and Steve to explore the profound ways we are all interconnected.

Jaime shares his near-death experience and how it forever changed his perspective on life and the unseen bonds that link us all. Steve brings his open-minded take on why mainstream society downplays these connections and what happens when we start questioning the materialist paradigm.

From the science of quantum entanglement to the deep spiritual truths that have been taught for centuries, this episode will challenge what you think you know about connection—and maybe even change the way you see the world.

It’s time to reset. Let’s question everything.
