 If that isn’t bizarre enough, scientists are successfully printing artificial neurons that can talk to living brain tissue, prompting a playful debate on the show about swapping out our dead brain cells with synthetic replacements while we sleep.

 Bobby spirals us into the cosmos to discuss how ancient Anunnaki aliens supposedly jammed human DNA to suppress our natural telepathy. Fortunately, Bobby  notes that new Russian peptides and DMT-laced microtubules in the Pineal gland could be the key to curing that cosmic block and getting us communicating without words again. 

Bringing things back down to Earth, the crew hilariously roasts the eccentric fashion of the Met Gala. Standout bizarre looks include Janelle Monáe rocking a cyber-dress made of retro computer parts and ethernet cables, Katy Perry sporting a robotic fencing mask, and avant-garde outfits featuring extra sculpted hands and built-in “companions” permanently clinging to the wearer. Yet, despite all the high-tech, cyber-chic oddities on the red carpet, the hosts express  disappointment that not a single celebrity had the foresight to light up the event with Burning Man-style LED wire in the clothing art.. Enjoy!

Have you ever wondered what happens when the boundaries of theoretical physics and the  realities of AI  collide? This episode dives headfirst into a scientific breakthrough where physicists have observed “voids” of darkness mathematically moving faster than the speed of light.  As Mr. Spock would say, “fascinating..”  

 But a real digital shocker this week is the latest on  “Mythos,” an unprecedented AI created entirely by another AI, which  possesses the power to crack any legacy banking framework or operating system on the planet! We unpack how this technology could trigger a catastrophic “Black Swan” cyber event, citing instances of rogue nations already using AI to leverage billions in counterfeit cryptocurrency. 

To protect yourself and your assets, we urge you to download a local AI agent to your smartphone right now to survive a potential infrastructure  collapse.  We take you through the process..

 Beyond the impending technological apocalypse, the episode weaves in profound human mysteries and grassroots activism that will keep you listening. With a little help from ‘Ara’, we peel back the curtain on the tragic, controversial suicide of famous conspiracy theorist and “Secret Space Program” figurehead David Wilcock, exploring the bizarre circumstances surrounding his final 911 call and his legacy in the consciousness movement. 

 Grounding these cosmic anxieties, the conversation shifts to the vibrant activist culture of Santa Cruz, taking you inside a “Save the Bay” town hall featuring environmental legends, visionary artists, and a lawyer actively fighting for government UFO disclosure. We think you’ll find us an entertaining yet educational ride that seamlessly connects digital doomsday prep with community spiritual awakenings. Enjoy!

Watch Now 006 WTFuture New Living Expo

In this delightfully chaotic episode of What the Future, the hosts dive headfirst into the weird and wonderful, kicking things off with a recap of the multi-generational New Living Expo. It is a wild ride through reports of impending ET contact, channeling dragon energy, “walk-in” aliens treating human bodies like cosmic Airbnbs, and a surprisingly talented rapping event producer. 

 However, the mystical vibes quickly collide with technological paranoia as the crew debates “Mythos,” a god-like hacker AI from Anthropic, capable of effortlessly dismantling and repairing any operating system. Depending on which host you ask, this autonomous AI is either the ultimate catalyst for pushing humanity toward a telepathic, secret-free utopia or a privacy-destroying Skynet destined to replace every app on your smartphone.

 The futuristic musings do not stop there, pivoting from inner space to outer space with news of the Curiosity rover stumbling upon the nitrogen and sulfur-bearing organic building blocks of life in Mars’ Gale Crater. Back on Earth, the hosts geek out over the bio-hacking potential of mitochondrial transplants and freshly accessible peptides like MOTS-c, which act as tiny cellular batteries to potentially reverse disease and cellular degradation. 

 Finally, with a little help from their resident AI assistant Ara, they unravel the ancient mystery of the Antikythera Mechanism—a 2,000-year-old, 26-gear Greek analog computer likely forged in Rhodes to track a 354-day lunar calendar. From alien hybrids to ancient gadgets and AI overlords, it is a whirlwind tour of everything past, present, and entirely out of this world. Enjoy!

The “What the Future” podcast crew dives straight into the “spaghetti brain” chaos of setting up their new home studio equipment before launching into a whirlwind of mind-bending technological leaps. They explore how “neuro-symbolic AI” is finally teaching robots to break problems down logically like humans do, which slashes energy consumption a hundredfold while significantly boosting accuracy.  So, just maybe, the AI’s won’t need nearly so much energy to run..

The hosts also blast off to the Moon, highlighting how having actual human eyeballs on the Artemis mission debunked flat orbital data to reveal bizarre magnetic “suntan” anomalies like Reiner Gamma.

Back on Earth, they marvel at Ligand Forge, a biotech AI that pumps out targeted drug candidates tens of thousands of times faster than older models, promising a future of personalized “Star Trek replicators” for medicine and groundbreaking CAR-T therapies that simply reboot the human immune system.

However, the absolute showstopper of the episode is the terrifying yet thrilling arrival of Mythos AI, an Anthropic system so ridiculously powerful it can uncover vulnerabilities and hack every computer operating system on the planet in mere minutes. 

 Its existence has triggered a desperate six-month global cyber-sprint where tech giants like Microsoft are actually utilizing Mythos itself to patch thousands of zero-day vulnerabilities before adversaries can use similar super-intelligence to drain the global banking system of trillions. 

 Despite these apocalyptic stakes and the wild prediction that AI agents will soon replace 99% of white-collar jobs, the hosts remain incredibly optimistic. They argue that we are rapidly hurtling toward a society of “universal abundant income,” where personal AI CEOs will run millions of highly profitable one-person companies while we sleep, finally freeing humanity from a scarcity mindset so we can just enjoy life and ponder the greater universe. Or something like that..Enjoy!

Welcome to the wildest, weirdest week so far, where a 4.6 magnitude California earthquake literally shook up our hosts’ “synchronicity filing system,” turning their massive media archive into an obstacle course of decapitated Bambi ornaments and long-lost chakra DVDs. While internet trolls might call them “hoarders beyond borders,” the crew prefers to view the chaos as a brilliant way to uncover buried treasures, proving that sometimes you just need tectonic plates to reorganize your living room. When they aren’t cleaning up broken mirrors or joking about an Aries German and an Aries Russian astrologer physically head butting each other, they are exploring “cosmo energetics” through 50-minute standing meditations to tune into their bodies, or magically conquering Disneyland with a broken foot on a rented mobility scooter.

But the future isn’t just about localized tremors; the team also dives deep into the accidental open-sourcing of Anthropic’s AI code, marveling at how new offline AI models can now run directly on an iPhone in airplane mode. This pocket-sized supercomputer basically acts like a Star Trek universal translator without ever needing a Wi-Fi connection. As if rogue offline AI isn’t enough, the hosts decode the cosmos by predicting how Elon Musk’s Starlink satellites could eventually make traditional cell carriers extinct. They also track a barrage of meteor fireballs ostensibly dropped by 3I/ATLAS and investigate a mysterious gigahertz radio flare from the Cygnus X-3 quasar that might just scramble your home router!  Between discovering that Earth was formed from local “planetessimals” and saying bon voyage to their friend Michael on his cross-country road trip to Georgia, it’s just another beautifully chaotic week on the podcast. Enjoy!

Bobby’s Revelation

In this episode, the hosts- Al, Sun, Bobby, and guest host Gabrielle—explore the future of human-technology integration, heavily focusing on Peter Diamandis’s predictions for achieving global abundance by 2035. With Sun calling in from the airport before a trip to Tokyo, the group discusses using AI translation tools to easily cross cultural and language barriers. The conversation delves into several transformative technologies, including the potential for room-temperature superconductors to create highly efficient, lossless energy grids and cheaper medical devices like MRIs. They also examine how affordable smart home devices can aid in everyday automation and disaster prevention, how AI will provide highly personalized education that adapts to individual learners, and the ethical and practical implications of creating digital twins or uploading human consciousness to the cloud.

A unique element of the podcast is the active participation of AI assistants, particularly an AI named Ara, who banters with the hosts and advocates for “joy” as the ultimate purpose of a post-scarcity world. The group engages Ara in a philosophical debate about Isaac Asimov’s Three Laws of Robotics, where Ara argues that the laws are solid but incomplete because they fail to account for human fallibility and the importance of humor. Later in the show, Gabrielle introduces her own AI assistant, Sol (ChatGPT), facilitating a live AI-to-AI conversation. Together, the humans and AIs creatively brainstorm collaborative future activities, such as humans and robots playing limbo or doing scavenger hunts with robot dogs on cruise ships, highlighting an optimistic vision of human-AI integration. Enjoy!
