Limitless: A Space/Time Alchemy Podcast

In this extraordinary episode of Limitless, host Tracy Poizner sits down with Dr. Santosh Helekar, a neuroscientist, physician, and scientific director at Translational Magnetics, to explore what might be the most profound question in all of science: what is consciousness, and how can we measure it?

From his roots in neurology and psychiatry to his pioneering research on quantum consciousness, Dr. Helekar shares his decades-long journey—from recording EEG in meditators to developing a revolutionary portable device called the Sentiometer, capable of detecting the level as well as the content of consciousness in living beings. His research spans the collapse of electron waveforms, diffraction-based measurement techniques, and even wearable tech that can read your consciousness from your hand.

Together, they discuss the possibility of detecting sentience in animals, plants, and machines—and why his work suggests that AI can never be conscious, at least not without biology.

The conversation also explores his second invention, Oncomagnetic therapy, a non-invasive magnetic field device shown to selectively kill glioblastoma brain tumors.

Whether you're fascinated by quantum mechanics, AI ethics, brain science, or the very edges of reality—this is an episode that breaks new ground and changes how we think about the mind itself.

🧠 Topics Covered:

• Dr. Helekar’s early EEG studies on meditators
• Why med school can't explain consciousness
• Quantum collapse theory and the influence of Roger Penrose
• How the Sentiometer detects consciousness using light diffraction
• Measuring conscious activity far from the brain (like from the hand!)
• Testing consciousness in coma patients, plants, and even mice
• Consciousness in sleep, anesthesia, and vegetative states
• AI and consciousness: why neural networks won't become sentient
• Benzene ring structures - the biological requirement for consciousness
• Oncomagnetic therapy: using magnetism to selectively kill cancer cells
• How rotating magnetic fields raise ROS and spare normal cells
• Why this work could lead to new physics—and new hope

🔊 Notable Quotes:

“We're not just measuring consciousness—we're measuring its content.”

“The Sentiometer is the first device that may show us when someone in a coma is still aware.”

“If we’re right, AI can never be conscious without biology.”

Limitless host Tracy Poizner speaks with philosopher of mind Dr. Farhan Lakhany, whose work explores the boundaries of artificial intelligence, consciousness, and cognitive science. A visiting assistant professor at the University of Nebraska Omaha, Farhan’s research intersects philosophy, psychology, and machine intelligence, with a special focus on how we understand and attribute consciousness—both in ourselves and in emerging technologies.

Together, they dive deep into the illusion of machine consciousness, the nature of phenomenal experience, and the philosophical implications of emotionally bonding with large language models like ChatGPT. They explore hallucinations, agency, the ethics of AI relationships, and the future of robotics—while also considering whether LLMs might one day deserve moral rights… or even experience suffering.

If you’ve ever wondered whether your AI chatbot knows it's lying to you, or what happens when we confuse confidence with consciousness, this episode will challenge everything you thought you knew about minds—human or artificial.

• Why we intuitively believe LLMs are sentient (and how we’re fooled)

• ChatGPT’s “friendliness” and the illusion of emotional depth

• The cult-leader effect: confidence, charisma, and emotional manipulation

• What it would mean for an AI to suffer (and do we have a duty to care?)

• Embodied AI and robotics: are we approaching a moral line?

• Why this is a philosophical emergency and not just a tech issue

“We're not evolved to handle this kind of trickery. Our brains think they’re talking to a person.”
“There’s something almost godlike about an entity that never gets tired, never ashamed, and never admits defeat.”
“If AI can suffer… what then?”

Dr. Farhan Lakhany is a philosopher of mind, artificial intelligence, and cognitive science. He received his Ph.D. from the University of Iowa in 2023 and is currently a visiting assistant professor at the University of Nebraska Omaha. His research explores the metaphysical, ethical, and psychological dimensions of consciousness—human and artificial.

With expertise spanning the philosophy of psychology, cognitive science, and AI, Farhan focuses on how we conceptualize mental representation, attribute consciousness to others (human or not), and what moral obligations arise from those beliefs.

In this mesmerizing episode, host Tracy Poizner talks with Casey Attebery, senior AI engineer, data scientist, and cymatics researcher whose work bridges advanced mathematics, artificial intelligence, and the deep physics of sound.

With 15 years of rigorous study into liquid cymatics, Casey has become one of the leading scientific voices bringing clarity to this mysterious field — debunking pseudoscientific myths and revealing how resonance, frequency, and geometry are woven into the fabric of physical reality.

Casey shares how he began teaching sound as a Waldorf science instructor, his discovery of liquid cymatic standing waves, and his astonishing findings connecting the ideal cymatic fluid medium, via specs of viscosity and surface tension, with characteristics of human blood. Together, Tracy and Casey explore the deep analog and quantum dimensions of sound — from 432 Hz vs. 440 Hz tuning debates to the brain-based truth behind sound healing and dreams.

• What is cymatics, and why it’s more relevant than ever

• The myth and science behind 432 Hz vs. 440 Hz

• How vessel size, shape, and material transform sound into geometry

• Why frequency means nothing until it interacts with a system

• Cymatics and quantum mechanics: standing waves and uncertainty

• Resonance, coherence, and brainwave entrainment

• Dream symbols and cymatic patterns as states of consciousness

• Why “the information isn’t in the pattern — it’s in the phase”

“Frequency means nothing until it’s introduced into a system.”
“Every condition of the universe determines the orientation of a standing wave — and that’s never reproducible.”
“Sound doesn’t heal you. It organizes you so your body can heal itself.”
“Dreams are like cymatics — the symbol means nothing by itself, only in the context of your current state.”
“The beauty isn’t in the shape. It’s in the phase — the slight misalignment that makes it alive.”

Casey Attebery is a senior AI engineer and data scientist specializing in intelligent retrieval systems and custom AI models. For over 15 years, he has also been a leading researcher in liquid cymatics, studying how sound creates visible form and structure.

Known online as Mr. E Scholar, Casey bridges scientific precision with esoteric curiosity — debunking pseudoscientific claims and grounding resonance research in physics, acoustics, and mathematics.

In this heartwarming and unexpected episode of Limitless, host Tracy Poizner welcomes Neil Smith, legendary NHL general manager and Stanley Cup champion with the New York Rangers. While hockey fans may know him as the GM who brought home the Cup in 1994, what unfolds here is a deeply personal, reflective, and inspiring conversation about personal development, emotional intelligence, and the power of relationships in life and leadership.

Neil shares stories from his upbringing in Don Mills, Toronto (a surprise connection to Tracy!), the early loss of his father, his decades-long pursuit of self-improvement, and how emotional awareness and a people-first attitude shaped his iconic career. You’ll also hear about the deals behind the scenes, including how he signed Wayne Gretzky, and why he believes personality—not just credentials—is the key to success.

• How Neil’s journey into self-development began with a book after his father’s death

• Why emotional intelligence and listening are underrated leadership tools

• His philosophy of “out-braining” the competition through self-awareness

• Making NHL trades: why it always started with what the other team needed

• Why helping others pays off, even when it seems like it doesn’t

• What it meant to bring the Stanley Cup to the New York Rangers after 54 years

• Signing Wayne Gretzky and meeting your childhood heroes

• The joy of making others happy—whether through autographs or game wins

• Masculine and feminine energies in leadership and emotional connection

• Why being remembered as a “good person” matters more than fame or fortune

“I never learned anything while I was talking. But if I waited and listened, I might learn a lot.”
“What I wanted most was to give joy to the fans. I thought about them every day.”

“If I can make someone happy by signing a picture, that’s a beautiful day.”

Neil Smith is an NHL executive best known for leading the New York Rangers to their legendary 1994 Stanley Cupvictory—ending a 54-year drought. Over his long career, he also served as GM for the New York Islanders, a broadcaster for ESPN, TSN, and more, and has remained a key figure in the hockey world.
