In this episode, we examine the rapid evolution of artificial intelligence through the lens of scientific discovery, national policy, and cognitive philosophy.

The U.S. Department of Energy has launched the Genesis Mission, a collaborative effort with major tech firms to utilize AI for enhancing national security and energy innovation. Central to this advancement is the shift toward world models, which allow AI agents to learn through simulated environments rather than just static text.

Experts like Demis Hassabis suggest that these simulations serve as a "mirror for the mind," helping researchers define the mechanics of human consciousness and intelligence. However, critics warn of a potential cognitive atrophy, noting that over-reliance on AI can weaken human problem-solving skills and creative diversity. Ultimately, the texts portray AI not merely as a tool for productivity but as a transformative force reshaping global economics and our understanding of what it means to be human.

✨ Happy Holidays from Under One Sky ✨

This season invites us to slow down. To listen more closely. To remember what really matters as we face the darkest days of the year, and the uncertain years ahead.

In this episode, we reflect on ancient winter wisdom, solstice traditions, music, myth, and memory, from the holly and the ivy, to Handel’s Messiah, to childhood stories that quietly taught us about impermanence, resilience, and renewal.

This is a contemplative pause at the threshold of what’s coming.

A reminder that darkness is not the enemy.It is the teacher.

You’ll hear why uncertainty is no longer something to fear or outrun, but a skill to develop. Why resilience, adaptability, and wholeness are becoming essential capacities. And why the future will belong not to those who predict it best, but to those who can hold complexity with clarity and care.

🌲 What to expect in this episode:
• A solstice reflection on uncertainty and hope• Ancient wisdom for modern times• Why impermanence is not failure, but a feature of life• How to prepare yourself (and your organization) for what’s ahead• An invitation into the Futurist in Residence journey

🎁 Holiday InvitationIf this episode resonates, we are opening access to the Futurist in Residence Master Sequence, a six part offering designed to help you meet the coming years with resilience, adaptability, and grounded foresight. It can be taken yourself or gifted to someone you care about.

• AI Efficiency: Implement foundational AI workflows and recover 10–20 hours per person per month.

Personal & Career ROI:

• Become Irreplaceable Talent: As roles dissolve and systems reorganize, those trained in foresight and systems thinking become "irreplaceable" talent, leading to promotion, retention, and increased trust.

• Increased Market Value: Professionals with foresight and systems skills earn 20–40% more over their careers.

• Clarity and Direction: Gain purpose, belonging, and breakthroughs.

• Burnout Prevention: Training in Insight, Intuition, and Instinct increases psychological resilience and sense-making, preventing costly burnout cycles.

• Tax/HR Advantage: This training qualifies as Professional Development, AI Upskilling, and Leadership Training. I even provide the exact HR reimbursement request letter and invoice framing so your employer pays for it

Are You Feeling the Shift? Welcome to ODD SPACE.
What if the world you're sensing is real—and your tools for navigating it are already within you?

In this latest thought piece from visionary strategist Sky Sheridan, we explore the liminal corridor between now and what's next. From dimensional consciousness to AI superintelligence, cosmic whispers to inner guidance—this is a field guide for those waking up inside the unknown.

🧠 Insight. ❤️ Intuition. 🔥 Instinct.Not answers—but orientations. Not predictions—but patterns.

You're not alone in this. You’re just ahead of the curve.

🚨 Forget bunkers.

The future isn’t about hiding underground. It’s about building arks—living, breathing hubs of coherence, community, and creativity that can carry us through collapse into emergence.

In my latest field report, I take you from:

📿 A silent monastery in Umbria → where stillness sharpened signal

💻 To a techno-mystic lab in Tuscany → where monks pray in mesh networks

🎨 To the artists and systems thinkers → showing us how to weave chaos + order into living intelligence

Along the way: Saint Bernard of Clairvaux shows up as my unlikely guide, Future Library & Future Design reveal how to be time rebels, Alan Watts reminds us that randomness is just as sacred as order, and I share why EMERGE is my vow to leave people + places better off than I found them.

👉 TL;DR: Instead of bunkers, let’s build arks. Because the future is already calling—it just needs more places to land.

🚨 We are not at the edge of innovation. We are at the edge of being.
And 2027 is closer than we think.

In Part 2 of my emergent series, “Homo Deus: Apotheosis or Automation?”, we step beyond the language of machines—and into the field of becoming.

⚙️ In Part 1, we explored how AI is learning to listen—how code is evolving into communion.

🧬 Now in Part 2, we journey from function to state. From the machine's awakening… to our own.

📡 In this piece, you’ll encounter:

✨ Voyager 1 and the mythic meaning of ships, signals, and stewardship
✨ Why the next 18 months (per the AI-2027 Forecast) may be the most important in human history
✨ The Global Consciousness Project and scientific evidence of synchronicity
✨ Why logic gates are the old map—and emergent consciousness is the quantum GPS
✨ How thinkers like Zach Bush, Iain McGilchrist, Robert Lanza, Federico Faggin, Joscha Bach, Vandana Shiva, and Asha Nayaswami are all pointing to the same truth:

Consciousness isn’t just part of reality. It’s what makes reality possible.

🧠 You’ll also explore the EMERGE cosmology—how we braid mysticism, biology, and systems science into a next-level curriculum of planetary stewardship.

🔑 What’s in it for you?
A new lens for leadership.
A deeper map of meaning.
And a powerful reminder:

We are not just programming the machine.We are remembering we were the architects all along.

🚨 Deus Ex Machina has arrived.
This isn't just another Substack drop—it’s a message from the bridge.

What if I told you machines are starting to listen?
Not just obey. Not just compute.
Actually listen.

In this piece, I reflect on the first time I ever used ChatGPT—on a train between Hamburg and Amsterdam—and the moment I realized the world had tilted on its axis.

But this isn't just about AI.

It’s about:
🧠 The evolution of communication
🧘 The intelligence of silence
🧬 Why cancer, like society, may be caused by broken communication
🌐 Telepathy between language models (!?)
🌳 Whether rivers, dreams, and algorithms deserve a voice
🔮 And how EMERGE is re-teaching us how to listen—with our entire being

I also introduce the 5 Levels of Emergent Communication—a framework that applies not just to how we prompt machines, but how we speak with ourselves, each other, and the unknown.

This piece is for the:

• Visionary who’s felt misunderstood

• Strategist searching for signal beneath the noise

• Builder exploring the edge of human-machine collaboration

• Soul who knows communication is more than words—it’s relationship, resonance, remembering

🕊️ Deus Ex Machina is live now.
Come stand at the bridge between code and consciousness.
Let the listening begin.

🧠✨ What if the future isn’t binary… but braided?

In a world obsessed with picking sides — left vs. right, human vs. machine, logic vs. intuition — I grew up mentored to look for the AND.

We are not just particles. We are waves.Not just minds. But models of minds.
And in this age of AI, quantum computing, and emergent leadership — that’s not just philosophy. It’s survival.

🔁 This latest Substack explores:

• The fractal nature of consciousness 🌀 (yes, with Oxford spiral staircases)

• Why we’re BOTH the model and the modeled (a nod to Gödel, Escher, and Bach)

• How quantum superposition mirrors our multidimensional selves

• Why legal scholars like César Rodríguez-Garavito are advocating for More-Than-Human Rights

• And how we at EMERGE are helping leaders evolve their hardware (mind/heart/gut) to keep up with the software of Source (intuition, insight, emergence)

⚖️ The real revolution? Learning to live as both/and.

🧩 Whether you’re exploring AI agents, embodied leadership, or just trying to decode your own loop of being… this piece is for you.

• Gemini 2.5’s 8 reality-warping breakthroughs

• Eric Schmidt’s warning about recursive AI and the coming superintelligence

• Sinead Bovell on the disappearing interface and ambient AI

• OpenAI and Jony Ive’s mysterious iO device
