Did you know that Philip K. Dick—the author of such classic novels and short stories as Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? (which inspired Blade Runner), The Minority Report, Total Recall, and The Adjustment Bureau—made startling predictions in the early 1980s before his death? His works influenced films like The Terminator and The Matrix, but he also foresaw developments in artificial intelligence, virtual reality, and humanity’s eventual surrender to computers. He even warned of a future social credit system.
One of Dick’s revelations was about the CIA’s Operation CHAOS, which spied on over 7,000 Americans, including Dick himself. This followed an experience that convinced him we’re living in a simulation, complete with “glitches” in the system. In essence, he was among the first to suggest we’re living in a Matrix-like reality. He warned that government agencies were targeting him, and shortly afterward, he was found dead.
Join Ben Chasteen and Rob Counts on this Edge of Wonder live show to hear in Dick’s own words how he predicted and cautioned humanity about the dangers of granting excessive authority to artificial intelligence. At the end, don’t miss the live Q&A followed by a meditation/prayer exclusively on Rise TV. See you out on the edge!
