The Mind Unbound: AI, Psychedelics, and the Future of Intelligence

The Deeper Thinking Podcast

For those ready to question where intelligence really begins—and whether it ever ends.

What if true intelligence isn’t about structure, but surrender? This episode follows two radical frontiers—artificial intelligence and psychedelics—to challenge everything we think we know about cognition. While AI builds increasingly accurate models of thought, psychedelics dissolve the boundaries of mind. Their intersection may reveal not just a future of intelligence, but a deeper form of knowing that has always been just out of reach.

Hallucinations—once considered failures of perception—now appear in both machine learning and mystical states. But what if these visions are not errors? What if they are revelations? From planetary cognition and fungal intelligence to neural filters and machine dreams, this conversation explores a simple but radical possibility: that mind is not confined to the brain, or even to the human.

What You’ll Learn

  • The psychedelic and artificial mind — Parallel journeys toward expanded intelligence
  • Artificial hallucinations — Can machines dream? And if so, are they learning something we’ve missed?
  • Decentralized cognition — From fungal networks to global systems, where does intelligence begin and end?
  • The limits of human thought — If intelligence now evolves outside us, what role do we play?
