The real question isn’t just about AI or EVs—it’s whether technology can serve the imagination, and help us build a world that feels more human, not less. Somewhere between lithium and love, algorithms and archetypes, lies the real frontier: a future powered not just by machines—but by the human creative spark. 

In this episode, filmmaker Chris Paine—known for his seminal documentaries Who Killed the Electric Car? and Do You Trust This Computer?—joins host Harmanjot for a charged conversation on technology, culture, and consciousness. Together they explore the evolution of electric vehicles, the rise of empowered battery systems, and the hidden dynamics shaping the world of machines.

 But this conversation doesn’t stay in the realm of circuitry. Chris Paine believes in Love, he was part of the original Burning Man organization, and isn't interested just in tech—but in creating a more alive, creative, ecological civilization. We’re at the crossroads of technology and the human heart. For the curious, the conscious, the creatively awake.
