Mind and Brain in the Face of Artificial Intelligence

In engl. Sprache, via Videokonferenz

Our species is desperately suffering. Despite extraordinary advances in science, technology, and medicine, humans ceaselessly harm one another and our natural world. Somehow, we seem uniquely unsuited to thrive in the very environment that we’ve created. Our brains have simply not kept pace with the rapid transformations to the environment that we introduced, notably the ubiquity of information technology. This will only become more complicated as we find ourselves immersed in convincing virtual realities guided by powerful artificial intelligences. We need to level up our minds to better live with one another and the rest of nature, as well as to effectively address the many crises that threaten our existence.

Dr. Gazzaley will share his perspective that all organisms engage in reception-expression cycles with their environment, but humans uniquely have access to a larger breadth of cyclical exchange. A path towards a healthier future with others and the natural world may be achieved by learning how to engage higher cycles of reception and expression (i.e., awareness-intention and empathy-compassion cycles). Thoughtful and consistent engagement in certain experiences, like meditation and nature immersion, facilitate more frequent access to higher levels, which support more meaningful and impactful lives by dissolving the delusion of separation between us and the rest of nature, while simultaneously supporting our species’ long-term survival.
