🎙️ Beyond the Invisible: Consciousness, Free Will & the Lie of AI
Ep. 171 with @fedefaggin

Federico Faggin is a physicist, inventor and entrepreneur and a highly spiritual person. He’s famous for developing the silicon gate technology in 1968, and designing the Intel 4004, the first commercial microprocessor. At the peak of that success, in 1990 his materialist worldview broke with a spiritual awakening and launched a 20-year exploration into consciousness. Today he pursues the scientific study of consciousness, unafraid to challenge mainstream scientific dogmas and push the envelope on humankind, our divinity and our relationship with AI and machines. His new book, Beyond the Invisible, is released today. In this conversation, we debunk Yuval Noah Harrari’s claims, explore consciousness, quantum physics and free will, Scientism as a religion, and why Federico believes survival of the fittest is the biggest lie ever told about who we are.

Prison for hosting a podcast? @BitcoinBrains says it’s not far fetched, because the globalist playbook of owning nothing and being happy is already public, with CBDCs and social credit scores as the next steps into your life.

Reunited with two of my favorite friends @Beau_Turner21 & Christine Marie 🧡 If you know & love them, drop a comment and tell us why…!
If you don’t - stop me/them at @btchistoricosv for an introduction to the highest integrity entrepreneurs in this industry, building one of the most impressive, promising companies on the value of abundance - @AbundantMines.

My keynote at @btchistoricosv will focus on building sovereignty for individuals, businesses & nations, on all levels - physical, digital and spiritual.
15 minutes of real life examples, insights and inspiration. See you there! ⚡️🧡

I’ve listened to this talk between @giacomozucco and @JoeNakamoto about El Salvador as bitcoin country.
We have a strong duality tendency as humans: black/white, good/bad, positive/negative, pro/anti… but life is complex, nuanced, and human stories and experiences matter.
Put your judgmental, pre-existing notion aside and try to listen calmly.
El Salvador is not perfect. It’s a nation state. It’s a large complex organism made of many entities and power dynamics. Bukele is not perfect, he’s a bold leader actually transforming a 6.5m people country. The process is never clean and smooth.
Bitcoiners associate a certain perception of brand with El Salvador, but if you actually visit the country, speak to the people, learn the history and the present - you may discover a country in the PROCESS of a low time preference construction, step by step.
Instant wins are unrealistic & unsustainable. Building new healthy foundations on a new collective consciousness that chooses growth and sovereignty over fear, is a long winding process, that’s worth the wait, IMHO.
