Is the Internet alive. Speaking with Jay Samit

Mon 7:00am 12 Mar 2018
Podcast Audio



With as many as 7 Billion people contributing to the global knowledge, processes and pooled intelligence via the Internet, we are reasoned to ponder "Is the Internet alive?". After all, the individual cells that make up our body are alive, but we tend to collectively view our own bodies and our consciousness as "alive". Have we created a super being of which we are all part in the same way as the "cells" make up our body?

Thus this deep conversation with @Jay Samit about the form and future of the reality that we are jointly creating.
