As a big fan of Jonathan's work (including three of my favorite non-fiction books), it was an absolute honor to explore Jonathan's thoughts on how social media caused a psychological paradigm shift in society.

I talked with @StevenEParton, of Singularity University, about how social media pulled us through the singularity, in a really bad way. I try out some new metaphors, to explain why everything changed so suddenly around 2014-2016.

11 years ago today I launched a publishing company in Portland to promote thought-provoking ideas. While the company no longer publishes books, it has become the podcast channel through which I get to interview some of most influential thinkers alive today. What a journey!

My interview with professor @robchavez explores what I'd consider one of the most important interdisciplinary fields of study for our times: Computational Social Neuroscience. Great insights for those curious about the current/future state of the field.

A new EEG microdisplay for #neurosurgery conforms to the brain and employs colorful light patterns to visualize brain activity in large animals, potentially providing a more reliable method for surgeons to map and avoid functional brain tissue. @ScienceTM scim.ag/70C

As much as I think AI holds profound potential for good, I still can't escape the feeling that our social institutions and emotional intelligence as a culture isn't ready for that much power.

The danger is that if we invest too much in developing Al and too little in developing human consciousness, the very sophisticated artificial intelligence of computers might only serve to empower the natural stupidity of humans.

Be wary of any leader who emphasizes a “them” as the core problem. True leadership presents inspiration and solutions, they don’t simply channel your hatred.

The conversation dives deeply into themes from my book "The Singularity Principles" - including the factors that could make a negative singularity more likely, and some previous examples of how groups of humans transcended the pressures of polarisation youtube.com/watch?v=YmEcRxW_…

In real conversations, speakers who frequently spout anger, contempt, insults, and obscenity are shunned. On Twitter, they are amplified. Twitter is not a public conversation, it’s a public coliseum. @elonmusk, please rethink the social incentives.

A great short from @Liv_Boeree who discussed some similar ideas with me on Singularity Radio last year: open.spotify.com/episode/4V0…

Twitter is full of straw-man arguments that enrage and divide us.
Luckily, scientists have just discovered a groundbreaking cure! 👇

Check out my recent interview for the Singularity University podcast. Had a blast talking with host @StevenEParton because we not only discuss the ideas in my book The Romance of Reality, but their implications for society and a sustainable future. youtu.be/TOd5dCHKZbQ

We need to stop picking our ideology and political party over our neighbors, peers, and society.

I've been having lots of conversations today about how to handle misinformation on social media and it has me remembering that time I was fortunate enough to discuss such ideas on @duncantrussell's podcast.

As a twitter addict, I’m pro any move that makes the platform less addictive and distracting.
IMO it’s time for an algorithmic overhaul we can take back control of our own consciousness and spend more time in the real world.
