Dechen Ellen McSweeney joins me to discuss her recently published article that draws contrast with some of the views I've taken on AI in previous episodes of this podcast. We discuss whether humans can have relationships with AI, how AI "knows" us, and the ethical implications of this emerging technology, including how we can be in right relationship with it.

This is the first in an ongoing series of dialogues with Metamodern Sourcekeepers: those who are in deep devotion with the vow of their being.

Jordan Myska Allen joins me to share about his new initiative, UpTrust, an organization dedicated to civilizational alignment and well-being. "We do this through better internet, through better dialogue, through systemic nudges that change the incentive landscape to bring out the best of humanity rather than the current systems which optimize for attention via nervous system hijacks, clickbait, and naively promoting the content that gets the most interaction."
My dear friend, Victoria Savostianova, joins me to explore what life is like for her as a Ukrainian and for me as an American during times of existential change happening in our nations. I experienced this as a beautiful dialogue that weaves together our unique contexts, how we're relating to life during these times, and what we're learning around showing up fully for What Is. Please be sure to check out Victoria's beautiful and powerful writings.

Stephen Reid is a community creator, technologist, transformational coach and facilitator & co-founder of Futurecraft Residencies. He currently lives in Stockholm, Sweden with his partner Laura Gottlieb.
I call Stephen my "Metamodern doppelgänger" in the sense that we have so many overlapping visions, backgrounds, passions, friends and capacities for mapmaking and weaving nodes within the broader Liminal Web scene.
We jammed together on our various projects and the community weaving we've been up to, which brought us both a lot of eros and joy, which we hope you feel, too. We also touched on a potential in-person convergence for community weavers to share and network their wisdom, potentially created a book, technology app and documentary film in the process.
We'd love to hear what comes up for you in this dialogue and how you'd like to weave in your magic! Stephen can be reached at stephen@stephenreid.net.

Dana and I had an emergent conversation (or Satsang as he called it) where we explored a number of topics including visions quests, Wayfinding, our time in Ukraine, the power of eros, and many other delicious inquiries which arose from the pulse of our mutual aliveness.
I hope you enjoy the rich territory we explored as much as I did!
