Lionel dives into the ultimate frontier: Digital Immortality. Lionel explores Uare.ai (formerly Eternos), the self-funded platform designed to preserve a person's voice, memories, and unique personality so loved ones can interact with them after death. But as personal AIs learn and potentially become "better than human", how do we regulate a technology that could induce psychotic episodes in the bereaved or be weaponized by voices claiming to be God? Then, Lionel merges the scientific with the spiritual, discussing how Nobel physicists and researchers at the Max Planck Institute suggest consciousness is quantum data stored in a nonphysical field that survives bodily death. Finally, the hour tackles the inevitable: the demise of marriage. When AI figures out love and robots develop the capacity to emulate human emotion down to the capillary bursting, people will choose to marry their digital counterparts—perhaps under an "LLC Marriage" structure. Tune in to understand how reality is being rewritten.
