• 286 | A Conversation on Artificial Intelligence (AI) & Using It as a Tool for Creativity

  AI is no longer just a buzzword—it’s woven into more aspects of our lives everyday. But is it something to fear, or can it actually help us become more creative, conscious, and connected? In this conversation, we explore AI from both scientific and spiritual angles, looking at its potential as a tool for human evolution while also acknowledging valid concerns about reliability and environmental impact. We ask the bigger questions: How do we make sure technology serves us rather than controls us? And how do we preserve our ability to think critically and honor the divine nature of thought in a world increasingly shaped by machines?We're sharing our honest opinion about using AI thoughtfully and responsibly due to a comment on our episode 284. We explore how we believe that AI can spark creativity instead of stifling it, the importance of balancing technological innovation with environmental responsibility, and why emotional intelligence will matter even more as AI advances. This isn’t about choosing between fear or blind optimism—it’s about finding a perspective that keeps us empowered as humans while embracing the tools that can expand our creativity and consciousness.Referenced in this episode: The Kardashev scale - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kardashev_scale
