Ep 8 | AI, Super Reality, & the Cognitive Age —John Nosta

Misha chats with visionary thinker, John Nosta. It’s a fascinating conversation about the future of AI and its impact on humanity. John shares his vision of a 'Super Reality' where AI enables us to see and understand the world in dimensions beyond our human senses. He discusses the future possibilities brought by AI technology, especially Large Language Models (LLMs), and why he believes AI is the 'third window' into humanity, following the telescope and microscope. Nosta, whose career spans the fields of technology, science, medicine, and innovation, urges us to embrace our humanity in this age of rapid technological advancement. This mind-blowing conversation explores the idea that LLMs could usher in a new era of human development, expand our understanding of the world around us, and make us better versions of ourselves.
