15 to 20 % of our total electricity in the world is a linked to device use and the servers that underpins it all. Extra time on line and and scrolling ends up being more coal fired aservers around the planet, which have inter species, intergenerational impacts as well. That applies to so many things. Ah, that's a microcosm for a lot of aspects of our current world and our aspirations.
On this episode, we meet with cofounder of the Earth Species Project, cofounder of the Center for Humane Technology, and cohost of the podcast Your Undivided Attention, Aza Raskin.
Raskin gives us a general overview of what artificial intelligence is, how it’s about to become more deeply embedded in our lives, and how he and his team plan to use AI as a Rosetta Stone to translate the languages of other species to - hopefully - expand human consciousness, empathy, and awareness of the other beings we share this planet with.
