In this episode of the Redefining Society podcast, hosts Marco Ciappelli and Bruce Y Lee consider the future implications of cutting-edge technologies, asking whether we will soon identify as silicon, carbon, cells, or even digital entities.

They ponder how technology can help us redefine our existence, highlighting how advancements can blur the lines between reality and the digital world. For instance, the potential of marrying Artificial Intelligence, as already observed in some parts of the world, is discussed.

The discourse then shifts to the future of agriculture and farming technologies. They express concerns over the depletion of fertile lands and the increase in food allergies worldwide, but find hope in the potential of technology to address these challenges. Bruce discusses a workshop event he is part of that will bring experts together to discuss the future of agriculture technologies.

The show concludes with Bruce discussing a science communications event where he will be having a Q&A with Dr. Francis Collins, former director of the National Institutes of Health, about making science more interesting and accessible. He emphasizes the need for science to be taught in a more engaging way, much like storytelling, to ignite curiosity and passion.
