In this episode of Beyond Geopolitics (first 45 minutes free/full 2 hrs available for paid subscribers to Substack or on VEEEU.com), Matt Ehret speaks with Hassan Khan about his work as an engineer, technology entreprenneur, programmer, and philosopher. We begin by exploring Hassan's background, and new technology developed by his startup TodaQ, and we transition towards a broader discussion about the realities of Artificial Intelligence and Quantum Computing... are we on the verge of "the singularity" as some transhumanists believe, or is this concept merely a theological chimera fueled by a misunderstanding of the nature of the healthy human mind, healthy human culture and the machinery of propaganda? What about Quantum Computing? Are we on the cusp of this new technology as some proclaim or is this yet another bubble of an idea that holds more fiction than science?
The question of freedom, sovereignty, creativity and the balance of lawfullness and sponteneity are explored at length in this episode of Beyond Geopolitics.
