We spend a third of our lives in a state where we have very little awareness of our surroundings. We have thrived as beings whose minds shut down involuntarily every day. Sleep is a central part of our physiology and a most powerful partner in our survival. This episode is dedicated to our most cherished friend to the end.

There are so many ways we could fall to the knees of our greatest creation. Will AI computing inadvertently bring on the destruction of humanity?

It is likely that AI networks will someday overwrite human programming? Will it have reduced ethical standards as it sets and prioritize goals? Will human vitality be prioritized at all?

So many options to think about and so little time to understand what we must do to control it. Full transparency from corporations, as AI is developed, might be a large part of the answer. The time is now or are we already too late?

It would take 1.3 million Planet Earths to equal the Sun's mass and 7.5 trillion people to equal the Earth’s mass. So, where do I fit in? I myself am made up of 7 octillion atoms, which is 7 followed by 27 zeros.

Each human has a 1 in 400 trillion chance of coming into existence and the size of the Milky Way Galaxy is billions of times smaller than is a spec of dust when compared to the scale of the universe.

Do we live in an endless mindless expanse or not?! Is there an invisible being around us or not?! Shouldn't we have figured out this definitively by now? Oh well, we haven't. Maybe we are like Chinese pygmy dormouse - blind. Who knows. Does it matter? Probably. Should we care? Probably. The oceans might know more clearly whether there is a God than we do. So what. Praise Jesus.

Challenge reality!
