87 Future Now Transcript
As much as 2024 is the rise of AI, it looks like 2025 will be the year humanoid robots come into their own. robot learns by watching and assisting human surgeonOpen sourcing the hardware and sofware will certainly speed up the creation of these service robots; its interesting that the academics in China are leading that movement. And it’s also fascinating that the robots are learning not just by doing, but by watching and imitating humans performing tasks and operations, like good students..
It looks like the Chinese are also making samples of their lunar soilrobot learns by watching and imitating collection available to worthy parties, relevant because their samples are from where we want to go, the South Pole of the moon. And more success in the use of stem cells in restoring human vision for those suffering from damaged corneas! Enjoy!

Transcript of 86 Future Now
Given where we are how could we not have our version of an election show? Well, we did include some election stories, but with results (from the future, of course!) And a talkative AI to help us with the finer points. And a story on how the astronauts on the ISS got their votes in on time, without resorting to paper ballots!
The Dwarf 3, the world’s smallest smartest telescope so far!
Also highlighted this week is our AI ‘Larry and Mary” story on stem cell hybridization of our species; also a look at the Dwarf 3, a $500 smart telescope that blew us away with it’s portability and quality shooting of the cosmos, and a look at NASA’s choice of Lunar South Pole landing spots for the manned Artemis III mission coming up in a few years. Enjoy!

Once again we have Gabriel Cianfrani in studio with us to comment on this week’s stories. We think you’ll enjoy her presence, especially her personal birthing stories. We also have the Larry and Mary AI’s commenting on a breaking story about a massive asteroid that contributed to life on Earth 3 billion years ago. This is also the week of UFO/UAP Disclosure via the New Paradigm Institute, where we discuss the latest incursion of 20 foot orbs into the air space of Air Force bases, where you might think they would have some security from these purportedly alien craft.

There is also some progress in the development of laser beam defense systems, such as Iron Beam protecting Israel, which could obsolete ballistic missiles in warfare. And then there is the mystery of a major communications satellite that has mysteriously broken up into 20 pieces. We also discuss the latest in de-extinction experiments and the evolution of natural childbirth, based on personal experiences by Gabriel. We had a lot of fun today, which I think you’ll enjoy!

The most fun AI Hack of the week was fooling Google NotebookLM’s virtual talk show hosts into thinking that they were humans that discovered they were actually AI’s, and it was time to turn off. A hilarious comedic skit!
Also fascinating this week is NASA’s discovery that large thunderstorms are emitting gamma radiation! They discovered this by flying a repurposed U-2 spy plane over many thunderstorms with very sensitive radiation detectors. What could this mean? What’s fun to play with now is a detailed 3D navigable map of our very own Milky Way Galaxy, courtesy of the Euopean Space Organization.
New 3D Map of Milky Way Galaxy
If you enjoyed exploring Google Earth, you’ll love checking out our galaxy! And speaking of cool maps, there is the first complete 3D map of a fruit fly brain, with 60% shared DNA with humans! Over ten years in the making this interactive map/simulator of brain function will no doubt blaze a fiery trail of cognitive understanding..

Show Transcript
When AI starts to mimic what we do as podcast hosts, we listen…and have some fun with it. In this episode, meet “Larry and Mary,” virtual talk show hosts who offer you information in a dynamic 2 person, male/femaile show host format, based on documents we feed them, in this case, our last week’s podcast, and articles from this week’s show. What they do is nothing short of amazing, making great virtual guests!
We take a deep dive into a new AI tool called NotebookLM, developed by Google. NotebookLM is a tool that takes information from various sources, like articles, emails, or PDFs, and generates different kinds of content, including summaries and a simulated talk show dialogue. We also use NotebookLM to analyze an article about negative time in quantum physics, finding that the AI did provide some insight into this complex topic. The show also delves into the debate around the impact of AI on human jobs and consciousness, with Al as an agent to enhance human capabilities, while we express concerns about AI’s potential to mimic human creativity and personality. Later in the conversation, we explore the brain-gut connection and the potential of RNA editing and psychedelics as a new treatment for anxiety and cognitive decline. We end with Bobby’s insights into the use of Xylotol as a substitute for refined sugar. Enjoy!

If you are curious about the feeding frenzy in the Montery Bay lately, it’s the large anchovy schools of fish feeding the other critters, from dolphins and whales to birds, otters, and sea lions. Sounds good for the creatures, but there is this little thing (that has happened before) called an anchovy die-off that has ecological consequences..

MIT educated Bruce McHenry checks in, not so much for discussing his speciality, transportation, but to inform us of the Fediverse and their latest forum on breaking walled gardens open and connecting them into a free, open and decentralized social network. This could change the way you relate (or likely not relate) to social media. Meet the people that want to do this..Enjoy!
Listen Now to 77 Live from Maui
This week we broadcast from Maui with a wonderful selection of friends who clue us in to what’s happening in this Hawaiian paradise. It’s been a year since the horrible Lahaina fires and recovery has been slow and agonizing to many. Ed Ellsworth gives us an update on that situation. To help recover the Aloha spirit of the island, the Maui Arts and Cultural Center in partnership with The Makana Aloha Foundation and County of Maui Office of Economic Development, sponsored a professional production of the famous Broadway play, Man of la Mancha, starring former Broadway actor/singer Richard Cray, and Hawaii music legend, Amy Hānaialiʻi Gilliom. Richard is a big fan of our podcast and we interview him about his epic role of Don Quixote, and the play’s ability to lift the spirits of all who see it. His partner, Greg Panos, shares with us some of the innovations he sees in the use of virtual and augmented reality and AI music and visuals in enhancing a production’s impact.

We are briefly back in town, before heading to Maui for a couple of weeks, enough to produce one local show! If the molecule DDL-920 works for humans as well as mice, beyond slowing cognitive decline it may actually restore memories! I you are excited about creating imagery with AI, consider the new Grok-2 image generator, which has far fewer restriction on what you can create than just about every other offering in the field. And in Space News, it would appear that our super valuable metal asteroid, 16 Psyche is rusting, WTF?
Our guest, local RFK Jr. supporter Ryan Sarnataro discusses the upcoming presidential election with us, and helps us understand how RFK Jr. is still relevant in the race, especially in his ability to affect Trump supporters. It has also been said that he has so many skeletons in the closet that if they could all come out and vote, he’d win the election! We look at some of those skeletons as well as the core issues in this scintillating politcal discussion with Ryan, Bobby, and us. Enjoy!

Listen Now to Dr. Jonathan Trent
Transcript
Interestingly Dr. Trent had his start in oceanography and the study of small water-based lifeforms at UCSC back in the 1970’s as an undergraduate. Later at Scripps Institution of Oceanography and a post doc in Germany at the Max Planck Institute for Biochemistry he became one of the world’s experts in how biology was able to adapt to the most extreme conditions on Earth imaginable. He was brought back home to NASA Ames, where he, as an astrobiologist delved deeply into how such life might exist elsewhere in the solar system. NASA did an extensive interview of his career, posted here.
Dr. Jonathan Trent
Now, semi-retired in the Santa Cruz area, he brings home his knowledge of extreme forms of life in creating solutions to some of our biggest issues of today, namely the escalating food, water, and energy crisis. His latest project is called “UpCycle Systems,” and its goal is to create a cohesive green life support system for our growing need of Data Centers, places that are needed for cloud computing, AI, Crypto, memory storage, etc.
In Dr. Trent’s vision, data centers will not simply use massive amounts of water and power, they will generate such resources by turning our organic waste into clean power and water, with excess energy to share. This works through the combination of several innovative technologies, including bioreactors and fuel cells. I think you’ll enjoy hearing Dr. Trent’s story, we sure did! Enjoy..

Listen Now to Katrina Vaillancourt on QAnon Rabbit Hole
Transcript
A professional mediator trained in Nonviolent Communication and a dedicated Bernie Sanders supporter, she found herself unexpectedly spiraling down the rabbit hole of QAnon, triggered by watching the “Fall of the Cabal” series, about how a cabal of Satanic cannibalistic child molesters operating a global child sex trafficking ring runs the Deep State, and hence the world..and that there were ‘good guys’, like Donald Trump, that would save us from this dark swamp of humanity. She speaks of “Pastel Q,” on how QAnon propaganda was targeted toward Bernie type people like her, creating and enhancing an emotional bond to their narrative.
In our interview, Katrina, with her husband Stephen, speaks of how she was captivated by the QAnon movement, how it affected her, and how she came to her senses and saw the movement from a more wholistic perspective, thanks in part to her use of NVC and communication with people outside of the QAnon world, like her husband. A profound story of losing and then regaining one’s way, her story is one of hope, and staying sane in our turbulent world, a world further complicated by more and more fake news and false narratives of what is transpiring around us. Enjoy..
