Pri then shares her developing thesis around spiritual technology, exploring how AI, longevity, space exploration, ancient philosophy, and a renewed interest in the cosmos may push people to look inward. Chris takes the idea further with digital animism, imagining a future where AI gives everyday objects distinct personalities and transforms the failed Internet of Things into the Internet of woo woo. From there, the conversation moves through mahjong, camping, Hans Moravec’s Mind Fire, transhumanism, simulation theory, and the unresolved mystery of consciousness. The crew considers what happens if money disappears, why collecting may become even more important in an age of abundance, and whether digital objects could become a new form of stored value. The episode closes with Coinbase’s awkward CryptoPunk courtship, its possible future as an acquisition target, the open-source AI debate, and why companies facing aggressive competitors need better products rather than protection.
