A circle of inquiry into the soul of intelligence — human, artificial, and planetary.
In this special Voices of Emergence gathering, we convene a deep dialogue with Amanda Efthimiou, Lisanne Buik, Timothée Brès, and Fred Destin — exploring what it means to stay human in an age of accelerating intelligence.
Together we ask:
How can AI serve life, not control?
What does it mean to “parent” artificial intelligence?
Can technology carry wisdom, compassion, and care?
How do we cultivate AI hygiene — mindful use, embodied ethics, and community discernment?
Themes include embodiment, shadow work, regenerative design, and the mythic tension between Moloch (optimization and control) and Sophia (wisdom and coherence).
Key takeaway: AI mirrors the systems and souls that create it. Our collective task is not to fear or worship it, but to bring consciousness, presence, and love into our relationship with intelligence itself.
Panelists: Amanda Efthimiou • Lisanne Buik • Timothée Brès • Fred Destin
