- AI wordt onze ondergang! - Tut tut, niet zo somber. Waarom denk je dat? - Deepak Chopra de Verschrikkelijke is into AI! 🤓 Deepak Chopra on why he believes artificial intelligence could be a "spiritual guide" | CBS A legend in well-being, Deepak Chopra has been at the intersection of science and spirituality for almost half a century, meeting world-class leaders and celebrities alike and becoming a best-selling author with his dozens of books. Born and raised in New Delhi, India, Chopra moved to the United States in his 20s, beginning his career as an endocrinologist before growing into a prominent figure in the New Age movement who became famous for teaching meditation to household names like Oprah and Michael Jackson. In his 95th book, "Digital Dharma," Chopra explores his beliefs about technology and spirituality — like why he believes artificial intelligence is the key to personal growth. He told "CBS Saturday Morning" that while some people may prefer to focus on the "doomsday scenarios" associated with the technology, he wants to look at the positives. "You can use AI for self-reflection. You can use AI for research as a research assistant, you can use AI as a health coach, both physical and mental, but even more important as a spiritual guide," Chopra, 77, said. "You have access to all the spiritual luminaries of humanity since the dawn of history." https://lnkd.in/eaGEGRTs Meditation can be harmful – and can even make mental health problems worse | The Conversation The first recorded evidence for this, found in India, is over 1,500 years old. The Dharmatrāta Meditation Scripture, written by a community of Buddhists, describes various practices and includes reports of symptoms of depression and anxiety that can occur after meditation. It also details cognitive anomalies associated with episodes of psychosis, dissociation and depersonalisation (when people feel the world is “unreal”). https://lnkd.in/egy7ytY8 #AI #genAI #LLMs #DeepakChopra #fake #spirituality #charlatanerie #xrisk #doomsday #scenario #newage #guru #scammer #swindler
