TRANSCRIPT OF THIS BRIDGES BULLETIN EPISODE….

In this Life Force Energy coaching commentary, I want to discuss artificial intelligence and your emotional intelligence.

I think this is very important because we're seeing the rise of AI now in many ways. Chat, GPT, Grok on Twitter, and there's many, many of them out there.

We're able to write with ai, we're able to create art and videos, images. Some AI is very, very good and it's very hard to distinguish between what's real and what isn't.

This is one of the biggest challenges of this time in history….

Discerning the truth.

It used to be that people rarely lied because they didn't want to be caught in a lie because then their integrity would be questioned.

That used to be very important.

Now, that's not the way it is at all. I'm in my early sixties. So, I've seen a few generations of American society and how it's devolved.

We're not as happy or as healthy or as integral as we used to be.

When I was young, you used to be able to do a business deal on a handshake. My parents' generation did that. Now, nobody does that.

You'd have to know somebody very, very well, and even if you do, you're going to probably have a lot of signed contracts involved.

The Rise of Tech.

With the rise of technology, we've been allowed to know more, faster than ever before.

So, certain things have become exposed.

There's no longer mystery behind famous entertainers or prominent politicians; not like there used to be.

Technology and the information age has helped us determine what's going on underneath the surface. Then we keep advancing and the technology gets more sophisticated.

So, how do you determine what is false?

What is artificial intelligence?

And what is the actual truth or as close to it as you can get?

How do you use your emotional intelligence to decipher artificial intelligence?

The first step is stepping back, being neutral.

Don't examine something from a position of prejudice.

Meaning if you like someone, you're giving them the benefit of the doubt or making excuses for them.

Or if you really don't like somebody, you jump on the judgment train because you just don't like them.

If you start from a point of neutrality, like you just don't know what's going on; what are they actually saying?

Does it make sense from a logical point of view?

Know Thyself

However, if you don't know yourself very well, if you haven't tested your own instincts, if you'd rather believe a lie, artificial intelligence will probably override your emotional intelligence every single time.

At least be honest with yourself.

Many things are not comfortable to know.

How comfortable are you with being uncomfortable about what is real and true?

If what you know of someone is what you see of them in TV, movies, or on social media or at work or at school or down the block, you don't really know them.

You just know the face they present.

So, to raise your emotional intelligence in the age of artificial intelligence, it's critical to ask yourself, how badly do you want to know the real truth?

How willing are you to sit in neutrality and wait until there's some real facts that emerge?

So, I'll leave it there.

I hope that's given you something to consider.

Thank you very much for listening, and I wish you a very sensual day.
