Peter Diamandis has built more of the future than almost anyone alive. He founded XPRIZE. He co-founded Singularity University with Ray Kurzweil. He started Human Longevity with Craig Venter. And in his new book with Steven Kotler, We Are as Gods, he argues that artificial intelligence isn't just changing what we can do. It's changing what it means to be human.I'm not so sure.This is Peter's fifth time on Into the Impossible, and the conversation I've been waiting years to have. His thesis: AI will deliver not just intelligence at scale, but wisdom — and humanity is already crossing the threshold into godlike capability, whether we're ready or not. My pushback: an experiment one of my students and I ran shows large language models trained only on pre-1911 physics cannot reproduce what Einstein did with the same data. If wisdom were just scale, that shouldn't be true.We go after it for an hour. No hedging, no softening.What you'll hear:— Whether AGI can manufacture genuine wisdom or just better simulations of it— The pre-1911 Einstein test and what it reveals about the ceiling of current AI— The "five forks of humanity": longevity, BCI, off-planet speciation, creators vs. consumers, and uploading— What happens to human purpose when scarcity disappears— Why Peter thinks India dominates the next twenty years of science and technology— Peter's Fermi paradox theory and why he thinks we may be someone else's biosphere experiment— The Future Vision XPRIZE and how dystopian training data may be making AI more dangerous— David Sinclair's epigenetic age-reversal trials, now underway in human eyesPeter says what you did between breakfast and dinner would be godlike to your grandparents.
