Hour 4: Global Digital Terror | 10-01-2025
Manage episode 509485596 series 2932000
Lionel and his listeners tackle complex philosophy and looming global threats. The conversation heats up immediately with an intense debate about inductive vs. deductive reasoning and whether human logic must stem from religious axioms or a Creator. Lionel dives into the serious dangers of AI—which some callers believe will lead to the destruction of us all, echoing the rise of Skynet in The Terminator. This fear ties into the critical concept of the locus of control—the fundamental human need to control one's own destiny, which is threatened by aging, violation, and technology.
