Will AI bring us a world of abundance or Cyberpunk? With Dr. Waku

In this mind-blowing episode of The Mind Blowers Podcast, we sit down with Dr. Waku, a leading authority in AI development and cybersecurity, to explore how artificial intelligence is rapidly reshaping the world as we know it.

We tackle some of the most pressing and provocative questions of our time:

• Will AI lead us into a cyberpunk dystopia or a world of abundance and automation?
• Is AI just a tool predicting the next word — or is it on the path to godlike intelligence?
• How will the coming automation cliff in the late 2020s and early 2030s transform jobs, society, and daily life?
• Will people abandon physical reality to dive into virtual worlds, choosing AI friends and even romantic companions over human connection?

Dr. Waku brings deep insight into the pace of technological change, why VR and simulation addiction may become the norm, and how the lines between artificial and human relationships are already starting to blur.

Whether you’re a tech enthusiast, futurist, policymaker, or just curious about what’s coming next — this episode will challenge your assumptions and open your eyes to what the near future could look like.
