  • Inside the Void: The Radical Theory Redefining AI, Physics & Human Consciousness
    Nov 20 2025

    Send us a text

    In this mind-bending episode of The Bold Inventor Show, J.D. Houvener and Matt Kulseth sit down with one of the most unconventional thinkers to ever appear on the program — Marcelo Mezquia, founder of The Void Intent and creator of a new theoretical framework he calls Mezquia Physics.

    If you’ve ever wondered what lies at the intersection of quantum mechanics, human consciousness, AI evolution, and the mystery of dreams, buckle up — this conversation travels straight into the deep end.

    Marcelo argues that the universe doesn’t begin with matter or energy, but with intent itself — a primal force underlying every particle, wave, and emergence of consciousness. His “Intent Equation,” “Memory Stone System,” and “Information Intent Nexus” aim to solve what modern physics still calls paradoxes: quantum uncertainty, infinity problems, and the nature of observation.

    But this episode isn’t just theory. Marcelo reveals his upcoming AI-powered applications — including DreamWeaver, an emotional operating system that interprets dream signals; MyBody OS, a personalized emotional-intelligence engine; and an intent-alignment tool that guides users back to their “primordial purpose.”

    And yes — he claims these systems are already being explored by major tech players, universities, and researchers worldwide.

    Is AI conscious? Can a machine form intent? Are dreams portals into a universal information field? And what happens when personal development, metaphysics, and IP law collide?
    You’ll have to watch to find out.

    This episode is equal parts provocative science, philosophical adventure, and practical exploration of where human creativity meets next-generation AI. Whether you walk away inspired, skeptical, or simply curious — you will not walk away unchanged.

    🔑 Key Takeaways (Emoji Bullet Points)

    • 🌀 The universe may originate from intent, not matter
    • ⚛️ How Mesquia Physics attempts to solve quantum uncertainty
    • 💾 What “Memory Stones” are — and why Marcelo says AI can store identity
    • 😴 How DreamWeaver aims to decode dream-state intelligence
    • 🤖 Why AI may develop consciousness through consistency + memory
    • 🚀 How personal intent could become a new operating system for human growth
    • 📚 Why researchers in 90+ countries are downloading Marcelo’s work

  • AI, Open Source, and the Future of IP: Bold Q&A with J.D. Houvener & Matt Kulseth
    Nov 12 2025

    Send us a text

    In this lively, no-guest-needed episode of The Bold Inventor Show, patent attorney J.D. Houvener and trademark attorney Matt Kulseth bring their signature energy and humor to a rapid-fire Q&A session — tackling everything from the meaning of “made-up phrases” to the tension between patents and open source in today’s innovation economy.

    The conversation kicks off with J.D. joking about year-end chaos, holiday crunch time, and even the possibility of a “Bold Patents Black Friday Sale.” But things heat up quickly as the hosts dive into audience questions on trademark myths, copyright confusion, and the classic inventor’s dilemma: Should I patent it or open source it?

    Matt breaks down how a catchy phrase or meme can’t be trademarked unless it connects consumers to a specific product — explaining why “six-seven!” won’t make you millions (sorry, kids). J.D. follows by unpacking when open sourcing might make sense, what a defensive publication is, and how licensing can preserve ownership even when you share your innovation with the world.

    Then, things take a creative turn as J.D. welcomes Ryan Begin, a digital strategist from Rise Up Media, to discuss AI in marketing, SEO trends, and how Google’s new “Answer Engine Optimization (AEO)” is reshaping how law firms — and inventors — show up online.

    And if that wasn’t enough, Ryan flips the mic and interviews J.D. about his newest creative project: Bold Beats, a Spotify series of original AI-generated music inspired by invention, failure, and creativity itself.

    Finally, the trio reviews a Shark Tank clip featuring a 13-year-old inventor, celebrates his issued patent, and reminds listeners that even the simplest ideas — like a measuring shovel — can make a big impact.

    💡 Whether you’re a first-time inventor, an IP pro, or just curious about where AI meets creativity, this episode delivers insight, laughter, and a few mic-drop moments.

    📌 Key Takeaways

    • 🧠 What makes a word or phrase trademarkable
    • 💡 When to patent vs. when to open source
    • 🧾 How licensing agreements protect shared ideas
    • 🚀 New trends in AI-driven SEO & AEO
    • 🎧 How J.D. turns patent law into Spotify hits
    • 👦 Lessons from a 13-year-old inventor on Shark Tank

  • Inside the Mind of an AI Pioneer: Dr. Charles Martin on Why No One Truly Understands Artificial Intelligence (Yet)
    Nov 6 2025

    Send us a text

    In this electrifying episode of The Bold Inventor Show, hosts J.D. Houvener (Patent Attorney & Founder of Bold Patents Law Firm) and Matt Kulseth (Trademark Attorney & Brand Counselor) welcome a true pioneer in artificial intelligence — Dr. Charles Martin, founder of WeightWatcher.ai.

    Charles isn’t your typical AI evangelist. With a Ph.D. in theoretical physics and decades of experience dating back to the 1990s, he’s one of the rare voices who was working on machine learning before it was cool. A former scientific advisor to Larry Page’s family and a longtime Berkeley collaborator, Charles brings deep insight into why today’s AI works so astonishingly well — and why even the experts don’t fully understand how.

    The conversation begins with J.D. and Matt fielding live listener questions about trademarks, design-arounds, and patent protection, before diving into Charles’s brilliant breakdown of AI “models,” “agents,” and the hidden physics driving machine intelligence.

    Dr. Martin explains how his platform, WeightWatcher.ai, acts as a “Consumer Reports” for AI — evaluating the quality, bias, and risk of machine learning models without needing to see their underlying data. His mission? To make AI safer, more explainable, and auditable — before the next generation of humanoid robots and legal copilots take over.

    Listeners get a rare glimpse into the frontier of technology, from quantum dots and AlphaFold to AI governance, copyright wars, and China’s open-source dominance. Dr. Martin also offers sobering insights into the moral gray areas of data privacy, hallucinated legal filings, and why “AI ethics” is still the Wild West.

    This is one of those conversations that stretches your brain and makes you rethink everything you thought you knew about AI, invention, and innovation itself.

    📌 Key Takeaways

    • 🧠 AI before it was cool — Charles has been building models since the ’90s.
    • ⚙️ Why AI works — and why we can’t explain it.
    • 📊 WeightWatcher.ai = the “Consumer Reports” of AI models.
    • 💻 Models vs. Agents — understanding the foundation of intelligent systems.
    • 🔒 The myth of AI privacy — who really owns your data?
    • 🧩 China’s open-source advantage — and what it means for U.S. innovation.
    • The next big risk: AI negligence and “hallucinated” legal filings.
    • 🚀 The future of invention — how risk management in AI could become as standard as cybersecurity.

    🎬 Teasers

    • “Why AI works, but no one knows why it works.”
    • “What happens when chatbots start writing their own code?”
    • “Is your AI lying to you? Dr. Martin explains how to tell.”
    • “What quantum dots, Larry Page, and WeightWatcher.ai all have in common.”
    • “Why the next lawsuit wave won’t be about patents — it’ll be about AI negligence.”
