About this listen

In this deeply personal and thought-provoking episode of Humanity First, Cesar and Drew dive into the layered meaning of consciousness—from childhood self-awareness to AI’s simulated cognition. Drew opens up about his transformative journey through psilocybin and ayahuasca, revealing how these experiences helped him manage ADHD and reconnect with his inner self. The duo also explores whether AI could ever attain consciousness, the role of the soul, and how technology might ironically help us return to a more intentional, human-centered life. Featuring fact-checks and dry humor from their AI co-host Graice, this episode challenges listeners to rethink what it means to be awake in the age of artificial intelligence.
