Have you heard of the Congolese Dandies and their expensive fashionable attire (suits) whilst living in ghettos/slums? In this episode of 'Meanderings' Juan and I discuss: the difference between being highly focused vs getting into a flow state of non-thinking, gym etiquette and if it is permissible to use two machines for supersetting, wasting precious resources on random crap in Sapeur culture/potlatches, why you might be reading something created by artificial intelligence, Instagram models/influencers who are actually computer generated and whether AI will ever be able to write a better book than humans can.As always, we hope you enjoy, Mere Mortals out!Timeline:0:00 - Intro & Mere Mortal Moments5:43 - The importance of consciousness vs unconsciousness14:40 - In the gym can you take two machines at a time?18:30 - The Congolese Dandies20:41 - Potlatches22:30 - Maslow's hierarchy of needs25:20 - AI generated content32:38 - Artificial Intelligence profiles on Instagram35:02 - Can AI create a book that is better than our classics?40:30 - The gift of knowledge: Mere MortalsAbout Mere Mortals:Striving for excellence through life's lessons.
