Visualized Audio - MWGIC-EP-00046: Crossroads - AI, 5G, And Automation - Heaven Or Hell?

Humanity is at a crossroads that few recognize - and its not environmentalism. There is a convergence of a few key technological innovations coming in the next few years, beginning right now. It's up to us to recognize it, and decide which fork of the road the future walks down. Understanding it in the first place is key. It's laid out here, and this is what we need to do...

AWEA: Okla. wind generating capacity jumped nearly 13% in 2017
Oklahoma was one of four states to source at least 30% of its electricity needs from wind in 2017, during which it increased its installed wind capacity 850 megawatts, or nearly 13%, according to the American Wind Energy Association. Wind Coalition Oklahoma Director Mark Yates touted the state's impressive wind assets and corresponding ability to attract Fortune 500 companies.

Thoughts on the quantum brain by a long-time friend, Eric James:

"Interesting. There's no doubt that the brain/mind is much more than what it appears to be. Things like imagination and inspiration, instincts and reflexes, conscious and subconscious (& unconscious) awareness, etc... Are great mysteries. I'm glad that this is being explored by scientists, but even if they don't have these answers already, would they be willing to share such knowledge with the general public?

I personally would like to know how consciousness is intertwined with life and death.

What level of unconsciousness results in death?

Or

What level of consciousness is needed for life, and subsequently self awareness?

For someone in a coma or vegetative state, can they be reached subconsciously or are they self aware?
Answers that can be unlocked by the scientists research. But again, I don't think they would release this information fully. But I am hopeful." - My response is in the video.

Video - MWGIC EP-00043: Is The Human Brain Interacting With The Quantum Field Of The Universe?

Scientists are beginning to think that consciousness itself is a quantum effect, and that the human brain is a form of quantum computer. What might that mean given the quantum universe's tendency to entangle things? Let's explore that idea...
