Hello,

In this week’s edition, I emphasize the need to have faith, and further, to take a leap of faith. Then, I discuss skepticism, belief, prayer, and the afterlife with YouTuber and podcaster Alex O’Connor. From the archives, I give an answer as to my general sense of where we are moving with AI — and what is ahead.

Advice

Take The Leap Of Faith

You must have faith to do anything — because you cannot do anything unless you have faith in it. Maybe you have faith in your nine to five routine, and you think it is the best there is. That is faith because you might be run over by a bus tomorrow. Who the hell knows what is going to happen? You are going to put your faith somewhere.

Then the question is, where should you put your faith? One answer to that is security or hypothetical security. But that seems to me to be stupid because there is no security. So if there is no security, then where do you put your faith?

You put your faith in what beckons. Art, beauty, justice, and truth — these eternal verities — beckon to people. The path of heroism beckons. These things call, and that is the burning bush. You have to put your faith in something because you do not know everything. So you have to take a leap.

Requiem For Rex Murphy: A Tribute To Newfoundland

For me, going to Newfoundland, I witnessed an overwhelming experience of beauty to see the past alive and preserved and so beautifully done; I have been thinking about that. As there are more and more people on the planet and as the weight of the present and the future grows ever greater, the past becomes increasingly valuable, increasingly invaluable. Then there is a revivification that is associated with it.

How AI Is Reshaping Society

While in Ontario during one of my tour stops, I was asked about my position on AI, and my general sense of what it will mean for humanities over the next five years. I believe AI gives you all the more reason to get on your adventure and get ahead of what’s coming — because things are changing now. While I foresee potential negative outcomes and issues we will have to contend with, I also believe positive, promising outcomes are on the horizon.
