Matthew Griffin on AI, Innovation & The Future of Human Potential
In our latest episode of The Rise of Humanness Podcast, Matthew Griffin, renowned futurist and CEO of the 311 Institute, takes us on a mind-blowing, earth-shattering, thrilling ride through AI, the future of work, and the expansion of human intelligence.
So buckle up— yes, soon AI will build and launch entire businesses on its own? Your personal AI assistant will evolve from a chatbot to a network of hyper-intelligent digital agents, working in tandem to revolutionize your industry?
But wait that's just scratching the surface... Griffin introduces Liquid AI, a radical departure from traditional computing. Instead of relying on solid-state chips, this bio-inspired AI is built using fluid-based neural networks, ionic computing, and even biological computing systems.
Imagine Liquid Neural Networks – AI models that flow and adapt like human synapses, creating self-evolving intelligence far beyond today’s rigid models. Chemical & Ionic AI – Computers powered by molecular reactions, unlocking new AI-powered materials, medicines, and even living AI assistants. DNA & Meta Computers – The fusion of biological intelligence with AI, making it possible to store vast amounts of data in tiny, organic structures—far more efficient than silicon-based chips.
Where we are now! 2025: The Future of AI: Agentic Intelligence & The Next Leap
AI isn’t just an automation tool anymore—it’s agentic, which means it can do tasks without you 24/7.?That’s a game-changer. Chris, Mike and Matthew unpack Agentic AI, a life, work and culture-changing evolution of AI that can:
? Delegate tasks to other AI agents, creating an autonomous workforce
? Build products and services without human intervention
? Navigate complex decisions at breakneck speed
? Even create it's own "synthetic" knowledge
Deepseek and The Truth Dilemma: Who Controls the AI Narrative
?? We live in an age of information warfare, where AI is as much a weapon as it is a tool. Griffin warns that different AI systems, trained on different datasets, will produce conflicting truths. What happens when AI-generated in China, ala Deepseek, is trained on“facts” politics or finance that have a bias. For instance, democracy probabaly isn’t favored by Deepsek. How can this impact your personal decisions?
?? Example: Ask ChatGPT about Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI), and it might tell you DEI boosts business profits. Ask Elon Musk’s XAI the same question, and you might get the opposite answer. So, whose truth do you trust?
?? As AI personalizes information, we risk living in custom-built reality bubbles, shaped by algorithms instead of objective facts. The solution? Radical critical thinking and a relentless pursuit of diverse perspectives.
Leadership in the Age of AI: The New Human Superpowers
Leaders are being bombarded with AI solutions, but Griffin reveals a harsh reality: most CEOs don’t fully understand where AI’s data comes from, how secure AI agents are, or how easily they can be manipulated.
?? The Future-Ready Leader Needs: ?? Curiosity – Stay ahead of the curve by continuously learning ?? Exponential Thinking – AI evolves 10x faster than you think ?? Resilience – The future is coming, ready or not ?? Adaptability – Success belongs to those who pivot before disruption hits ?? Discernment – AI-generated content isn’t always real—leaders must verify and validate
AI & Human Expansion: Welcome to the Age of Hybrid Intelligence
We’re not just living with AI—we’re merging with it. Griffin talks about the next evolutionary step for humanity, where AI enhances our intelligence, accelerates our learning, and even helps us multitask at superhuman levels.
?? Example: Neuralink’s brain-machine interfaces are already proving that the human brain can handle multiple simultaneous cognitive tasks, pushing the boundaries of what we thought possible. The question is: Are we ready to embrace this transformation?
What You Can Do Right Now to Stay Ahead
1?? Adopt an a Future Ready, Antifragile, Exponential Mindset – AI is moving faster than we can predict. Anticipate and position yourself now.
2?? Know your purpose in the Age of AI and Learn to Work with AI – Remember, those who master AI will replace those who don’t.
3?? Develop Critical Thinking – Don’t just accept AI-generated “truths.” Question. Analyze. Cross-check. Understand how AI thinks! Know it's pro's and cons. And when human discernment rises above AI generated output.
