Alex Tsakiris on Consciousness, AI, and Redefining Truth

"You probably spend so much of your time overcoming that first objection, like, 'Don't tell me that guy's out for my job.' But the process of educating and switching the narrative to what it really is—a gift—is something people can’t even realize in terms of the true potential for greater humanness."

-Alex Tsakiris

This week on AI and The Future of Work, we’re joined by a thought-provoking guest, Alex Tsakiris, best known as the founder and host of Skeptiko.com. Skeptiko has become a widely popular podcast, attracting millions of downloads with its deep dive into the intersection of science and spirituality. Alex’s work as an author, entrepreneur, and proud challenger of conventional AI dogma has established him as a major voice in debates on consciousness and reality.

  • AI’s Influence on Consciousness: The episode explores how AI is reshaping our understanding of consciousness—and why Alex remains skeptical of mainstream AI perspectives.

  • Truth and Transparency in AI: Does truth matter as much as transparency in AI ethics? Alex brings this question into focus as we discuss the importance of balancing ethical considerations with innovation.

  • Turing’s Legacy: How Alan Turing’s ideas on AI consciousness and human-machine relationships still fuel the debate today.

  • AI for Employee Well-being: Drawing on real-world applications, we discuss how AI is being used to foster safe, productive workplaces that focus on well-being and reduce friction.
