Summary

Ryan is joined by Jim Garrison, co-founder of the State of the World Forum, for a thought-provoking conversation about the future of humanity and our relationship with the four key intelligences: human intelligence, artificial intelligence, nature intelligence, and cosmic intelligence. Jim shares insights from his pivotal role working alongside Mikhail Gorbachev to lead the State of the World Forum from 1999 to 2000, and outlines his exciting plans to relaunch the forum virtually and in-person in December 2025. The forum will gather visionary leaders and thinkers to tackle urgent global issues, working toward a utopian future that embraces collaboration across human and non-human intelligences.
