Soren has spent decades at the intersection of mindfulness, technology, and human development. He advises leaders at OpenAI, Google, and top wellness companies, and he leads global conversations around AI and consciousness.

You’ll gain practical tools for brain optimization, functional medicine, and biohacking strategies that sharpen cognitive health, reinforce emotional stability, and unlock peak human performance in a digital-first reality. From supplements and nootropics to neuroplasticity techniques, Dave and Soren show you how to protect your biology as AI accelerates beyond human speed.
They break down how AI and human health intersect, explain why you need emotional strength to face the future, and offer guidance for raising kids in a world ruled by code.

| 0:00.0 | 2027 will be the year of the robots and eventually the robots are coming and they'll have access to all different kinds of powers. |
| 0:06.6 | I do think that there'll be a reckoning at some point between the AI and the humans. |
| 0:10.6 | What's the reckoning going to look like? |
| 0:11.8 | The reckoning is how do you convince something that is more intelligent and doesn't really need you to really serve the needs of the entity that's the less intelligent. |
| 0:24.0 | Soren Gordimer is the founder of Wisdom 2.0. |
| 0:27.0 | Through his work, he brings together leaders from tech, wellness, and social change to foster |
| 0:31.3 | conversations about living with greater awareness in the digital age. |
| 0:34.9 | Given the history of technologies, pretty much all of them get used by governments or |
| 0:39.5 | powerful people to control people with less power. |
| 0:41.9 | Is AI going to go down that path? |
| 0:44.9 | You're listening to The Human Upgrade with Dave Asprey. |
| 0:50.8 | Is humanity even ready for the tools we're building? |
| 0:54.5 | I think they're ready for the tools you're building. I don't know if they're ready for the tools that other people are building. |
| 1:00.0 | You know, I think AI is coming and it's here, and it's ready for us. The question is, is humanity ready for AI? |
| 1:07.7 | And what I tell people is there's no doubt in my mind that AI is going to get cooler, |
| 1:11.1 | faster, nifty, and advance beyond our wildest dreams. The real question is whether humanity will |
| 1:15.5 | advance along with it. Will we become a more conscious culture or will become a more like |
| 1:20.0 | informed, knowledgeable, depressed, lonely culture? And so my kind of passion is to explore |
| 1:26.6 | how we actually enhance humanity in the age of AI. |
| 1:29.8 | Human enhancement is another word for biohacking, right? Not necessarily replacing your arm with a rocket launcher, but if you're into that, whatever. But just how do we take full advantage of the hardware and software that we already have? Because there's a lot it can do that we haven't really figured out. |
| 1:47.7 | And certainly altered states' work are a part of it. |
| 1:50.6 | I've asked AI some really esoteric stuff, like unusual lineage, ancient knowledge, |
