#68 - Thought Provoking Discussions (with Richard Thieme)

Today we speak with Richard Thieme, a man with a reputation for stretching your mind with his insights, who has spoken at 25 consecutive DEFCONs as well as keynoted BlackHat 1 and 2.  In a far-ranging discussion, we cover the concept of what it's like to be a heretic (hint:  it's one step beyond being a visionary), the thought that the singularity has already arrived, Pierre Teilhard de Chardin's noosphere, disinformation and cyber war, ethical decision-making in automated systems, and why there is convincing evidence we are not alone in this universe.    References:https://thiemeworks.com/
