AI & Technology in Human Potential
At Abundance 360, Mo Gawdat inspired a vision of how AI can bridge the gap in human connections, deepening conversations and fostering empathy in ways we never thought possible.
Empathy is the essence of humanity—it’s what drives us to connect, care, and create meaningful solutions. In a tech-driven world, combining innovation with empathy ensures that the advancements we make improve lives, not just profits.
AI is neither a magic fix for all our problems nor a looming threat to humanity—it’s a powerful tool, and its true impact will depend on how we choose to harness it for the greater good.

Is Technology Our Greatest Ally—or a Frenemy to Human Longevity? By Jasmina Denner, Ph.D. We live in an extraordinary era—where technology holds the promise of longer, healthier, and more purpose-driven lives. From AI-driven diagnostics to genomic testing and precision health apps, we’re not just tracking steps—we’re engineering health trajectories. But here’s the paradox at the heart of modern longevity: The same tools designed to extend our lives may also be undermining our humanity.
Living Forward, by Design Human-Directed Evolution and the Rise of Longevity Intelligence By Jasmina Denner, Ph.D. There’s a quiet revolution happening—not in labs or boardrooms, but in the minds of those asking a deceptively simple question: What if the next phase of human evolution is one we choose? Futurist Tom Lombardo calls this emerging moment purposeful evolution—a conscious shift from passive survival to intelligent self-authorship. We are no longer simply shaped by biology or circumstance. We now have the tools, agency, and responsibility to shape ourselves. This is the foundation of what I call Human-Directed Evolution—and it’s the beating heart of my work on Longevity Intelligence™.
A silent collapse is unfolding inside America’s universities—and it’s not just an academic trend. It’s a wake-up call. According to The Atlantic (June 2025), computer science enrollments are falling by 20–25% at several top institutions. After years of explosive growth, the CS boom is slowing fast. Why? Because AI is writing the code now.
How Blockchain + AI Will Revolutionize Longevity—and Put Your Health Data Back in Your Hands Let’s start with the fear: You’ve lived a life, tracked your steps, logged your meals, taken your meds, uploaded your labs—and now your data is working against you. Your insurance rates rise. Your coverage is questioned. Your personal history—deeply human and deeply contextual—is treated like a pricing algorithm. You’re not alone. A recent survey by the American Medical Association found that 75% of patients are concerned about their health data being sold or misused. And they’re right to worry: medical data breaches have doubled in the last 5 years【source: HIPAA Journal, 2024】. But here’s the deeper problem: We live in the most data-rich moment in human history—and most of us don’t own a byte of it
Digital Health Demands a New Kind of Intelligence In an era where AI can personalize your meal plan, influencers recommend daily biohacks, and longevity advice spreads at the speed of a swipe, one thing has never been more urgent: your ability to think clearly and skeptically. Welcome to the age of digital health overload—a landscape where access to information is no longer the issue. It’s the quality of that information—and more importantly, your ability to evaluate it—that defines your trajectory. A pivotal 2021 study by Norman & Skinner, published in the Journal of Medical Internet Research, introduced a critical insight: “eHealth literacy—the ability to find, understand, and critically evaluate digital health information—is an essential skill for the 21st century.” In other words: Being healthy in the digital age isn’t just about data. It’s about discernment.
