Is artificial consciousness possible?  Join CJ in this thought provoking conversation with Barbara Marx Hubbard about the future of robotic and computing technology.  Barbara Marx Hubbard has been called “the voice for conscious evolution…” by Deepak Chopra.  Hear her insights and thoughts about the future of computing technology and the responsibilities software, web,  and robotic developers have in their creations.

**** TRANSCIPT: Abbreviated and edited******

Q: What is consciousness? Consciousness is the source and process of creation.  It's the ground out of which from all is arising.  I think there are two forms of consciousness. There is eternal one and then there is the consciousness force  that does had dynamic direction. Now, supramental consciousness is entering our consciousness so that we are becoming vehicles of the evolutionary consciousness of creation and that is new for the human species particularly in the high technology field where we have new life forms, new intelligences, new bodies, and new potentials vastly greater than our own personal bodies. However to use those technologies, we have to become ever wiser with the supramental intelligence to guide it.

Q: Can robots have consciousness or is this restricted to humans only?  I don't know the answer to that, I have talked to a lot of people about it.  I want to back up a little bit.  There is a reason why we have gained this technology. The first things to ask ourselves is " Where do we want to go with all this power?"  I feel that we are going toward creating a universal humanity both on this earth and the universe beyond and that we will eventually become a cosmic species. In order to travel to these new places we will need more advanced technologies combined with high consciousness. We are the species creating and inventing these new possibilities for life on this earth and potentially beyond the planet.  If we do develop these technologies then its about developing these technologies with an intention of creating co-creators with love.  If we infuse love into high technology. I've been very influenced by the life of Jesus and what occurs to me as he went through his life, and then his crucifixion, and then the resurrection. and came up as a life body and said "you will do the works that I do with greater works" (John 14: 12). What I got from reading the new testament with evolutionary eyes was that Jesus was a great evolutionary and he manifested in the resurrection a new body" and that the new body would have Christ Consciousness.

My intuition is that the robotic and computer intelligence are like the tendrils of our nervous system. I have a thought and it goes through my nervous system and I move a finger, and there is a high level technology involved in the body. If that extended technology is responsive to the highest Supramental consciousness.   We have a chance right now to infuse it with because we are creators of this new technology, right now. It's a very important moment because the humans are the creators of the Suprahumans. We are the creators of a species that will go beyond us in the universe and if we realize that, that is what we are doing. We are co-creating not only for profits and doing stuff better on this earth, but we are charged by Universe itself to co-create a species. This is the next level of the God inheritance, of species created in the image of God and if in the image of God, what does God do. God creates, so we are becoming God-like co-creators with the Divine and our extended capabilities in robots, biotech, and nanotech are extensions of the Divine consciousness of life itself.
