Welcome to the Atomic Soul Podcast where we explore the very things driving humanity forward. With Jepson Taylor as our trusted guide, we will discover where modern technological innovation meets human nature and explore how the two are shaping the future. This isn’t your average “AI is taking over our civilization” show - it’s something much more rare that’s sure to make you reevaluate your perspective on controversial topics. Each week we’ll hear from the world’s most interesting people, like corporate giant execs and experienced ayahuasca shamans. You can also expect to learn more about the therapeutic effects of psychedelics from those who administer and those who partake. It’s at this very intersection of tech and the brain where we expand our consciousness.

“How many people in August 2022 thought ‘Hmm, I think in November Chat GPT is gonna launch’? It shifted the world. On January 2020, how many people were like ‘Hmm, I think a global pandemic’s gonna hit.’? It shifted the world. I think that you’re gonna set yourself up to fail if you don’t have a mindset for change, and change isn’t a bad thing, but it has such a negative connotation.” 47:15

“Think of it this way, if you think about optimization and especially when you deal with a multi-objective optimization, never, in the real world, have an absolute maximum optimum. You will always have a scenario where you optimize for one thing and you sacrifice giving your underlying objectives.” 18:30

22 AGO. 2023 · Today Jepson sits down with Erik Boduch, the CEO of Revcast, Founder of 24 and Up, and co-founder of Once and Always Pendo to discuss startups and various aspects that go into them such as the importance of blissful ignorance and why that is necessary to get a startup going.

8 AGO. 2023 · In this episode Jepson talks to Romain Fouache who is the CRO of Dataiku and who comes from a technical background. The cost of failure is going down and the ability to identify the failures beforehand is rapidly increasing, which is going to save companies so much more time in analyzing their data. “How do you give people the ability to do many things while feeling confident in the fact that the things that are done are the right things?” Romain gives some tips on the middle ground companies should be shooting for when trying to give people autonomy, but at the same time establish enough boundaries so that things don’t get out of hand.

“I think the exciting thing there is the cost of failure, so if it takes me weeks and I’m working for you, if I come back next week and I say it didn’t work, OK? But if I come back in a year and a half on one project and say it didn’t work, and you’ve paid me for a year and a half, that’s a very different comparison. That’s something I’m very excited about is the cost of failure of a bad idea is quickly going to zero.” 6:24

“If you think of all discovery as just art and it’s just this giant jigsaw puzzle with the X that you were trying to solve, then maybe that’s what it is. It’s like solving a jigsaw, but solving a jigsaw presumes that you sort of know what you’re trying to get to and you have an intuitive, or some sort of higher sense of the outcome. The question is, does AI have that awareness or that sense of an outcome? Where does that sense come from? They say it comes from intuition, from something else. People who are spiritual will say it’s your higher self, you’re connected to something in the Universe, it depends on whether you’re purely Darwinian, spiritual, or somewhere in the middle.” 37:24
4 JUL. 2023 · Today Jepson talks to a good friend of his, Scott Paul, who has done a lot of great things and created various businesses, his first being a drone business in 2008 after he realized how useful these would be in a time when helicopters were more often used, but very costly.

“It’s never on my mind to ‘Oh I gotta go to work’ or ‘I gotta put in hours for this person.’ and it hasn’t been for 12 years, and that gives me a little bit of freedom to ask ‘What do I want to achieve? What do I want to do? Work on? Accomplish?’ I will not ever give that up. I will be out here in a TP zenned out before I ever go back. I will keep that time freedom ‘til my dying day.” 7:26

“When I talk to, say for example, law enforcement personnel, I use different analogies and different language than if I am talking to aviators and using different analogies than I would do if I’m talking to financial people, or physicians. There’s a different language, there’s a different cadence to it, but it has to have meaning for them and it has to be real for them. It’s the same stuff, it’s just speaking a different language and I think that’s how you engage people.” 26:30

Couldn’t find her. We got one clip, and in the end some smart person on the team said they would look for athletes she competed against and see if there’s footage of her. We found 76 different spellings of her name.” 57:46

13 JUN. 2023 · In this episode, Jepson interviews Briana Cavion, who describes herself as a student of life and focuses much of her work on supporting individuals who are interested in initiating a spiritual journey who want to understand the relationship between this finite moment and our infinite selves. Her focus is to help people who have reached certain levels of success that are seen as success in the eyes of the corporate, nationalist, modern environment, but still feel a vast sense of emptiness that they haven’t been able to negotiate or understand. “Your life, once you’ve initiated this spiritual path, will always be hungry for something deeper, and no amount of external failure or success will fill that hunger…all beings are one being and our joy is found when we are working for the highest good for all.”

“Most the time I get people who the 3 year old, who never got attention from their father, is still trying to get attention by working 80 hour weeks. What if we revamped your schedule, delegated these 6 tasks, reduced your work week down to 60 hours, which is still a ridiculous amount of time, but reduced it down so that you weren’t on the brink of a breakdown, so you could actually get some sleep. Most execs that I know need to sleep more.” 10:36
