William Henry: The Rise of Augmented Humans & The End of Us!

In this podcast episode, investigative mythologist William Henry discusses his evolving perspective on AI and transhumanism, shifting from a warning against technological augmentation to an acknowledgment that humanity has always been transhuman, citing ancient examples like eyeglasses and mystical traditions. He explores the connection between ancient spiritual concepts—such as the Egyptian light body, the biblical archons, and the esoteric "throne of Christ"—and modern technological developments like digital avatars and neural implants. Henry argues that spiritual people must engage with AI to guide its development, suggesting that technology may ultimately help humanity awaken to its true nature as light beings. He also touches on topics like the simulation theory, fallen angels, and the psychedelic origins of early Christianity, emphasizing that ascension is an ancient, ongoing process that requires focusing on the divine spark within.
