#327 Gregg Braden x Robert Edward Grant – Are Humans the Technology We’ve Been Trying to Build?

In this landmark interview, Emilio Ortiz brings together Gregg Braden and Robert Edward Grant for a rare conversation about one of the defining questions of our time: what is humanity becoming, and who gets to decide? Together they explore humanity’s forgotten past, consciousness, ancient wisdom, disclosure, non-human intelligence, simulation theory, and how different perspectives may reveal part of a larger truth. Robert shares his experiences with extraterrestrial intelligence and his belief that mathematics may be a universal language, while Gregg explores how disclosure could reshape our understanding of human history and place in the cosmos.✦ Join Emilio's Private Community – The Deep Dive Membership | ⁠https://iamemilioortiz.com/the-deep-dive/⁠At the heart of the interview is a discussion around AI, human sovereignty, silicon technology, biology, & 2030. Gregg argues that humans possess biological capacities technology is only beginning to imitate, while Robert rejects transhumanism and proposes that AI may function as a temporary mirror that helps humanity rediscover intuition. They examine implants, carbon versus silicon, the human heart, DNA, morphogenetic fields, ancient texts, AI and disclosure, and Gregg’s view that humanity may be approaching the end of a cosmic cycle. Ultimately, Emilio Gregg and Robert arrive at a hopeful convergence: the future is not simply happening to us, but something we create through love, compassion, sovereignty, creativity, and remembering what it means to be human.___________________PODCAST CHAPTERS00:00 – Gregg Braden x Robert Grant Intro01:11 - What Is Humanity Being Asked to Understand Right Now?20:36 - AI Is Changing What It Means to Be Human26:51 - Disclosure Could Force Humanity to Rewrite Its History29:16 - The Catholic Church, Extraterrestrial Life & Simulation Theory33:59 - Robert’s Extraterrestrial Experiences Since Childhood36:46 - Arcturians, Divinity & the Spiritual Nature of the Universe41:35 - Did Humanity Just Create Its Own Golem With AI?48:45 - Are Humans the Technology We’ve Been Trying to Build?52:23 - Robert: “I Am Not a Transhumanist”57:09 - Could AI Ever Become Truly Conscious?01:04:16 - Dolores Cannon’s Split Worlds, AI & Humanity’s Choice01:11:59 - The Choice Between Human Sovereignty & Transhumanism01:20:55 - Do Galaxies Correspond to Elements in the Periodic Table?01:26:13 - Carbon vs. Silicon: Two Very Different Forms of Intelligence01:30:01 - Did Future Humans Come Back to Warn Us About AI?01:38:13 - The Sacred Geometry Hidden Inside Human DNA01:39:15 - Evidence for Multi-Strand Human DNA?01:45:31 - We Are Already Building the New World01:51:30 - The Questions They Want to Ask Each Other Next01:52:35 - What Is the “New Human”?01:54:05 - Becoming the Best Version of Ourselves___________________Guest: Gregg Braden | Author of "Pure Human" & World Renowned Speaker✦ Website | https://greggbraden.com/✦ Gregg's Live Events | https://greggbraden.com/events/✦ Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/Gregg.BradenGuest: Robert Edward Grant, Polymath ✦ Website | https://robertedwardgrant.com/ ✦ Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/robertedwardgrant/✦ Sign Up Orion Messenger App | https://orionarchitect.io/ Host: Emilio Ortiz✦ IG | https://www.instagram.com/iamemilioortiz/✦ Subscribe to Channel | https://www.youtube.com/EmilioOrtizSpecial Offerings to Support the Show:✦ Make a One-Time or Recurring Donation on PayPal 👉 https://paypal.me/iamemilioortiz?country.x=US&locale.x=en_US___________________© 2026 Emilio Ortiz.
