• Is AI Sparking a New Renaissance? 19 Keys on Tech, Cognition & the Future

  In this thought-provoking **Market Mondays clip**, Rashad Bilal sits down with futurist 19 Keys to explore the transformative power of technology in today’s world. The conversation dives deep into how artificial intelligence and quantum computing are shifting not only the economy but also the very way we think and live.19 Keys shares his compelling thesis on the current state of technology: imagine a world without the internet—it’s almost impossible now. Soon, AI will be just as integrated into our lives. From boosting GDP as the workforce changes, to democratizing computer science around the globe, AI’s reach is undeniable. But that power comes with both opportunities and dangers.The discussion moves into the concept of “cognitive surplus”—as AI takes over mundane tasks, it frees up human minds for deeper, creative thinking and innovation. 19 Keys argues we’re entering a new cognitive renaissance era, where the ability to process, synthesize, and defend our thoughts is the new gold. In a landscape flooded with distractions and manipulation, especially in communities facing stress and limited resources, cognitive security becomes just as important as technological literacy.But it’s not all utopia: 19 Keys also acknowledges AI’s double-edged nature. While it can spur empowerment and renaissance, it’s also a tool for psychological warfare—able to influence beliefs and manipulate vulnerable populations. For those able to harness both technology and mental discipline, however, a new age of enlightenment is on the horizon.Whether you see AI as a liberator or a threat, this clip offers crucial insights for anyone wanting to prepare for the rapidly changing future. Are you ready to embrace the cognitive renaissance?*Timestamps:* (If you’d like detailed timestamps, let us know in the comments!)*Key Takeaways:* How AI is redefining what it means to be human The risks of cognitive manipulation in the era of psychological warfare Why deep thinking and mental resilience are becoming our most valuable assets The real opportunities for renaissance and innovation, especially within marginalized communitiesDon’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more powerful insights from the Market Mondays team!*#MarketMondays #19Keys #RashadBilal #ArtificialIntelligence #CognitiveRenaissance #FutureOfTech #TechTalk #FinancialFreedom #BlackExcellence #AIRevolution*Our Sponsors:* Check out PNC Bank: https://www.pnc.comSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/marketmondays/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
