Multi.Life conversations

For centuries, humanity has dreamed of a long—or better yet, eternal—life. Will technology help us get closer to this dream? What would such a life look like? Is the key biohacking, human-machine hybrids, or perhaps something else entirely? And finally, how can we take care of our health today by leveraging the latest medical advancements and AI technology? In the second part of this conversation, Artur Kurasiński’s guests—molecular biologist Dr. Łukasz Sobkowiak and science communicators Ola and Piotr Stanisławscy, creators of the Crazy Nauka blog—discuss how to live longer and better in the latest episode of 404: Well-being Not Found.

Should we look for the secret to longevity in a pharmacy, in apps, or perhaps… in an evening spent dancing with friends? What would longevity actually look like in practice? And is it truly within our reach? In the first part of Artur Kurasiński’s podcast 404: Well-being Not Found, guests Dr. Łukasz Sobkowiak, a molecular biologist, and Ola and Piotr Stanisławscy, science communicators and creators of the blog Crazy Nauka, answer these questions and many more.

Reading, writing, memorizing, and perhaps even… thinking—are we at risk of slowly "outsourcing" all these skills to increasingly advanced technologies? And if so, what comes next? How can we protect ourselves from losing fundamental competencies? Or perhaps we can let some of them go without regret, gaining new ones in their place? We are asking all these questions today, feeling that while change is inevitable, its direction is not necessarily clear. In the next episode of our series, The Supportive Company, I will discuss development in the age of AI, the risks of deskilling, and the technological revolution with Dr. hab. Bartosz Żukowski, professor at the University of Lodz, a philosopher, cognitive scientist, and researcher of the human mind.

Microlearning, blended learning, gamification techniques, AI tools, new technologies, and even pop culture observation—today, anyone looking to develop themselves or their team has a powerful arsenal of resources at their disposal. What exactly do these involve, and how do they work?

Could routine actually be the key to growth? After all, the world bombards us with stories of geniuses who create in bursts of intuition or inspiration, and companies that manage to constantly reinvent themselves in times of change.

Is it possible that everything you need to support your mental health is right at your fingertips, in an app, available 24/7? Sounds too good to be true, right? As you might expect, the reality is much more complicated.

Will AI soon replace your therapist? Or is it a fast track to disaster? Artur Kurasiński discusses whether and how technology can support well-being and mental health with psychiatrist Andrzej Silczuk and Dr. Paweł Szczesny, a specialist in bioinformatics and the psychology of artificial intelligence systems. 

Information about healthy eating is at our fingertips today – yet we often still feel lost. Choosing what, how, and when to eat can be more difficult than ever. This is where AI technology and apps come to the rescue.
