<p>Dr Suzanne Gildert, Roboticist & Quantum Physicist, is the CEO-founder of Nirvanic Consciousness Technologies, a quantum-AI technology company innovating “Conscious AI” for improved AI decision-making. She holds a Ph.D. in experimental quantum physics from the University of Birmingham in the UK. Suzanne is a prolific technology inventor with dozens of US patents in quantum computing and AI robotics. She previously co-founded Sanctuary AI — building human-like intelligence in General Purpose Robots — and Kindred AI, developing industrial-AI robotics. The acquisition of Kindred AI by Ocado in 2020 for one third of a billion dollars ($339 million CAD) was the third-largest exit for a robotics company in Canadian history. Suzanne has deep expertise in quantum computing from her time at D-Wave where she ported AI algorithms to D-Wave’s quantum annealing hardware. She created quantum algorithms for D-Wave customers including NASA and Lockheed Martin, developed quantum machine learning algorithms for training neural networks and classifiers, and pioneered an online cloud service for quantum application developers.TIMESTAMPS:(0:00) - Introduction (1:26) - Consciousness & AI(7:34) - Defining Consciousness(9:32) - Quantum Consciousness (Faggin, Hameroff, Penrose etc.)(13:50) - Teleological Panprotopsychism(17:26) - Defining Free Will(23:40) - Misunderstanding Non-Materialist Theories(27:30) - From New Age Atheism to Scientific Spirituality/Free Thinking(33:20) - Quantum Computers, Robotics & AI(37:31) - How to Test Conscious AI?(41:42) - The Turing Test & the Edge of Knowledge (LLMs)(49:10) - Decoding or Encoding Consciousness?(53:05) - Agent Boundaries in Robotics (Substrate Independence)(57:10) - Scientific Testing of Quantum Consciousness(1:00:10) - Ethics of Quantum AI (Suffering)(1:03:57) - Techno-Spirituality & Mental Health(1:12:00) - Philosophy of Nirvanic Consciousness Technologies(1:15:10) - Idealism vs Panpsychism(1:22:00) - Quantum Consciousness & Occam&#39;s Razor(1:24:00) - Nirvanic Consciousness Technologies(1:31:10) - What to Expect (TSCC 2025)(1:34:25) - ConclusionEPISODE LINKS:- Suzanne&#39;s Website: https://www.suzannegildert.com- Suzanne&#39;s X: https://x.com/suzannegildert- Suzanne&#39;s LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/suzannegildert- Nirvanic Consciousness Technologies: https://www.nirvanic.ai- Stuart Hameroff: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6iCzHwL2EY0- Federico Faggin: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MSn4t6fP_dc- Bernardo Kastrup 1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XaSIs2fp7V8- Bernardo Kastrup 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=57Oguwg7omc- Johnjoe McFadden: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0kldDplYKac- Johnjoe McFadden Lecture 1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C6FCgjOZdAM- Johnjoe McFadden Lecture 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HdNz2lHz3E0CONNECT:- Website: https://tevinnaidu.com - Podcast: https://creators.spotify.com/pod/show/mindbodysolution- YouTube: https://youtube.com/mindbodysolution- Twitter: https://twitter.com/drtevinnaidu- Facebook: https://facebook.com/drtevinnaidu - Instagram: https://instagram.com/drtevinnaidu- LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/drtevinnaidu=============================Disclaimer: The information provided on this channel is for educational purposes only.
