Interesting perspective! I definitely see what you're saying. I think it's interesting though that at the same time we've seen HUGE advances in technology we also seem to be seeing an increased openness/ interest in spirituality, energy healing, and similar things among many people. I am always shocked by how many people I wouldn't expect to be open to things like that actually are when we start talking. I think it's easier for people to suspend disbelief in a world where technology is so...unbelievable.
AI will be able to do so much (some good, some bad) but I struggle to imagine a world where AI takes over energy work and spiritual guidance. I could be wrong but I doubt AI will be able to connect with people who have passed like mediums, balance energy or provide healing like Reiki masters and acupuncturists, or give insight and guidance like intuitives and other deeply-connected spiritual guides.
Joy Juliet, This is such an interesting perspective, as well! Yes, the urge for things and experiences that AI can't give us seems to grow in direct opposition to how much technology has take over our lives. We crave human touch, contact, compassion and authentic communication, and these are things - as well as the spiritual dimensions of our lives - that AI can never replicate. (I don't think I would even want AI Reiki!) Thank you for bringing this viewpoint in!

Perfectly expressed, much better than any AI could do.
