Have I Been Corrupted by the System Too? | Russell Brand

Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” talks to Russell Brand about the challenges of maintaining a public image while protecting family privacy; his concerns over exposing too much of his personal life, especially his children, on social media; his changing attitudes towards fame and the toxicity of celebrity culture; the recent challenges his family faced, including his son's heart surgery, which gave him a new perspective on life; the effect of sexual assault allegations on him and his family; the humbling experience of being publicly attacked and the subsequent deepening of his Christian faith; the importance of humility and rejecting self-centeredness; how his family and spirituality have helped him see the emptiness in fame; how he strives to live a life of service and deeper personal fulfillment; the convergence of advanced technology, particularly AI; the important moral questions about AI that no one seems to be asking; the philosophical and ethical implications of AI; the potential for it to replicate human consciousness and the broader societal shift from spiritual to technological progress; the need for a spiritual awakening to counterbalance the materialistic and controlling nature of technological advancements; and much more.
