Latest / Age Defiantly with Mark Young / [Ep 2] Can AI Support Emotional and Spiritual Health? | Dr. Christopher Motley
Transcript
- 0:00Welcome to Performance Driven Living, the podcast where we question everything.
- 0:05We don't tip to around tough topics, we walk right into them, not to provoke, but to
- 0:11get closer to what's real.
- 0:13You might not agree with everything you hear, and that's okay.
- 0:17The show isn't about being right, it's about being real.
- 0:20These conversations are meant to stretch your thinking, challenge assumptions, and spark
- 0:25something deeper.
- 0:26The views shared are those of our guests and may not reflect those of the host or team.
- 0:32And while we dive deep into health, performance, and transformation, this is not medical advice.
- 0:38Talk to your doctor before making changes to your health or lifestyle.
- 0:42Take what lands, leave what doesn't, but whatever you do, don't stop questioning.
- 0:56All right, we are back on the Performance Driven Living podcast.
- 0:59I'm your host, Mark Young, and I am joined here again by my friend, Dr. Chris Motley.
- 1:05Like this guy, you're like becoming a co-host here, I think.
- 1:07You're just in a show and a waltz, I love that.
- 1:12When I landed here, I thought, man, I was like, I know Mark's going to be here, and
- 1:19then I looked on the stories, and he showed up, and the first thing I was telling you
- 1:22is like, it's like, I got a haircut, and it looks phenomenal.
- 1:25I'm just glad to be here.
- 1:27You do.
- 1:28I do.
- 1:29So yeah, that's awesome.
- 1:30And dude, like I'm so glad you reached out, because we're all here at the Dave Aspery
- 1:33Biohacking Conference, and it's like, it's kind of funny, because they say it's kind
- 1:36of like homecoming, like you just walk around, I had to laugh, I was looking for somebody
- 1:40earlier, and it took me like a half hour to walk through the showroom, because like, just
- 1:44walking through was a dozen stops, and a hey, what's up, and hugs, and everything else,
- 1:48and like, it's just, it's so cool to see everybody, right?
- 1:50It's true.
- 1:51I mean, you know, like watching you go through a crowd, it's like, you know, everybody.
- 1:54I know a few people, I get that, but when you go through it, but I'm so, like, grateful
- 1:58when you see friends that come in the house, decently, they're like, like mind andness, and
- 2:03I love it that they're this energy in this one spot, though.
- 2:05There is.
- 2:06And we last night did the inaugural dinner for the Lifelong Well-being Foundation, but what
- 2:12is that about?
- 2:13Nick Zaldestani, you know who Nick is?
- 2:15Nick's been a good friend for years, but he, um, he actually started a nonprofit that
- 2:21is actually working in, and maybe this is a conversation, but he's actually been, um,
- 2:27working with Dave Asperin, Callie Means, and Del Big Tree, and all these big names that
- 2:31we all got together for the dinner last night.
- 2:33Um, but it was a great event, but it was a fundraising dinner that was intentioned, um,
- 2:39to launch Lifelong Well-being, and Lifelong Well-being is actually the foundation that is
- 2:43bringing, I say, it's the on-campus voice for the longevity movement.
- 2:48Wow.
- 2:49And it's bringing our industry, if I can say that, on to college campuses, and getting
- 2:54college, ecology students to develop life skills that are healthy, wilder, and in school,
- 3:01because they're in this, like you're in home and you can start to develop your identity
- 3:05in high school, of course, but it's like you still eat what's in the fridge.
- 3:09That's exactly right.
- 3:10Right.
- 3:11You still live in a, in a probably an EMF toxic environment and so on, because you're
- 3:14subject to whatever your parents are doing, because like when students get out on campus
- 3:18for the first time, it's their first time living out there, it's when they really start
- 3:21developing adult habits.
- 3:23Um, and the entire goal of the organization is to provide that education, to provide that
- 3:27inspiration and that on-campus support so that student ambassadors can actually fire
- 3:33up much like a turning point USA or, or these types of on-campus type things to develop those
- 3:39on-campus programs.
- 3:40So last night was, it was amazing to look around the room, because I want to say there
- 3:44was just under 200 people.
- 3:46He actually bought out Perry Stakehouse here in Austin, and it was Dave Asprey and Candace
- 3:51McDonald and Vani Hari and Jim Quick and, and Callie Means, Dell Big Tree, like it was
- 3:59just the Michael Fisherman's, I mean, it was literally the who's who of the event.
- 4:03Wow.
- 4:04All showing up last night.
- 4:06And it was, it was, it's funny because what I want to say, like looking around the room,
- 4:12if the average person walked in the room, I think they may have recognized a couple
- 4:15people.
- 4:16Yeah.
- 4:17But it's like, it was an all-starved dinner, full of our dinner, like for our industry
- 4:21and in the health and wellness longevity movement, like it was an all-star event.
- 4:25What did, did they, when they go into college campuses, are there, well, studies or percentages
- 4:30they're saying, okay, we know that kids are this sick because they're all like there's
- 4:34certain, let's say, really, like cholesterol, blood sugar levels, and they're seeing a sick
- 4:39pattern, but they know that, like, the maha movement's like, we have to help the, the
- 4:42generation that's that young, I mean, are there, what would be their first steps?
- 4:46Like, I want to know, like, figure, like blood work, your analysis and stuff.
- 4:49So, so I think part of it is they're, so they're looking at eight, and you can look
- 4:52at it online, there's eight dimensions of well-being that they're focused on.
- 4:58So there's spiritual, there's social, there's environmental, there's intellectual, so each
- 5:03of these different dimensions have a different tactic, and the intention behind it is that
- 5:09not only are they trying to get students to live a well-rounded experience, but we're,
- 5:15we're experiencing, I've said this a couple times lately, and that is we're experiencing
- 5:18this tailwind, and we can say it's the Bobby Kennedy maha kind of stuff, like that's helpful,
- 5:24but I was just saying to somebody earlier that, pardon me, that while Bobby and maha and
- 5:29so on have done such a great job of bringing a lot of this stuff to the surface, the reality
- 5:35is as we also are living in a generation where our 20-somethings are, I was saying this
- 5:41earlier, actually, to somebody else, I don't remember even who I was talking to, so when
- 5:45things start coming up a few times, it makes me pay attention.
- 5:47Yes, yes.
- 5:49And the, the one is that, you know, Domo, the new trumpet drink, yeah, okay, yeah, yeah,
- 5:56and I was doing some research with him, and one of the things that I'd mentioned was the fact
- 6:00that the 20-somethings, whatever the gen alpha or whatever the generation is now, that group of
- 6:09people has the lowest level of alcohol consumption in over 70 years, that young people today are just
- 6:15not drinking the way that young people used to drink, like you can see it go up, up, up, up, up,
- 6:21down, and that's literally just decade over decade over decade, and then it just,
- 6:26that takes a plunge since like prohibition almost, like it's a ridiculous number,
- 6:32and then you also see right now a statistic was just released about how the, the greatest surge
- 6:39of church attendance is amongst 20-something-year-old men.
- 6:43What?
- 6:44Young men are going to church at record numbers.
- 6:49You're seeing the big push, what's the big one that Joe Rogan has now been actively attending
- 6:57church on a regular basis, and it was a big story, and obviously you see the outspokens,
- 7:01like the Mark Wahlbergs and everything else, and it was like, so yeah, I'll give Bobby all the
- 7:07Kennedy, or all the Kennedy, all the credit in the world for what he's doing, and Mahas doing
- 7:12an amazing job and stuff, but there's already something else going on, that we're watching
- 7:18a generation starting to become more conscious in it, and I don't even know what I want to say,
- 7:25like what level that even exists at, but like at some level you're watching students seeking
- 7:32spiritual growth. They're not doing the party thing in college the way that it used to be,
- 7:37and it's like that age group is starting to mature, I suppose, at something different, and that's
- 7:44exciting. There would be, because I'm thinking, if something went to the height and you drop,
- 7:48do you think people are in this area, they're trying to create more spiritual awareness?
- 7:52I'm going to stop going into alcohol, and maybe it's disrupting how I perceive reality.
- 7:57Do you think that, I mean, this is the thing, it's like, what would bring such a big change?
- 8:01I don't know. I was saying earlier that it's almost like that, the new revolution is to be
- 8:07counter-revolution, all the college kids drink, so I'm not going to do it. It's almost like the
- 8:12new rebellion is to be healthy, and I think that's actually pretty funny, and I'm wondering if it's
- 8:18like this cycle of life, the 50s generation who were the perfect family values group ended up
- 8:25having the 70s generation, which is all the hippie flower child whatever, and then they ended up
- 8:30having the 90s, which were all the grunge rebels, and it's like, maybe now we're seeing a return,
- 8:37right? We've done the cycle, and it's kind of exciting to see, and I'm sure you've heard of the
- 8:43strong men create good times, good times create weak men, weak men create bad times, and bad times
- 8:49then create strong men. Have you ever heard that? No, not like that. I've heard it.
- 8:57No, that's right. Say it one more time. Okay. It's that good times, what is it?
- 9:03It's a cycle, so it doesn't really matter where you start, but good times create weak men,
- 9:08weak men create bad times, bad times create strong men, and then strong men create good times.
- 9:17That you end up cycling, and I'm wondering if we're just at that cycle right now, which is
- 9:22amazing, because maybe we're at the cycle that we got so weak, that we created a new generation of
- 9:28strong men, and I'm wondering if maybe that's where we are, and that's exciting. Because you see a
- 9:34lot of individuals like, when you say the times create strong men, because there's a lot of
- 9:40individuals that they ever ask, like clients and patients, they come in and they'll say, well,
- 9:44I'm not drinking, and it really, it makes a total point, because I'll ask them why aren't
- 9:49you drinking, and sometimes they'll say, well, I saw my dad drink. They're really like
- 9:54it weakened me. I'm not doing that anymore, so I just choose not to drink. That is a really
- 9:59profound cycle. I've got to remember that. I'll watch this, and it's great. It's very much. It's
- 10:03the greatest generation, right? It's the World War II veterans and stuff, and it's like, and you just
- 10:09that was the greatest generation, and it's like, and I'm wondering if we're back.
- 10:12Maybe we're back in that way. No, Grant, history repeats itself, so who knows, but I mean it's
- 10:17who knows? Maybe we'll move back in that direction. I kind of like it, though. I think that when
- 10:21we look at life in cycles and numbers, when they talk about certain cycles, you'll say like every
- 10:2570 years, or so many years, like bank resets, and credit resets, and like, oh, you know, when they
- 10:30look at these catastrophes, they're like, oh, some people say a new neurology, like we were set
- 10:34for another big catastrophe, and the things happen. That stuff weirds me out, but I'm like,
- 10:40it has just pattern recognition. Yeah, exactly right, pattern recognition. It's seen the pattern
- 10:45and understanding that humans are humans. That's what I love about you, though, because I can see
- 10:49you looking at something like that, and you go, I guarantee he could go. Nailed it. Yeah.
- 10:55That means that you're like, you were like, look at the news, and you're like, like, you're
- 10:58eating your breakfast, you're like, oh, I saw that coming. Yeah, I'm not that guy. I'm not a
- 11:02futurist in that capacity. I'm not that smart, Chris. I have this tendency to be over-analysing
- 11:09more than predicting. That's my problem. I'm just like, you know, that could be better,
- 11:12that could be better, but I love watching patterns, though. I do too. I like to look at patterns.
- 11:19One of the things that you and I love to see is when you look at a pattern, I don't necessarily
- 11:24say I want to predict a pattern in healthcare, but the patterns are so going down. We see the
- 11:30maha movement start to see the pattern. What can we do to make it shift? I don't like to look at
- 11:36a pattern and go, aha, I told you so. I like to look at patterns and go, what can I do to help?
- 11:42Create some shift in it or like create an energy round to make it move. If it's a bad pattern,
- 11:46yes. Yeah. And if it's a good pattern, it's how can we prolong it? Because we know it's
- 11:50eventually going to end. That's the thing, though. It's a cycle. You look at something like,
- 11:54is it going to end? And I'm telling you, I'm with you 100%. I don't want it to happen. I want
- 11:57end, but I'm with you about cycles. Yeah. There's going to be a cycle. And I just got like where we
- 12:01are right now. I actually, I think this movement, I think everything that we're seeing is pushing
- 12:06people in a healthy direction. So when we see that Hall of Fame crowd yesterday, who all
- 12:12descended in the same room, it's, it's just cool to see. Yeah. And of course, planning and around
- 12:17the day, Vasper event didn't hurt because then everybody was in town. But it was just seeing that
- 12:21many people is exciting because we're able to do, it was a think tank. Yeah. Like even the
- 12:30conversations were, how do we deal with college students? Like, what is, what do we do? And it
- 12:34almost was like, Hey, everybody got together, but it wasn't just to socialize. It was getting
- 12:38together to problem solve. Yeah. And that's what actually felt the best out of everything. That's
- 12:43good. I mean, I can see via the beginning of the, I don't try to take away the combo. I'm just saying,
- 12:47like, you know, when you see problems that need to be solved, especially in like in the culture.
- 12:51And that is a great area because, you know, you're seeing kids like, or if K Junior's saying like
- 12:55the kids in elementary and middle school, but they do forget about the kids. And I mean,
- 12:59the college kids can be forgotten. A lot of my families from Korea, and I'm not talking about
- 13:05Korean culture, but one of the things they would see like people in college age back in the day,
- 13:11you know, like you look at, they would say that Japanese children, Japanese college students and
- 13:17Korean students, a lot of them were passing away from high amounts of stress. And they, and this
- 13:22is no knock or the same thing like, but they would die with full stomachs. What they said, they would
- 13:26eat like ramen noodles. And like, I thought it was just a fat. They like, no, they all they did
- 13:32was they'd eat ramen noodles for the car, for the starch, and they'd get a lot of energy to go
- 13:35study. And they're finally, these people were getting sick, you know, like, and they finally
- 13:39noticed that the, that the government was like, we can't have these kids just eating ramen noodles
- 13:42all the time. And hopefully like, they'll see that in our culture too, because you just can't eat
- 13:47food that has empty calorie in it. Yeah, process garbage. Oh, it's, it is sad like what they have.
- 13:52I remember in college, like, I remember the stuff I ate, I couldn't believe I mean, I don't know
- 13:57how I lived. But what we were talking earlier, like with somebody about the, you know, how the
- 14:01freshman 15 was normal. And, and promiscuous sex was normal. And, and, and just drugs and alcohol
- 14:09and where everywhere. And it was like, and it was like, that almost became how you defined the
- 14:13college experience. And you look at movies, like, do you remember the old school movie with Will
- 14:18Farrell? And it's like, there are so many movies from, from generations that almost make that
- 14:25look like it should be the college experience. So that by the time this, the young person gets to
- 14:30college, they've, you know, they've watched so many films that have told them what college life
- 14:36is supposed to look like. And then they go act it out. That's exactly right. Like, it's like,
- 14:40this is what I was told to do. I was told the college was when I drink under 21. And I was told
- 14:44that frat parties were a big deal. And I was told that, you know, this was the deal. And, and it's
- 14:49like, I just look at all of those experiences that, that have happened at college campuses all over
- 14:56the world, particularly here in the US. And we glamorized it to be those years where you just do
- 15:03whatever you want. And it's just hedonism for four years while you're studying. And I think
- 15:10looking at lifelong well-being, it's like the intention behind it is, and I mean, I know I'm
- 15:15selling this foundation here, but it's like the intention behind it is how do we interrupt that
- 15:18pattern and get students to realize that like anxiety levels in colleges are at an all-time
- 15:24high and suicide rates in colleges are at an all-time high. And obesity on college campuses
- 15:29is at an all-time high and dropouts are at an all-time high. And social isolations, particularly
- 15:36post-COVID, all-time high. And you think of how many students are all their classes are online
- 15:41now. And it's like they're not getting the socialization that they need. And the intellectual
- 15:46outputs right now are struggling, particularly because students are now leaning so heavily into AI
- 15:51that they're not even learning anything. They're just getting grades for work that artificial
- 15:55intelligence is produced. And so the reality is is that we're at pandemic level issues on all of
- 16:01these levels. And I think that's where our community really, it's incumbent on us to step in and
- 16:10make those types of interruptions to try to recreate that experience. I mean, with AI taking over,
- 16:17like you say, like a person can't think for themselves because they allow AI to think for them.
- 16:22What would alarm me is like even the kids if they're not that healthy, they turn into that
- 16:26independence. I mean, that's the future. Like, who runs the country? Who runs the world? I think
- 16:31well, AI is just the new mission impossible movie. No, I've heard it was intense, though. It's
- 16:36really good. Is it? It's very good. I saw it last week and it was really good, but it's all about
- 16:40like his mission is to stop AI. And it's kind of crazy because it's one of those movies that it's like,
- 16:47you know, yeah, okay, that could happen. So it's intense, it's really good. A lot of echoes from
- 16:53all the past movies. So that's kind of cool too. But the idea about AI and my belief on the AI
- 16:59thing is like, I think smart people are getting smarter. Yeah. Because smart people are finding out
- 17:04that AI can do some of the lower level things for them while they can go process. Yeah, that's good.
- 17:08That's good. And I believe that not so smart people are getting not so smarter because they're
- 17:14phoning in work. And they don't even know how to recognize when it's good work or bad work.
- 17:20I use AI all the time and I find it is it just multiplies my ability to output.
- 17:27But I'm using it intelligently. I'm not replacing myself. Yeah. And yet I do see people that are
- 17:32using it to just do their work for them. And it's like, but you've lost the ability to critically
- 17:37think. And ask the truth because I, you know, when you look at people like you on social media and
- 17:43they'll like create, and we all, you know, they'll create clips with AI. One of the things that,
- 17:47you know, I know we know like some of the individuals that just crank out so much social media. And
- 17:52one of the things I've heard the last few months is that yes, AI would do this really well,
- 17:56but they need somebody that critically thinks and looks at a clip or something like this actually
- 18:00will not touch them human spirit. This will not affect. And I'm like, really, you know, I'm like,
- 18:04okay, and they say, yes, we, this outperforms what an AI could actually do. And I said, that's the key.
- 18:09Like human spirit. Like you can't touch human spirit. Correct. And that's back to the relational side.
- 18:14Ah, that's true. Yes. It's like we always go back there. You notice that, right?
- 18:19The relation to the side it has been. So I got a question for you because we're talking about AI.
- 18:24We're obviously talking about a hundred things, but you're practicing. I'll say natural path.
- 18:29Right. Like I know you see people in a lot of different areas of things, but you practice
- 18:33naturopathy and really help diagnose. Do you use AI? I wish I did with diagnosis. Now this is
- 18:42what I found. I use all the Chinese medicine, pulse points, tongue, facial features, and some
- 18:49biofeedback with devices. I use myself as like a surrogate. So I hope that doesn't confuse. But AI,
- 18:54I will say this. I've had individuals that have taken their genetic testing and they've taken
- 19:00their gene test and they put it into an AI like chat GPT. I'll have two stories, but really
- 19:06quickly they'll put their genetic testing and they'll ask AI to say what are some of the supplementation
- 19:13that would actually benefit my genetic expression when it deals with anxiety and such. So they do
- 19:19pretty well. The cool thing was functioning now. And then they'll go like should I take cats claw
- 19:24or should I take astralis and they'll go in and ask AI and AI because like the human spirit aspect
- 19:30the relation that we go I don't think with your inability to process this certain type of
- 19:36supplement you shouldn't take this herb and AI will definitely say like you shouldn't take this
- 19:40herb. So they that part of AI like they did on themselves. I had another doc that I knew that he's
- 19:46a basically a board certifies a medical doctor that does a urology and he will take your your
- 19:53analysis and he'll run it through an AI app and they specifically it's a medical AI and it will
- 20:00tell you from your urine levels all the yeast all the mold all the parasites that you got from
- 20:06an analysis from AI just from the set they put so this the thing is it bad to have that in there
- 20:12or is it very beneficial one of my friends started on and the AI app told him which homey
- 20:16path he should take which minerals which medications and you know what his psoriasis started to go away.
- 20:24I had this conversation with you know Alpernia yeah and we were talking about next year's
- 20:30changing life and destiny conference yeah and if it happens great if it doesn't that's called
- 20:34no the conference will happen but yeah I actually told him I said I think the topic next year
- 20:39particularly to draw in more functional practitioners needs to be the use of AI in medicine
- 20:44like because people will fly to hear that conversation because in engaged practitioner can't
- 20:50ignore this no and I think it's I think it's topical that especially by spring of next year
- 20:57there's going to be such an explosion of these types of things and I'm like you know get the
- 21:03function helps get these people in the room like I know several people that are working on medical AI
- 21:07there's a there's an app that I'm working with right now. Her name is Emma Holesdorf and she's
- 21:14amazing now I'll actually give you the URL you can literally have it you hold it up to your face
- 21:21and using facial recognition it will it will it'll tell you your blood pressure
- 21:28it can tell you your heartbeat it can tell you your your HRV levels like it's
- 21:35holding your phone using the camera on your darn phone it will do all of this recognition
- 21:42and it's like what in the holy like it was crazy so we're working with her to actually use it as
- 21:50almost a an online diagnostic tool company but but this idea that like I can hold my phone up to my
- 21:58face and it can tell my blood pressure like that's crazy talk that is crazy but like do you think
- 22:03they'll do it till next year oh it already oh I don't know I'm I'm pushing for it um and but
- 22:08where I was going with that was actually I was on the phone with Al and and I said look I said let's
- 22:13let me give you an example I said I don't know how familiar you are with AI so it's like I went in
- 22:17and I I use the expensive AI's and I'm like so I'm gonna go into deep research mode and I'm gonna
- 22:24invite Dave Aspery and Mark Hyman and Dan Pampa and and Mindy Powell's and I like went through
- 22:31the you know and and I'm gonna invite all of these big name functional practitioners I need you
- 22:35to invite all of these people and I need you to get them to collaborate on a diagnostic plan for
- 22:42this person these are her presenting symptoms bump bump bump bump bump bump bump bump bump this is
- 22:48her health history she's a 46 year old female does not drink does not smoke has two children
- 22:53it's stress at work and just literally just typed in with him on a zoom call like a fake patient
- 23:00profile that you would get out of just a health history nothing crazy as if I never ran a test
- 23:07AI did what it did so on so forth and you know and it doesn't it comes out 15 20 minutes later
- 23:15or something and I get this huge like 20 page medical profile you know based on this symptom
- 23:22blah blah blah blah you know Dan Pampa is actually going to recommend that we work on a metabolic
- 23:28question here so on so forth this could actually because of this and this however this symptom
- 23:33here doesn't necessarily this we need to rule out that like it was so detailed and it was quoting
- 23:40all of the big names because it's going to pull from every single one of their online profiles
- 23:45so it's reading all of their content and everything it already knows about these people
- 23:50and it's phenomenal to me the amount of information that is just sitting there like we live in
- 23:57such a time that there is no reason for anybody not to know anything that's right that's right
- 24:01deep with pulling all their voices so I've heard that you could take like a transcript of like the
- 24:08the medical the doctor's voice put it into the AI it gets their tone it knows what avenue they're
- 24:13going to take like with like how to address like a strip infection or something it puts all their
- 24:19ideas together and says this is what they would normally respond harder present and it'll actually
- 24:23take all of it and it will think as it is as if it is them so it's when I'm doing it like I always
- 24:29pull together who are the people that if I had to put together a dream team who would be in the room
- 24:34on my dream team yeah to have this conversation and I literally invite whoever I want if I'm working
- 24:39on marketing stuff like I invite people whose opinions I respect in marketing if I'm working on
- 24:45longevity like I'll pull and like and literally create collaboration teams and my AI knows me
- 24:52yeah so my AI of course takes all of this kind of stuff and is able to craft it in a way that
- 24:57it actually matches me as well um but it it's unbelievable kind of output it's like these types of
- 25:05diagnostic tools I'm just I'm curious because as a as a functional practitioner if you're not using
- 25:11it do you feel like you're like behind the curve on it and now it's intimidating is it you just
- 25:18don't trust it I would say I wouldn't get to a point where I say I wouldn't trust it I think
- 25:23personally um if you feel like you're behind the curve I I'm always a person that thinks that if
- 25:28you feel like you're behind the curve just catch up forward and catch up and I think that to the
- 25:34reality maybe you know anybody out there's listening could message us and say like maybe I'm not
- 25:38thinking at every angle and but one of the things that we both have seen like if a patient comes in
- 25:45and literally they've been to certain doctors they only have a certain amount of time to be in the
- 25:48room with them for 10 to 50 units I would think it would be who the doctor to like learn how to use
- 25:53it well because literally if you found your blood work a person comes in and you know
- 25:58granted I've been in practice for over 20 something years and there's times when you get tired of
- 26:01some people they're like okay I just need to know this this and this because I have to get the
- 26:03major parts but what if you could learn AI and take that person's blood work take everything that
- 26:09you know have your dream team put it into the i app run it through and say okay I only got five
- 26:13minutes with you but this is what you will need so I was listening what book was I listening to
- 26:20the other day it's it's called good strategy bad strategy I hadn't read it but I've heard about it
- 26:25yeah okay so I finished that book the other day and one of the points that was made by the author
- 26:30which I loved is this idea it's it's a confirmation bias conversation right that like what we believe
- 26:37we find evidence to support what we already believe around by great we we we find what we're
- 26:42looking for yeah um and if something supports my current opinion that I gway that fact heavier than
- 26:49than facts that I actually disagree with me um but one of the things that he discussed and this
- 26:55is something where I think AI is a huge tool that I put in my belt is he actually was discussing
- 27:01another that when people come up with if I were to put a group of people in a room and say here's
- 27:06the problem with x business figure out what's going on and how do we solve the problem
- 27:13um and it's almost what I would call a primacy effect and that is if someone comes up with a
- 27:17first idea yeah that's the one they defend because once your once your brain thinks it's solved
- 27:23a problem it stops looking for solutions oh wow because you think you think about it you like oh
- 27:30yeah that's probably that would work why keep trying to find it's kind of like oh my keys are always
- 27:34in the last place I look for them well yeah if you found them why would you keep looking
- 27:37of course they're in the last place right but but he actually talked about the phenomenon that we
- 27:43actually we love our first answer and then we go to the conference where we're going to go defend
- 27:48our answer and it's like and we and he's talking about collaboration is so important because we go
- 27:53into a room we think we've already solved the problem but we actually just got married to the first
- 27:59solution oh heavens and then we hear other people's ideas and we still prefer our own because we
- 28:05have a problem with objectivity and I was thinking about it because like when I use AI like whether
- 28:11it's me working with a marketing client or or or even writing for that matter it's like I'll be
- 28:17like man I'm stuck in this area like this is what I think it is but let me give you all the information
- 28:24here's what I want these are the people who I want to have opinions on what would this person
- 28:28think of this topic like how would Albert Einstein solve this problem and kind of throw stuff
- 28:33out there because what I'll see is and then give me five possible scenario outcomes wow and then I
- 28:41get all my scenario out and I'm like okay I didn't think about those like usually I'll say like four
- 28:45out of five I've already come up with but I'll even work on it with marketing plans like I'll write
- 28:49the marketing plan how I believe everything should happen and I got a pretty good beat on that
- 28:55stuff like how do I believe it should go to market what do I think and then I will literally ask
- 29:00AI here's my entire plan what did I miss wow what other things are available that I may not have
- 29:06thought of and and sometimes it comes up with stuff and I'm like nah nah nah and I'm like oh
- 29:11all right missed that one and as I relate that to the medical field yes like if you just saw
- 29:18three patients in a row with the same diagnosis and you found out it was the same thing when the
- 29:24fourth person comes in the room do you not just go to what just worked for the last three yes or do
- 29:32you treat the fourth person as an objective and equals one case you can't this is true it's true
- 29:39like when you get you hit an nail in the head is because you get so used to patterns and that's why
- 29:43something is like pattern recognition I'm guilty I'm like well look at something I one of my mentors
- 29:50kind of got on to me a few years ago because I'd hear something you tell me or something I go oh
- 29:56such as such and he's like you're yelling you're pride getting the way you say that he say it's
- 30:02pride and as we tell it and I was like what do you mean he goes even though you see a pattern you
- 30:06you need to investigate it it's not like any equals one you got to investigate and that's what
- 30:11happens like not to veer off on the other side but that's what happened like Steven Gundry was
- 30:15saying he goes one of the things that that hurt us in long run was like antibiotics the point
- 30:20case is that they used to culture and investigate every infection like a boil or assist or an infection
- 30:25and they would find the actual antibody to kill it but now we use broad spectrum by our spectrum
- 30:28to kill it all off and I like investigation went down the drain that's a great point though I mean
- 30:32like finding that one little area that you know I did not think about that and that's what we
- 30:38should use AI4 and I use AI2 to enhance my objectivity I get married to my solution I love my
- 30:47solutions right it's right they're they're birthed from my own creativity and imagination and
- 30:51so I end up having this tendency to as we all do yeah this is what works and a lot of times like
- 30:56I will find myself even talking to a client and saying look this is what we did for this other
- 31:00person and it works tremendously we can do this exact same plan working with you like we know the
- 31:06blueprint you know and then I find myself going okay well that was three years ago yeah like
- 31:12maybe the markets change maybe I need to you know start working with my own you know solutions and
- 31:18questioning my own whatever's and that's when I get into the pattern of you know how do I use
- 31:24another tool it's like I say I have creative meetings with my computer you literally like so
- 31:29here's what I'm thinking these are my thoughts and I find myself often like I'll do it on the drive
- 31:35home and it was I've got my my GPT is actually on my phone and I'll just put it on in the car
- 31:41and I'll just talk to my GPT about stuff on the drive home I know I need a hobby but like
- 31:49literally I'll be like hey I'm trying to come up with this idea this is what's going on in my head
- 31:52because I can say it faster than I can type it yeah you know this is what's going on I'm trying
- 31:56to find out solutions for this this is the idea that I'm having I'm worried about this and this
- 32:01and particularly these are the hurdles that are holding me back but these are the things that I
- 32:05really are good at and I'm just throwing all of this out there and then I'll end with what are
- 32:10your thoughts yeah and and sometimes it will it'll do not sometimes it'll do nothing but take my
- 32:16thoughts and organize them in a way that I'm like okay like I just rambled but it's as if I had a
- 32:21secretary that was listening to everything I was saying and then putting it into some kind of
- 32:24presentation format other times I'm asking it questions like what am I not seeing like how
- 32:31how am I I'm blind to something in this because these are all the things I'm doing and it's not
- 32:36working what what's missing in this equation that's beautiful um and and like I said it's not using
- 32:43AI to do my job but it's enhancing my critical thinking skill yes and and like I said in in the
- 32:50world of medicine there's so much data out there take function right like Hyman has put together
- 32:56this tool now there's there's flaws to the tool it always falls to the tool because AI only knows
- 33:02what you've taught it so all the data is an example like it's mostly male data yeah so does that
- 33:09skew accurately for a female patient or do we have to have a little bit of sensitivity to the fact
- 33:13that the data is not always a hundred percent accurate like what what's going on there and it's like
- 33:17it'll get better in time but I think for for nothing else for me I look at it as really being
- 33:23that the objective partner in the conversation who doesn't have an emotional bias and can point out
- 33:29my blind spot that's like do you find that it would be even in healthcare that individuals would
- 33:34respond more positively to something that's more objectively but objectively not biased toward
- 33:39one way or the other like for instance if you said you had you put it instead of information
- 33:43it spits out four things and some people would be like if if you if you knew like a practitioner
- 33:47human body was like really biased you'd be like I don't know but if you if you got non biased
- 33:52information if it was truly non biased do you think people would take it better you know because
- 33:56it's like like I want both you know both okay this isn't both like I want I want you as my doctor
- 34:04to say look these are your presenting symptoms or maybe there's no symptom at all and you're
- 34:08just looking at a goal yeah right because that I don't believe that healthcare should be symptom
- 34:12relief I think healthcare should be optimization and balance and it's like so if I'm talking to you
- 34:17and saying look this is what's happened I want to figure out a way to optimize my sleep or maybe
- 34:21I'm coming to you and saying my left leg is three inches shorter than my right like what do I do
- 34:25like here's the symptom if I put all of that stuff in and you're like hmm I've seen this before
- 34:31but let me get back to you and you go back to your AI bot you've got so much content like you could
- 34:37train a bot in no time and it's like literally going into this this bot content and saying look
- 34:43my patient came in these are his goals this is this this is my experience with these symptoms
- 34:50and this is what I'm thinking hmm can you give me an objective look at these things and tell me
- 34:55what else could it be that's good because then it what it does is it tells you like okay number one
- 35:00is what you thought intuitively but here's two three and four that it could be and it may make you go
- 35:06two I don't agree with three I think you got bad data but I should probably test for four yeah
- 35:11like four's probably something I should test for before I before I plant my my flag on number one
- 35:17let me at least rule out number four that makes point cases makes thought at my head uh some people
- 35:25like they give up coffee for four years hold that promise has a point um it like I gotta give
- 35:30up coffee for so many years like the first avenue would be like I shouldn't drink it because um
- 35:35you know there's a big move and it's true about having mold on coffee and I believe that
- 35:40as mold that's why we have here at the conference they have a very mold-free coffee but if you
- 35:43had like a certain objective points you know yes you could have mold on your coffee but there could
- 35:49be possibly like a genetic the information that you can't process caffeine which if a person the
- 35:54doctor didn't look into that you would stop drinking coffee for the rest of your life he's like well
- 35:57every you know it's just mold and I'm like no you just have a gene that doesn't process caffeine
- 36:02that well so I see what you're saying you'd have to have every aspect and have some human input
- 36:07into it as well yeah I still want a doctor who thinks yeah but you could use it they could use it
- 36:12AI that can explore options like Steve Gundry at the HOS summit was using a similar example and he
- 36:18talked about a woman who had um they'd cut all gluten and everything else out of her diet
- 36:24and her symptoms at all went away and she was doing great and so on so forth and then a year or two
- 36:30later she started to slip back into some of the symptoms that she was having and they ended up
- 36:34finding out that you know when he went into more of the lifestyle type things she didn't touch anything
- 36:41however he discovered through conversation that her her son had moved back into her house
- 36:48and he was slicing bread on the kitchen counter and she was so sensitive that anything she put
- 36:55on the kitchen counter she was actually absorbing you know gluten in her system and it started to
- 37:00detox wow and it was like what an interesting thing but again I mean it's a doctor right you're
- 37:06you're you're you're a detective you are and there would be mind blowing and numbing not in a bad
- 37:13way but like to go through every scenario that you could and say like you as a human you're like I
- 37:18went through every scenario but if you could load as much information to AI and it could give you
- 37:22spit out information like all your sons cut and bread on the counter and you're like oh that would
- 37:27be a bit extreme I could be but I'm just saying but still like you're a detective exactly right
- 37:31and and if and if you literally are a detective and you've got a tool that can actually spit out
- 37:36every possible scenario you know and then you get to pick which ones seem to be the most rational
- 37:41or then you get to use huge human judgment and say all right I can test for that I can test for
- 37:46that that's unlikely so I'll put it on the back burner like literally can you use that kind of
- 37:51as a diagnostic tool and and play that out in private practice to get a more accurate
- 37:58diagnosis and treatment play I would say this with the amount of patients that are out there
- 38:02we've both seen as many people come to an office and as little doctors out there and then being
- 38:07fried in their brain and being tired a lot of them are they're like I just don't have enough
- 38:11capacity I think they would have to use AI because it literally at least give as new
- 38:15scenarios to the doctor to actually go over it with the patient because you see it as well as I do
- 38:19when patients come in and they're like sick and tired and they like you know after years they found
- 38:24out like it was a mold sensitivity and you go man it'd be great if like a dog could have like
- 38:28taken all the information positive and in there and go five years ago and just spit it out
- 38:32well because it feels like a guessing game particularly for a for the average person who's
- 38:35trying to figure out their own physiology and it's like you're at least a physician you've got a
- 38:39head start on this kind of stuff but it's like for an average person to figure out mold toxicity
- 38:44yeah but or or I mean gluten sensitivity I suppose gets some information nowadays but it's like
- 38:49there's just it's like a revolving door of how many stupid things could possibly go on and I
- 38:53think that the the resentment factor for doctors and for patients would greatly re-reduced if you
- 39:00had somebody to be a great assistant a great assistant and this is the key like you you know in
- 39:05practice and you know many doctors go through practice in their lives and they always say that
- 39:10they need to find that one good assistant they need to make that that'll stick with them that
- 39:14can read their mind and I need this person to be with me to write all the notes and then do
- 39:18some investigation but you're correct every great movie about a doctor always had the doctor
- 39:23who was the investigator who was always a defective somehow they see this doctor spinning all night
- 39:27you know and I mean I've read books waiting to the night to find out something for one person
- 39:32but you get tired as a practitioner and you you know now the tools can be used to help you with
- 39:38that investigation well and you've got so many people to be thinking of at the same time right
- 39:42plus your own life tell you usually don't have a lot like I want to see the tools in place where
- 39:49and this is so so my bent is that I would love love to make that the topic of next year's conference
- 39:56like so I'm trying to sell them on it like how do we incorporate this like let's not fight against it
- 40:01yep it's it's here it's here but it's not going away right it's like trying to ignore cell phones
- 40:06like well no everyone has them like they're not going anywhere not like this is life how do we how
- 40:11do we start to adapt this into treatment and how do we rather than again fight against the
- 40:16machine like how do we just learn to adapt to this and use it better and actually become better
- 40:22practitioners truly at using it but that that would be mine that would be if you got I think
- 40:28I'm asking like if you had that avenue where you had AI that could help a doctor go through the
- 40:32steps could AI help but I would say that the human touch would be then a doctor could analyze
- 40:38somebody and say well this is like the the psychological the emotional aspect you're going to go
- 40:42through through these scenarios maybe that's what the doctor is going to guide them through there
- 40:46like the human touch or maybe AI could do it too I mean like I know like what I mean like literally
- 40:52for persons going through this and they say well you have a hormonal issue you've got endometriosis
- 40:56this is their things and you got this and this is a possibility of an infection you start clearing
- 41:00this out but I'm like this maybe could AI could spit out something say this is the emotional
- 41:05aspects gonna happen and then you could be as a doctor going okay you need to go get this kind
- 41:08of therapy or counseling or something like there's a lot of scenarios that need to be addressed but
- 41:12that would be a really good so it's happening it's here the world has already changed three three
- 41:17months from now different world because I had one individual who put us like from one of the AI
- 41:25apps I had like for like one of my Instagram feeds about something about kidneys or something and
- 41:29they put it into an AI he just thought it'd be great you know to do it and it spit out information
- 41:33about like what kind of people will be affected by this kidney disease and then he goes oh man
- 41:38it's gotten smarter I was like what he goes well I put the same thing in the AI three months later
- 41:43and it had five times the amount of information that could happen I was like it learned I was like
- 41:50and it's forever learning and I think we need to perhaps mission impossible but we absolutely need
- 41:59I think for every industry there's an adaptation that needs to take place yeah I think the medical
- 42:04industry is not any different from that and we're just seeing so much revolutionary and I'm curious
- 42:09though how did we get from where we were to where we ended on AI and like the conversations with
- 42:16you just kind of roll all over they'll seem like they're like they're like what are they even talking
- 42:20about right now like him and I was like why do I even do all these show notes for you and then
- 42:24you don't even pay attention to them the uh but but I love this stuff Chris and I love talking to
- 42:28you because you're like the frequent flyer on our podcast now like but there's so much good
- 42:33information that comes up from it uh and I absolutely love having you on here oh brother it's
- 42:39just so fun I just like our conversation if I don't get to catch because he's always on the go
- 42:43and I'm like at least we get to and now just to hang out and talk for an hour I know I mean
- 42:46hey it's gonna be good I don't mind like to me just catch up say hey give you that's all good
- 42:50buddy it's all good buddy very good guys if you're looking for more information about Dr. Chris
- 42:54Motley all of his contact information is below in the show notes I highly recommend that you
- 42:58subscribe to his podcast ancient ancient health podcast you know I know it's ancient health I was
- 43:04ancient I almost said ancient medicine medicine so I stopped that's a great one ancient medicine
- 43:07of you really good it's good well we'll get into that conversation some other time because I'm
- 43:11convinced that ancient medicine is actually ancient wisdom is coming back into the medical field right
- 43:15now when we talk about frequencies and all this other kind of stuff yes and things that they
- 43:19knew back then now actually are making sense that's right in the world is now maybe ready for it so
- 43:25that being said check out Chris Motley follow his podcast and learn more about all the cool stuff he's
- 43:30doing and I know your backlogs you got guests all over the place all there we get you like we're
- 43:34gonna have you get back on like there's a they told me that we worked hard to get like so many like
- 43:39in the the doc and you know like and it's like and they say well you we can't do any more because
- 43:43we feel like we're like five or six months ahead now or back up and I'm like I didn't know that
- 43:47I just shot videos and that's all yeah but we just like really shorts and stuff like that and
- 43:51keeps it interesting that's right guys we'll see you next time
