Deepak Chopra's latest vision: Integrating AI & well-being

The world may still be grappling with a latent fear of artificial intelligence (AI) but well-known author and new-age guru Deepak Chopra sees huge potential in tapping its powers for holistic well-being. In An Optimistic Conversation with AI, an article published on his website, www.deepakchopra.com, he writes: "AI in its present flawed state is quite capable of acting in the role of research assistant, therapist, confidant, and guru. You can even prompt it by saying, "You are my confidant" or "Talk to me as if you are a trained psychologist." The advantages of using AI in these roles are multiple. You can ask as many questions as you want and count on being heard." Chopra's new book, Digital Dharma, explores how AI can elevate spiritual intelligence and personal well-being. But that's not the newsy bit.

In the past couple of months, what's been making headlines is Chopra's new venture into AI called Cyberhuman.ai. Co-founded with Poonacha Machaiah, who's CEO of The Chopra Foundation, the platform's vision as per the website integrates AI-powered diagnostics, an AI-driven digital twin, secure blockchain-backed data management along with spiritual tools to offer customized well-being programmes for users that can be availed on subscription (the prices range from $1 for an hour to $6 for a month). What's unique about the venture - currently in beta mode - is that the data that the platform relies on is culled from the extensive work of Chopra alone.
