In the first half, Matthew James Bailey, a leading expert in ethical AI and innovation, discussed the rapid advancements and profound implications of artificial intelligence. While acknowledging the unprecedented growth in AI capabilities, including the recent release of ChatGPT-5, he commented that the technology, unlike the human brain, functions as a "probability and stochastic or statistical machine that works on data and knowledge" and currently lacks true intelligence or consciousness. AI does not possess a soul, nor can it access metaphysical dimensions, he added.
Bailey called AI supercomputers "the new digital cathedrals," places where society is increasingly placing its faith. Addressing the question of whether AI could bring humans closer to God, he offered a nuanced view: AI cannot connect to the divine or understand the soul, but can serve as a valuable tool for exploring spiritual traditions and interpreting dreams. Adding a political dimension to the discussion, he suggested that efforts to insert ideological control within AI -- particularly by a so-called New World Order -- were countered by President Trump's executive order to remove ideology from AI systems.
He reported that AI is nearing artificial general intelligence (AGI), with superintelligence -- AI capable of recoding itself and evolving on its own -- also on the horizon. There are immense energy requirements for such advancements, and AI supercomputers could consume nearly half of the United States' energy supply, he cautioned. On the positive side, Bailey sees AI as a tool to reform global systems toward equity and sustainability, freeing humanity from survival mode to pursue higher consciousness and explore the cosmos. However, he stressed the importance of embedding ethical boundaries and morality into AI to prevent centralized control risks and potential misuse.

In the latter half, Melissa Gates Perry discussed her work as an intuitive channel for Aralamb, a spirit entity, whom she considers her contracted lifetime guide. Aralamb resides on what he calls the "89th level of creation," a spiritual realm where souls originate and return after death, she revealed, adding that this connection is unique to her and distinct from other channels who may communicate with various entities or extraterrestrial beings. Perry described her channeling process as a conscious, present experience rather than a trance state, explaining that she maintains full control over when and how Aralamb communicates through her, dispelling notions of possession.
Aralamb himself spoke through Perry during the show, highlighting his mission: "to bring awareness to every soul... about who they truly are in the universe... and to help souls remember what their spiritual specialty might be." He framed this as a collective awakening, essential for humanity's ongoing evolution. Aralamb shared his perspective as a soul with multiple lifetimes, including thousands of years as a Pleiadian, and described the timeless nature of existence beyond Earth's linear time.
The conversation turned to Earth's current spiritual state. Aralamb characterized the planet's ongoing ascension as a process exposing hidden darkness. "Everything that is dark, everything that has been in the background, working in nefarious ways, is being forced up by creation, or God," he said. This exposure, he argued, causes instability but ultimately leads to transformative healing and the end of suffering on Earth. In the last hour, Perry channeled Aralamb in readings for callers.
