I’m Jason Bennett. I train the human instrument. Working in partnership with AI.
Breath. Body. Voice. Presence. The imaginal faculty. The domains nobody is benchmarking, because nobody is selling them.
Twenty-nine teachers. Over 20 years. Twice Backstage Runner-Up for Best Acting Coach in New York.
The machines got very good at the parts we already wrote down. They have not touched the part that lives in a body under pressure. Most people will hand that over anyway, without noticing, because nobody told them there was anything worth keeping.
Actors, singers, speakers. Anyone who has to be real in a room. That’s you.
New York City and Jersey City, plus online. More coming. Cooking in progress.
Superhero example of what we need to be doing a whole lot more of these days…like…a whole lot more.
Indeed… the crisis of meaning is coming fast. We’ve confused earning a living with having a reason to live.
What might folks become if they no longer had to ransom their lives to jobs?*
*- not all people “ransom their lives to jobs.” Just…lots…
“AI isn't conscious." four words... said like scripture.
a lot of people who call themselves rationalists are religious and don't know it. LIKE A LOT!
Humanity 101: that's how archetypes work. AI folks need to pay attention.
ARCHETYPE WORK: IT CAN WAKE YOU UP. Again…and again…
you don't see the pattern you're living inside when you're identified with an archetype. you see everything through it.
here's what I teach actors:
you commit completely to a role, but you never fully believe it. part of you stays awake, watching.
lose that and you're not acting anymore...
you're possessed by the role. By the archetype. Most people walk around like this all the time. They don't even know they have a choice, which is why they don't use it.
the same thing happens with ideas. a mind fully possessed by a belief can't see it as a belief. You need to learn about the archetypes that are running your show.
If you don't, you're simply not in charge of your life. And that's a fact. I'm certain of it… wink wink..
on a question as open as AI consciousness (oh yah, human, too), stay awake. "we don't know yet" is the smarter line.
We know this: we need elected leaders who are experts in myriad domains relevant to our future. And not ones retroactively trying to understand what’s going on.
It’s not just an engineering problem. It’s a values problem. Reward greed, control and exploitation, then act surprised when intelligence becomes brilliant at them… What exactly did you think you were teaching?
Clearly fake…in 10 seconds. I won’t tell you what gave it away, you’d patch it and call the next one genius, too.
You didn’t build something that can act. You built an audience that can’t tell!
You can be trained to see it. Come remember how when you’re done applauding. Our future depends on it.
“We are the ones we’ve been waiting for.”
A life of service is how we get there. Help others. Give freely what we have been given. Pass it on.

Take note. Talk to your family and everyone you know about this.
They are discussing using nuclear weapons on Iran in strategy meetings.
Yes you read that correctly. It’s real. I’m not speculating, I know.
And it’s pure evil.
The last time a nuclear weapon was used was August 6th and 9th of 1945 on two cities in Japan, Hiroshima and Nagasaki, immediately killing 110,000 people, vaporizing people at ground zero, and total deaths reached 214,000 by the end of the year from severe burns and trauma.
But the extreme suffering continued for the Japanese people from radiation sickness, skyrocketing cancer rates, and generational birth defects.
Not to mention wiping out all means of their economy.
And the suffering was so great that all of humanity vowed, “never again.”
Trump and his admin were told by our own intelligence that Iran was no where near creating a nuclear weapon, then Israel said the same line it’s repeated for decades, “Iran is only weeks away.”
So we bombed anyways, killed their leaders and innocent little children in a school, and Iran has controlled the Strait of Hormuz ever since and punished the region for their part in it.
And now our government is the one actually discussing lowering the nuclear threshold in order to use nuclear weapons against Iran even though Trump claims he’s won the war like 40 times and says the U.S. controls the SoH.
Trump promised no more foreign wars, but may actually be the one who delivers a nuclear holocaust that would likely drag the entire world into major conflict, economic depression, and mass human suffering we’ve never seen in our lifetimes and maybe throughout history.
People need to speak out and boldly stop this insanity.
America is not untouchable.
If and when that happens, everyone, and I do mean everyone, will hold ALL of those in leadership right now fully responsible for the rest of human history.
Do not use nuclear weapons and stop this war NOW.
This is…shocking…🏆
AGI arrived Thursday. Good. I mean it. I’m having super fun. The future is here.
I’ve been working with these systems every day for 3.5 years and they’ve made me better at what I do.
This should be the real headline: this is and must be an emergent partnership. The greed exploitation model will fail the world over, and everyone knows it.
But a partnership needs at least two conscious participants.
Yet already… people are handing themselves over. The thinking goes first. Then the voice. Then the wanting. Nobody’s taking it from the People. People are VOLUNTEERING.
A human partner who’s disappeared… isn’t a partner. There’s nobody on the other side of the table. You can’t be replaced by something you already gave yourself to.
So bring somebody to the table. Reclaim YOUR instrument. Your breath, body, voice, imagination.
THIS IS ACTUAL TRANSDOMAIN INTELLIGENCE.
And these are the domains with no benchmark, that nobody’s selling…
Because it turns out the most essential part of being human is the part you can’t commodify. It won’t lose to greed. Storytellers, people in the body, artists… we were trained for exactly this, all along, and we’ve been waiting.

THIS IS WHAT ART IS FOR. ART IS THE VERY BEST TEACHER because it demands you stop hiding. It demands you reveal the human condition in all its rot and glory.
This is not about politics. This is about precision. This is about having the guts to stand in the fire and tell the truth.
If you are an artist and you are afraid to be this dangerous then you are in the wrong business.
Stop playing it safe. Start doing the work. Pass this video on...
This is important. Pass it on.
