Vishen Lakhiani learned at Singularity University that AI's cost-to-power ratio doubles every 3.3 months, meaning roughly 1 million times more powerful by 2030. He explores what that exponential growth could unlock: curing cancer, reversing deserts, solving political divides. He's hosting a free AI Summit in July to teach an eight-step process for using AI in work, creativity, parenting, and health.

Few weeks ago, at Singularity University in Palo Alto, I learned something that absolutely blew my mind and has me re evaluating my life. I'd like to share that with you. What we learned at Singularity University, which is a five day executive program in Silicon Valley that braces CEOs and executives for where technology is going and how it's going to change the world, is this. We learned that AI's cost to power ratio is doubling every 3.3 months. Now let me explain what this means. It means every 3.3 months, for the same dollar you spend, you're getting AI that's twice as powerful every 3.3 months. This means that roughly in a year, roughly in 12 months, AI increases by 16 times. And in two years it increases by 256 times. Now guess where will AI be by 2030? That's five years out. If you look at this doubling, AI will actually be a million times more powerful by 2030. One million times more powerful. Now, when this happens, reality and the world in which we know it is going to be completely different. They are now predicting that we might become a space faring civilization within our lifespan. That diseases like cancer might be curable, that we might solve global warming, that we might solve desalination, so that the dead deserts of the world can become rainforests. That we might solve our political divide. And every human being in the world would be able to plug into pure genius intellect. The way we think about our goals, the way we think about our health, the way you're raising your children, all will have to adapt. But most people are just not prepared for this. In fact, the rate of exponential change is so fast, most individuals can't even wrap their mind around it. So to help you understand how to brace for this age of AI, I'd like to invite you to attend AI Summit 2025 on Mindvalley. Every year we do an AI Summit. We've been doing it for three years now. Over 100,000 people join this free summit every summer. And we'd like to invite you to join this July's AI Summit. In this summit, I'm going to teach you an eight step process to rethink how you're planning your life for an age of exponential AI. But beyond that, you're going to learn how to use AI in your company. In art, in music, in creativity, for raising your kids, for improving your health. So many wonderful topics from so many incredible teachers. Our AI Summit is a highlight every single year and it's completely free. I will see you there.
