  • The Perception Lineage — And Why My Work Is Different
    2026/01/18

    Sam Berne (00:01.486)
    Hey everyone, welcome to the podcast today. So the title of this podcast is the perception lineage and why my work is different. I’d like to address a question that keeps coming up. Where does my work sit in relation to David Abram, Ian McIlchrist, Merleau Ponte and indigenous perception traditions? I’m clearly in the same

    territory, but I also do something very different. I don’t just describe perception. I restore it. Here’s my main premise. Perception is retrainable. It’s relational and it’s resolvable through our nervous system. Vision isn’t just optical. Vision is the nervous system.

    organizing itself around reality and it does so through the body. David Abram is a perceptual poet.

    He re-enchants the sensory system. He reminds us that the world is alive, responsive and participatory. But he’s not doing nervous system rehabilitation. He restores meaning. I restore capacity. McGillchrist is the master diagnostician for restoring attention. He shows us

    how the culture collapses perception into a narrow focus.

    Sam Berne (01:50.05)
    And he gives us the map of cultural injury. My work takes the next step when somebody asks, okay, how do I get my depth back? Merleau-Ponty gives us our truth back that perception is embodied. He says it’s not just a mental construct, but he doesn’t give any practices. My work takes the

    theory of embodiment and puts it into different practices, your biology, your physiology, your ocular motility, your perception, your memory and your nervous system safety.

    Indigenous traditions are relational. They understand the field. They can look at the big picture, the wide vision. Respectfully, I’m not here to take their symbols or rituals. I’m here to restore your biology, which makes perception relational again. Three-dimensional vision, slow nonlinear movement.

    Breath.

    safety and sensory reciprocity. Here’s the cleanest way to say it. Abram restores the sacredness of perception.

    Sam Berne (03:25.666)
    McIlchrist emphasizes the importance of attention. Merleau-Ponty emphasizes the importance of embodiment. Indigenous cultures restore relational seeing.

    And I restore the perceptual field through the nervous system. And this makes vision alive again. I observed that vision is a lived experience through the body.

    If you’re experiencing your vision tense, braced, rushed, defended, tight, narrow, you’re not broken. You’re describing a perceptual field that’s under stress. Just know that your vision can be restored. So that’s our show for today. I want to thank you so much for tuning in. Remember, vision is more than eyesight.

    It’s a whole body experience.

  • Artificial Intelligence in 2026: Why Perception — Not Intelligence — Will Decide the Future AI
    2026/01/11
    🎙️“Welcome to The Berne Podcast. I’m Dr. Sam Berne, and this is a space where we explore perception, technology, health, and what it really means to be human in a rapidly changing world. This isn’t about trends for the sake of trends — it’s about understanding how our nervous systems, our vision, and our decision-making are being shaped right now. In today’s episode, I want to share my 2026 view on Artificial Intelligence — not from hype or fear, but from the lens of perception. Because the real question isn’t how intelligent AI is becoming. It’s how well we are perceiving while using it.” 1. Framing the Conversation (2–3 minutes) “Most conversations about AI focus on power, speed, and intelligence. But intelligence alone has never guaranteed wisdom. In my work with vision and nervous systems, I’ve seen something very clear: When perception is distorted, even highly intelligent systems make poor decisions. That applies to humans — and it applies to how humans use AI.” 2. The Core Shift Coming in 2026 (3–4 minutes) “By 2026, AI will be everywhere: • embedded in workflows • decision-support systems • creative tools • diagnostics • education • business strategy t AI in 2026: Where It’s Actually Showing Up (and Why Perception Matters) 1. Embedded in Workflows “By 2026, AI won’t feel like a separate tool you open. It’ll be embedded directly into workflows. Email platforms will suggest responses. CRMs will predict next actions. Scheduling systems will optimize time automatically. Content systems will pre-shape messaging. The danger here isn’t dependence — it’s unquestioned momentum. When AI is embedded, decisions happen faster than perception can catch up. And if your nervous system is already in urgency, you stop asking: ‘Is this actually the right move?’ AI will move the river faster. Perception determines whether you’re steering or just being carried.” 2. Decision-Support Systems “Decision-support systems sound helpful — and they can be. AI will analyze patterns, risks, probabilities, and outcomes faster than any human team. But here’s what I’ve seen over decades: Under stress, humans outsource judgment too quickly. If perception is narrowed, AI outputs become authority instead of input. Good decision-making doesn’t come from more data. It comes from contextual awareness. In 2026, the leaders who thrive will use AI as a second nervous system — not a replacement for discernment.” 3. Creative Tools “AI is already reshaping creativity. Writing, music, video, design — all accelerated. But creativity doesn’t come from speed. It comes from signal. When perception is overstimulated, creativity becomes derivative. AI makes it easy to generate — but harder to feel what matters. The future creative edge won’t be who produces the most. It’ll be who can still sense resonance, timing, and emotional truth. AI can generate content. Only humans can perceive meaning.” 4. Diagnostics “In diagnostics — medical, behavioral, business — AI will be astonishingly good at pattern recognition. But diagnosis without perception becomes mislabeling. I’ve watched this happen in healthcare for years. AI can identify correlations. It cannot feel context, trauma, adaptation, or resilience. Without perceptual intelligence, diagnostics risk becoming faster ways to miss the point. The best use of AI in diagnostics will be as a mirror, not a verdict.” 5. Education “Education will be transformed. AI tutors. Personalized learning paths. Instant feedback. Adaptive testing. But learning doesn’t happen when the nervous system is overloaded. Perception narrows under pressure. Curiosity collapses. Integration stops. The real question in 2026 education won’t be: ‘How fast can we teach?’ It’ll be: ‘Can the learner’s nervous system stay open while learning?’ Education that ignores perception will produce information — not wisdom.” 6. Business Strategy “AI will increasingly shape business strategy. Market predictions. Customer behavior modeling. Operational optimization. But strategy isn’t just analysis. It’s orientation. Under stress, organizations mistake speed for clarity. AI amplifies this. The most successful businesses won’t be the most automated. They’ll be the most perceptually literate. They’ll know when to pause. When to widen the field. When to let things dissolve instead of forcing resolution. AI will reward those who understand timing — not just data.” Closing Bridge Line (Use Before Your Final Point) “So across workflows, decisions, creativity, diagnostics, education, and strategy… AI doesn’t eliminate human responsibility. It magnifies it. The question isn’t: ‘What can AI do?’ It’s: ‘Can we perceive clearly enough to use it well?’” If you want next, I can: • compress this into a 12-minute solo episode • create 1–2 minute clip scripts for LinkedIn or Instagram •...

    Sam Berne (00:00.078)
    Hey everyone, welcome to the program today. So I want to talk about slowing down is not what you think it is and I’m referring to your pace, your nervous system, your stress and your perceptual fields.

    talking to people over the years, people think slowing down is collapsing at night watching TV scrolling on your Instagram or maybe taking some high-powered aerobic class at a fitness center, which could blow off some temporary stress or even doing some cathartic therapies, which in the moment you have a release, but it becomes very addictive.

    And there isn’t really a long-term nervous system reset or regulation. And what I’m talking about is long-term self-regulation of the nervous system. It’s not about effort. It’s about pace. You know, technology is so much part of our culture and we’re always going to the speed of our email of social media.

    And when we do this, we disconnect from our biological rhythms.

    Our nervous system has evolved from cycles, pauses and variations. And even though we’re rewarded for speed efficiency and productivity, it’s having a major toll in all walks of life, whether it’s health business or relationships. True self-regulation is not about collapsing withdrawing. It’s not passive.

    Sam Berne (01:48.32)
    It’s an intentional shift in our orientation.

    When pace exceeds our biological rhythms, our perception narrows. When we narrow our perceptual fields, our decision-making becomes more difficult. Our relationships become unmanageable and our health tends to spiral down. Technology increases our speed and we lose context timing.

    and we see less alternative options. In my work, what I observe is that when our peripheral vision and our perception opens,

    patterns become visible and our decisions become better. Our vision isn’t just about our eyes, but it’s driven by our whole body, which influences our nervous system. When we slow down, there’s better communication in the eye brain body chain. Slowing down isn’t doing less. It’s connecting more to your rhythms. When you release the imposed have tos,

    Perception changes and everything else follows. If this way of working with perception and the nervous system resonates with you, consider joining my online cohort in March or coming to my retreat in California in September. These aren’t about fixing or pushing change. These are about creating conditions. So clarity emerges.

    Sam Berne (03:36.994)
    So that’s my podcast for today. Thank you so much for tuning in until next time. Take care.
