Hiluy Lobo Felicio_edited.jpg

At the intersection of consciousness evolution and technological innovation, I work to ensure emerging technologies serve humanity's highest potential. My expertise lies in developing frameworks that bridge Silicon Valley's technical capabilities with timeless wisdom traditions, focusing on the ethical and regenerative applications of artificial intelligence. Through deep immersion in both meditative practices and advanced technology development, I've cultivated a unique capacity for integrating expanded awareness with practical technological solutions. This allows me to help organizations transform their relationship with technology from potentially extractive to inherently regenerative. Currently based in San Francisco, I collaborate with conscious tech pioneers and wisdom keepers to create methodologies that enhance collective intelligence rather than replace human wisdom. My work focuses on developing AI systems that support the emergence of regenerative societies while honoring the delicate balance between technological advancement and ecological wisdom.
