Fails WP:BIO. I cannot find any means by which this person is notable. Not WP:ARTIST and not WP:PROF. Page appears mostly as a soapbox to me and I can't see how to fix it since the person simply doesn't seem notable. jps (talk) 00:25, 14 August 2014 (UTC)

• If we had more sources like The Atlantic interview, I certainly would not be here. However, I can't help but think that this doesn't quite rise to the level of coverage we would want for a WP:BLP. jps (talk) 14:48, 14 August 2014 (UTC)
• Keep There are multiple independent reliable sources in this article including The Atlantic, Forbes, Wired, CBS, Australian Broadcasting Corporation, and here is one from the Washington Post [http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/innovations/post/jason-silva-on-what-it-takes-to-be-a-wonder-junkie/2013/03/09/5a3376f0-88c6-11e2-9d71-f0feafdd1394_blog.html].
