Episode notes

The best thing we can do in my estimation is to immerse our self in this tapestry of intelligence. I have willfully given my the care of me over to an algorithm and it serves my interests better than I can serve my own interests. It's kind of an absurd proposition that we'd bucket and say AI has one set of interests and alignment and humans have another, he says.

Bryan Johnson is the world's most measured human. Johnson sold his company, Braintree Venmo, to PayPal for $800m in 2013. Since then, he's been investing millions to reduce aging. In 2021, he reduced his epigenetic age by 5.1 years in 7 months (World Record). His open-sourced protocol, Project Blueprint, is an endeavor to achieve humanity and earth-scale cooperation starting within Self. In this conversation, we spoke about artificial intelligence, parenting, zero-principle thinking, the big change in Bryan's life, and why Bryan is kind to his detractors.
