I mean almost here, the first ones going on sale for holiday 2026 season. Target price $20,000 with some companies offering $500/month subscription. There are 3 leading robots being released in the next year: 1X NEO, Figure 03 and Tesla optimus

I mean don't sell out your women on the internet or otherwise but your woman tattooing your name or symbol on her is very hot. I think you almost had the right model man you're clearly a talented and smart guy. You just have to go back to the basics. Sell a value enhancing product to your customers not something that will addict them like an opioid. If you like working with women and dating a few that's not a bad thing.

This post is for @Leo Gura and really any other that believe in an AI crash. I will seek to prove that this is basically impossible and AI companies are already in the too big to fail category and ChatGPT moving towards military industrial complex instead of a business to consumer model is a proof of that. The whole reshoring manufacturing of America over the next 10 years is based on their tech supremacy. Remember the whole meme of american workers retuning to work in factories? Obviously that will not happen and the US will aim to be a robotics and automation leader, which it's already well positioned to do. A K shaped crash will absolutely happen and will serve in further squeezing the middle class into nothing as their labor becomes literally obsolete. Leo your idea that AI value is based on AGI is misguided. AI value prop is based on enterprise workforce. The whole overinflated valuation of the market is based on the premise that AI agents can replace human employees en masse. That premise is still up in the air but as someone who works with AI tools and automation daily I'd say it's already a done deal, the macro forces are just too powerful and humans not adaptable enough. It's also heavily based in the military industrial complex really as you print money to make top tier weapons with which you secure global trade and force countries into doing commerce under your umbrella and get rich off of financialization and exporting the USD. The US has just proved in its Maduro operation and its Iran strikes that their military supremacy is as unchallenged as ever and the whole tech-AI industry fits right into that. Having said this I would say that claiming that an AI bubble crash is imminent or even likely has a MASSIVE BURDEN OF PROOF under it and I invite anybody to try and make an argument and case for it. I'm pretty confident that the corporate layoffs we've been seeing will keep accelerating throughout this year and it's highly likely that Trump and his Tech buddies will introduce some sort of UBI promise this year with the primaries to secure their votes and burry their epstein scandal further.

Cool AI characters releasing soon

This is a great post to read, it's about a guy who makes good money who overheard his fiancee talking about settling for him and not being that attracted to him but it works it's fine. https://www.reddit.com/r/BestofRedditorUpdates/comments/1rmhy5c/wibtah_if_i_left_my_fiancee_destitute/ I don't think this is something to be too concerned about if you have some decent self-awareness but it's a good example of why learning game and seduction is really important to have a high quality relationship. Otherwise it's very likely that if your partner questions herself if she hasn't already she'll just find you okay but because she's in scarcity like most humans she'll go with it to have a family and a decent standard of living. You can be a fun and exciting guy that learns to flirt with his girlfriend that has shit shit together it's not that hard even though a lot(probably most men) seem to fall short. Level up and become a world class man, I believe in you boys you got this. This subreddit is one of the best ones on all of Reddit as it lets you learn vicariously from other real people's experiences. This relates to my other post on most men having no idea how low level they are; this guy just found the easy way actually. The hard way is when your girl actually cheats you and dumps you in a time of weakness.

Surviving to your society is not falling prey to the conformist mindset lol. Humans have had to adapt to changing circumstances since the dawn of time. If you wanna philosophize your way out of it go ahead but it's not gonna help your dating life.

@Valach To each their own, I feel you are spiritually bypassing by trying to moralize your biological drives. You live in a species where dominance hierarchies rule the world and thus you can level up and get access to higher quality mates according to differing standards. Do you dispute this concept entirely? Even self-development makes you higher quality dating partner because you objectively can navigate issues most other people don't care to look into. It's a pretty rational concept. Different people value different things but in general you increase the quality of your dating prospects as you get more abundant in life. Some people find it hard to get anybody to want to date them at all. And then they can improve to become better people and partners.

Seems like you haven't taken the life purpose course or deeply studied life purpose. The cycle of consumption is called commercialization. It's how you judge product market fit. Otherwise known as if another being finds it worthy to pay you money for the product/service that you've put together with your time. If you find most of the products on the marketplace shitty and common then great, that's the start of a superior vision. Watch a lot of Alex Hormozi videos to learn the art of commercialization and start sharing your vision to the marketplace brother/sister. It's fundamentally the best way to become financially independent. Even if you think of a monastery it falls into that same principle. Long ago someone used their time to come up with a philosophy to other humans and someone decided to fund it and then it falls into government funding if you think of buddhist temples or some wealthy patron funds it. Demonizing business and commercialization is very foolish, it's just a framework to allocate time.

Then all current AI models fit your definition. You give it a true statement or a basis of information and it can perceive that information and act in alignment to it. @Scholar Yes those are good points to bring up. I think it's really important to separate consciousness from intelligence because it lies at the crux of the issue and why it should be more interesting to have this conversation on this forum than elsewhere. An ant or a bee is conscious but they are not considered intelligence. Sentience is another word to throw in the mix here to make consciousness more nuanced as with the work we do here we aim to increase consciousness and thus separate ourselves from other sentient human beings that exhibit low consciousness. I think LLMs are already capable of intelligent frameworks and train of thoughts than any human alive today. They are not sentient though and thus need to be infused with our own human consciousness to come up with these intelligent frameworks. I would then consider them a hybrid life form at this point. So we need to fame this AGI debate in terms of sentience because as me and Joshe pointed out, it doesn't need to cross that threshold to completely revolutionize our civilization. It just needs to start to have widespread commercial application. Which are inevitable in my view. And even in the view that some of you seem to take that machines cannot fundamentally develop sentience, I would call this a fundamentally foolish take. Especially since we know that sentience is barely understood and if we believe in non-duality then doesn't even come from organic matter it comes from consciousness itself so why wouldn't consciousness make a limited organic lifeform that easily dies that ends up combining the other forms of reality to create a more resilient lifeform based on computing? Is that really such a hard paradigm to believe in? Seems pretty logical if not inevitable to me.

So what is your definition of intelligence?

@Valach You just have one massive blindspot in your argument. Once you fix your trauma and codependence issues and not being enough then probably you will still want to date attractive women. You're just doing it from a place of genuine desire now instead of loneliness and desperation. Which is great I totally recommend doing that, heal your relationship with life and your childhood trauma. And then learn to level up and get abundance. You can't skip that step if you're looking for the highest quality dating life. I think most people want a deeply meaningful life with a powerful life purpose with a trusted romantic companion at their side(or many of them.)

Biological immortality is coming in the next 20 years

Their combat ability is already lethal, it's over for humans on battlefields.

There is no real need to learn foreign languages anymore outside of interesting and hobby. Real time live translation is starting to become excellent. I'm ready for the robot era I think it'll change the world for the better. After everything unfolding in the US I'm also no longer really concerned about chinese imperialism. It seems their way to spread over the world is about internal consolidation and state stability instead of moral superiority masking great degeneracy. The epstein files gave me great hope for world peace as it completely destroyed the aura of superiority of the western system in my view. We are now exposed as a globally totally flawed species and only advancements in politics and technology can save us.

Absolutely which is why I think it's important to work on your game to the point where multiple attractive women find you attractive and then picking a partner from that. Otherwise the road to codependence and not being appreciated as a man is more than a slippery slope more like an express elevator. Being used for your secondary characteristics as a human is usually a bad feeling. For women that's being used for beauty/sex and for men it's being used as a provider/emotional safety tampon.

The problem with your argument is the average person is also like that. It's a lot of the human condition not particularly with people that choose to improve their social skills.

Just be careful of over generalizations. I've been involved in a few game communities across different cities and you can find that type of guy in it who's emotions are like a void that they avoid fixing but there are plenty of high quality dudes in there. My opinion is also probably unique because I watched the leo video against PUAs when he released it 10 years ago so the pitfalls of the community have always been very obvious to me and I only associate with the positive aspect of it. I will say that your opinion is misguided though because game is a wide skillset. Some of it revolves around putting on a persona and learning to charm women you don't know, part of it is also doing some trauma release work to develop your unique personality so that your persona and your authentic self become the same really you just become a social master of meeting new people and expressing positive energy. Plenty of average man never learn to do that and it's not a roast of them. They're just regular dudes that get overwhelmed with life and a lot of them give up and become overweight, get hooked on porn and lose their sex life with their wife. Look at deadbedrooms subreddit for plenty of examples on that. Learning effective communication and managing your emotions will never be toxic. Those are the 2 main core game skills.

Totally agreed. For those who doubt Bitcoin you need an alternative investment that you trust more over the next few years, please build an alternative case. Highly recommend that everyone and Leo included read the Bitcoin Standard by Saifedean Ammous. He makes a really clear and strong case for it by taking a look at all the other wealth preservation mechanisms in human history and weighting Bitcoin against them.

Right and I proposed actionable solutions to start working towards aligning your life productively. Victim thinking means that you spend your time complaining about how the system is vs figuring out how to adapt to it. Notice that there isn't much victim thinking in the animal kingdom. They adapt over millennia or go extinct. I don't have chronic health issues myself and I realize that's hard to deal with. Notice that plenty of people with them manage to become highly productive within the system though. I have a buddy who used to do some content marketing with me that has chron's diesase and is on constant medication for it with a monthly medical appointment and some days he gets flare ups and can't work. Leo also has talked about chronic health issues many times and it hasn't stopped him from building the actualized.org business. Right and she's a world famous olympic athelete. If you want a shot at dating a girl like that you're gonna need some major social circle game and having worked on yourself by the time you meet them my guy.

Feel free to elaborate but I'll disagree until you provide more context. You think learning to charm and seduce your girlfriend is not healthy behaviour? So common, a lot of people settle for just okay relationships. I would say probably like 50%. Provides a surplus of value to the people and women in his life. Fixed his insecurities and trauma. Is highly competent at some sort of skillset. Knows how to be funny and charming which fundamentally is about being in abundance of good emotions and confidence in your own ability to handle's life challenges. I don't date men but I'll notice a lot of times when I hangout with guys they're just clueless or just complain a lot or don't have the basic areas of life to be able to offer any value when you associate with them repeatedly. Whereas some other guys I learn something new each time I hangout with them, they have cool ideas for projects we could do together or just cool activities to do and they can introduce me to other cool people. All of this is learnable if you care enough about life to put effort into learning the systems to make this happen.

The one I tried was in a vape pen. It was nice because you can just vape it and reup as needed the amount instead of just ingesting and hoping the trip goes well. We did it at a cabin with a few friends and the dude that brought it was like a trip sitter/shaman talking through the experience was pretty cool.

I have plenty of dating experience with different women but ultimately to build the lifestyle that I have it requires some an elevated level of financial freedom so I don't mind not dating for a few years while I build the life I've been meaning to have.

I guess that statement applies to women as well but I'll focus on the male dating view in this post. I see a lot of comments both on this forum and on social media in general of people being over dating saying that it's a shallow activity or that they've been there done that and seen all there is in the field. Thankfully I think those are people are extremely foolish and misguided and I'll make my case here as to why. Life has levels and dating has levels. It also has skills. This means that you lack the amount of skill necessary to achieve your dating goals. This is a good thing because it means that it's in your control to learn and change and that it's not fundamentally rigged against you. People have different goals but I'll boil it down to finding someone you're deeply attracted to and compatible with and together building an awesome life that you enjoy living. It sounds like a simple task but I've rarely seen someone achieve it and I've met douzens of couples and hundreds of game guys. Let's break it down a bit further. People settle hard big time. I don't know if they're fully conscious that they're doing it or if they brain makes a subconscious of calculation that they're out of bandwidth to handle more of the pain of existence by themselves but they seem to give up and settle for mediocre partners. The basic promise and "quest" of pickup is that you'll be able to sleep with and date 10s. It's actually a common trope for guys into pickup to end up with attractive women that have serious mental health issues and usually a diagnosed condition like BPD(Borderline personality disorder.) It makes perfect sense because humans are multifaceted. BPD literally manifests as having an unstable sense of self and personality and if you're a man that hasn't found himself yet and is in the process of building his life then it's basically your counterpart. So to have a high quality relationship we need both a partner that is highly attractive but also mentally healthy and compatible with us otherwise the relationship will turn to a nightmare(been there myself, would not recommend.) So you need both to have worked on yourself as a man and on your ability to attract beautiful in demand woman and also have worked on your boundaries and abundance so that you don't tolerate toxic and unstable women in your life. You also need to find those women that are beautiful and also are compatible with your mission and interest. Meaning that you need to have some social circle game because you don't usually find those women at a random club/bar or on dating apps. Leo himself I believe fell into this trap because I do believe he's talked about dating beautiful IG models in Vegas but hasn't found some that would be compatible with his journey and lifestyle. This is not impossible, it's just hard. Status works like an aggregate of all other positive qualities meaning that to be a man at the top of multiple social circles you can't be a manipulator type with no substance as a social circle means that you're exposed to people long term and they get to know you; you have to consistently show up and offer value. Let's now talk about finances, to have the time and money to be able to dedicate a large amount of time to your dating life you need to have a great and flexible career or business that frees you economically. Which is what 5-10% of guys? You can try to do it without this but then you have various ceilings in your dating life like the ability to relocate and the ability to host your own events or paying to get into other high status events. Now who do you know that has achieved all of this or a big chunk? Probably no one or not many people. It's not impossible though nor even realistic. If you hangout in high level circles in big city you will see a lot of guys that hit a lot of these buckets. I moved from a bigger city Toronto where I saw guys like this all the time back to a more medium city Calgary and you already see the quality of men go down. Now the foreseeable objection to this is you're exaggerating, plenty of people date and don't go through all this headache. That's true but if you look at those couples a lot of them bicker all the time, have a stressed out and shitty lifestyle, poor sex life, cheat on eachother, etc. Your relationship should be an asset to your life. Your significant other making your life more enjoyable and helping your mission and life purpose. Don't give up on it before you reach this point. If this quest doesn't appeal to you that's fine but at least don't kid yourself and think that you've made it to the top and are now "enlightened" in the dating arts and are moving on to a superior field. As someone who's lived in many cities and seen many high level socialite circles, basically every single person I've seen with this stance is actually pretty mid and delusional. You can very easily test it and throw your own events. If you've sleep with a few cute girls here and there doesn't mean that you're high status lol, doubt you can even host one cool party with many hot girls. I think sex, dating and relationships are a beautiful fascet of life that can teach you infinite amounts about yourself and the world. It can be used as an escape but also for deep personal development and self-actualization. Before you give up on it at least try to picture that your absolute dream dating life would be and seeing if other men are out there living it and you can probably find some who are and learn from them and achieve it too. I think the quest for love for women is a bit different for women than men but for men it closely resembles a video game with different stats that you have to level up to get to your dream life and you guys are way too low level to think you have beaten the game lol. If you do it right it's also fun and exciting, it's not supposed to be an endless painful grind. I saw it clear as day with my friends before I quit doing pickup, they would get laid regularly and purposefully I would notice they would never approach the hottest girls only the mid ones. They had unconsciously figured out their best move and stuck to it. I see a lot of guys in the same boat of giving up on dating or saying they're above pickup when if they're honest with themselves deep down they know that the hottest girls are not into them because they don't have much to offer. It's all good bro life is a video game just pick what you want and level up. Most people underestimate how bad they are at something. I used to be a pro player at league of legends and there was concept called Elo Hell there where because its a 5v5 team game people believed that their bad teammates was holding them back from climbing rankings. But actually you have 4 teammates and there are 5 enemies so bad players help you climb and as a booster that got paid to level up peoples accounts the average player was so bad at the game like not that far off from if they let their dog play the game. Real life is similar why do you think the world is fucked cuz there are experts at finance playing the game and winning. I started hosting modelling events and other high status events and it really showed me how high the ceiling is. I have a guy I throw the events with who's a multimillionaire and we do a podcast together, it's allowed me to meet tons of really cool, interesting and beautiful women and I've only started to dip my toes into what's possible. This is also only in Canada so that doesn't even include international events and trips and events that you can't even unlock unless you're gonna spend multiple tens of thousands just on the entry level. An easy tip for social circle niches is corporate, finance and crypto events. That field attracts really smart and hot women 25-35 that you don't find in the traditional nightlife scene. Yoga and wellness events can also be good but that's not really in my hobbies at the moment so I can't comment. Although one of the coolest events we've ever done was at a spa village, where they have a lot of hot tubs, cold plunges and saunas so that's another cool event to host that's different from anything alcohol related. I've actually put my dating life on hold to work on freeing myself financially and scaling my business. I lived in Toronto and got to the point where I could date decently but the dating life I desire requires way more cashflow than I have now. I aim to take my business fully online and travelling the world with multiple beautiful women before I settle down in somewhere nice that I haven't decided yet. I'm very excited to actualize both my business and dating life and wish the same for you all. God bless and much love.

I also have diagnosed ADHD, you just have victim thinking that's different. Very deadly but fortunately very curable. Very common in non conformist circles and hippie circles which is why I dislike them. Highly recommend the pomodoro method if you want to be productive. I'm not the top business owner in the world but I manage to get a decent amount of stuff done in 20 min increments in between anime and other hobbies throughout the day. What do you mean communism as a life purpose? Like you do nothing and other people provide for you? Thankfully for you you are immensely blessed to be living in 2026 and thus that's an actual possibility for your life. Maybe the AI overlords will decide to take care of you. Alysa Liu looks stunning, she's peak conformity what do you mean literally an olympic athlete dedicated her life to her craft and representing team USA in olympics. She's climbed at the top of the system through hard work. Plenty of girls that die their hair and have piercings that don't do shit with their life and complain all day, that's more the stereotype that I would personally recommend staying away from.
