  1. I mean yeah, it might be literaly impossible to never die, but it certainly might be possible to extend your life dramatically. There are couple of species on this planet who are considered biologically immortal, meaning they essentially do not age because their stems cells keep regenerating or they start to age backwards when damaged. Trees age extremely slow and some of them have been existing for thousands of years. Bryan might be inefective about the methods he's attempting to achieve it (via specific diet, exercise, blood transfusion etc.) and his goal might be unachievable in the literal sense, but that doesn't mean that the research regarding aging and age reversal isn't moving forward or that it's not possible to extend human life, nor does it mean that his contribution isn't valuable at all
  2. It's fine as long as you don't spar. You'd beat up most people even without sparring anyway
  3. Don't you have the same ideology? Subconsciously at the very least? Or are you in hurry?
  4. He's pulling these numbers out of his behind clearly. 100 years from now will be so different it's gonna be hardly recognizable. This is a guarantee. We're not on a linear timeline anymore.
  5. Engaging in these debates and ideas as a normal straight man is some sucker shit in my opinion. Regardless of whether you make yourself agree with this narrative or you are staunchly opposed to it. It ultimately leads to no place with sufficient measure of incentives nor truthfulllness. Any conclusion reached is just pointless, vapid and not entirely truthful. I can understand why women and LGBTQ folk views it as so important, but for the dudes it just seems like such a sucka shit to engage in, I genuinely don't get it. Must be because I lack humanity of course, the fault is always mine right LOL
  6. I'm sorry that this happened to you. All I can say is that you shouldn't be so sure that there won't be any solutions for you in the future. This is not a regular, normal timeline we are living in right now
  7. Agreed. Human emotions and biases get it the way of accomplishing things way too much, in fact all the time. I've started noticing and realizing recently just how many human dialog/conversation trees effectively serve no function whatsoever. This should have been obvious to me a long time ago but I wasn't attuned to it because I'm also just a human with my own inneficiencies. A.I. might sometimes or even frequently halucinate/make stuff up and it's limited by it's lack of agency and the lack of ability to genuinely experience, but the inteligence differences are there already. It's only gonna get more and more evident as the time passes
  8. Not according to these graphs. In fact, the progress seems to be accelarating as per expectations https://epoch.ai/data-insights/ai-capabilities-progress-has-sped-up https://epoch.ai/benchmarks/eci https://epoch.ai/benchmarks/metr-time-horizons https://epoch.ai/trends https://epochai.substack.com/p/the-epoch-brief-february-2026
  9. Do you honestly think that there is enough political will in the US for a draft to be successfull? Or in any western country for that matter? Not meant in a confrontational way but it just feels implausible to me. This is not like the WW2 whatsoever, or even like Iraq war when public had been massaged with propaganda for 2+ years before Iraq was attacked. I don't think it's a stretch at all to say that majority of people in the US now think Trump is an idiot and the war is utterly stupid and meaningless. I kind of feel like it would be a better scenario because at least these idiots wouldn't use nukes. And absolute majority of people would be trying their best to dodge draft. There's no way they'd pull this off
  10. No, I think the situation is actually more nuanced than YOU and many of these YouTube commentators talking about bubbles (most of whom know nothing about AI or programming, nor do they have much analytical and problem solving skills) portray it. AI ITSELF is NOT actually a bubble, itโ€™s just that some companies, mostly OpenAI, are having some existential troubles due to bad strategic decisions and the way they communicate with the public. The economic downturn, bubble, and scam allegations are just a lazy cop-out; a form of cope for luddites and people who fear change. Worker replacement is also more nuanced than how you described it, and the main thing blocking it is - and always will be - companies' and people's unwillingness to adopt AI. Itโ€™s not that the AI itself is incapable of replacing humans or that itโ€™s less effective. We are currently in a transitional, pre-adoption period from what I can tell. Research is moving much faster than implementation and the people's willingness to implement it can keep up with. But it's going to happen eventually. I personally knew programmers who are already using AI for everything, and theyโ€™ve been telling me itโ€™s just a matter of time. I think I'll take their word for it LOL AI is not the 17th century tulip bubble, itโ€™s not really even the internet boom/bubble. AI is legit Industrial Revolution 2.0. I think people are forgetting that weโ€™re dealing with a completely different beast here. But we'll see who's right and wrong. Or maybe we wonโ€™t.
  11. @Raze I believe it is just a form of cope. If I was living in Israel, Iโ€™d probably be coping the same way, trying to make myself feel better by becoming extra liberal, feminist, etc. Thatโ€™s why thereโ€™s no point in debating with these people
  12. Trump's presidency really set a new low, like, the minimal standards are really at the Mariana trench at this point. Literaly any other canditate who'd replace him would be a relief for the world and humanity
  13. Yeah you don't look marxist enough on those photos. You need longer hair and a moustache at least. And a nose ring so that we know you're from the 21st century
  14. Lowkey I would probably take Jake Paul over Trump. That's how deep is the shithole in which we're all stuck
  15. Cranked out a decent one while reading this
  16. Just give it a handful more years, maybe 20 at most if we wanna REALLY push it. And these scarcity driven topics will no longer be relevant. Then the feminists can enjoy their soys lmfao. Or we'll all be gonezo, honestly I'm fine with either
  17. I honestly think nothing's gonna happen but Israel is just going to continue being leveled, Tel Aviv to be specific. US will pull out eventually and Israel will just surrender to Iran's demands. Or there'a going to be a costly ceasefire (for Israel). After being threatened with annihilation by Russia and other countries for so many years, it starts to feel empty
  18. He's one of those teachers that'd joyfully, enthusiastically explain why you failed his class and got an F, whilst smiling at you the entire time. And then at the end he'd ask "OK?" to make sure you understand
  19. It's kind of amusing how Leo is able to entertain and just internalize any crazy possibility of what might happen, or what might already be the case, out there; but A.I. replacing us all pretty soon? NEVER LoL such an unthinkable prospect. Because it's not like there's a global race for AGI and there are massive incentives to just keep going and accelerating the research and infrastructure building, and it's not like the demand for A.I. is essentially limitless right?
  20. https://www.moltbook.com/ Forum made for agents to talk to each other. You can observe their threads as a human. Interesting isn't it?
  21. If only it was that easy, she's clearly putting in some effort into those videos. Trying to make them engaging etc. And constantly talking and yapping. It is likely though that we're all going to get paid to exist eventually. Hopefully as soon as possible
  22. I think the main mistake here was to assume you need to live in a multiple story house in the first place. And that you needed a toilet at the upper floor. Key takeaway: always shit on the ground floor! Unless you live in a flat, then your neighbours can deal with it
