We're gonna build a cultural movement around AI maximalism. So there's doomerism, which I've been talking about. There's accelerationism, which was the which which was the answer to doomerism. So doomerism said it's dangerous. Shut it all down. Acceleration accelerationism said, no. It's not. Go faster. Right? And so, in terms of other cultural movements, Brian Johnson's don't die movement, I think, dovetails nicely with an AI maximalist movement. Because guess what? One of the things that Brian Johnson has used to form his movement is AI. He's like, if the AI can make better health decisions than I can, I'm gonna do what the AI says. That was literally, like, at the very beginning of his movement before it was called Don't Die because I've been following him for a while. Like, he's popped up on my radar because he's because he was adjacent to the AI space. And so it's like, alright. So we have the Neo Luddites, we have the Doomers, we have the Accelerationists, and and now we have the maximalist, which is AI should just be everywhere. AI should should saturate everything in your life, and not just in your life, but also in all of society. Not all of it's gonna work, but we need to try. And by by creating that narrative by by just saying, I'm an AI maximalist. That's something you can identify as. Right? Because I never really identified as an accelerationist because, like, you know, they're a little bit culty and the doomers are a little bit culty and the AI safety people are a little bit culty. Everyone's a little bit culty. Right? Brian Johnson is a little bit culty. So, like, I'm just like, heck with it. I'll make my own cult. AI maximalist. There you go. Just make your own cult. Right? That's just that's pretty fun. Right? That can be pretty easy.

I think AI is gonna be as ubiquitous ubiquitous as, electricity. You know? I I I don't see why it wouldn't be. If AI can do so many things right now, imagine what it will be able to do next year. You know? Don't even think about five years from now. Like, just think about next year. Next year is gonna be nuts. Like, we thought 2023 was crazy. We thought 2024 was crazy. Like, dude, 2025. Like, we're barely a quarter into 2025, and AI just continues to take over. I think this is leading up to the singularity. I think this is leading up to, you know, humans will now this is now this is interesting. Humans will or, like, I guess, a select few of humans will give up their humanness for this technology. And I wanna be clear that that is not what I'm advocating for. I'm definitely on the side of humans. I'm on the side of of the human spirit, and to help people embody their pure humanness.

The point of AI maximalism is that you wanna saturate all domains with AI as much as possible. Basically, think about electricity, like, you we're not we're not saying, oh, electricity needs to be regulated. It needs to be, you know, there's only certain places that you can use it. It shouldn't it should only be used, in in hospitals, but not in libraries or schools. Like, that would be really absurd. And that's really kind of the level of discourse that's happening right now is people like, well, I don't know. AI, maybe we shouldn't use it in government. Maybe we shouldn't use it in schools. Maybe we shouldn't use it in entertainment, which in in the long view of history is gonna seem like a really stupid, like, conversation. And so when you compare it to technologies like, I don't know, computers or electronics or electricity itself, there's basically no limit. So why don't we just cut to the chase and say that AI will eventually be everywhere. So why don't we just go ahead and make that the official policy?
