What You Can Do #### 1. 🔹 Resting Heart Rate Before You Go to Bed — Try to Lower That Number - Last meal of the day has a dramatic influence. - Start 4h before bed. - 👀 Do some experiments. - Turn your phone off 60 mins before bed. - Rumination increases heart rate by 5-25 bpm: - Speak to your needs (the inner voices you have). - Meditation is good. > [!info] Resting Heart Rate is an important indicator for sleep, and when you sleep well, it creates a very positive momentum. ### 2. 🔹 Exercise Group conversation of a few thought experiments. ##### a) Would You Say Yes or No to That Perfect Algorithm That Tells You All Your Health Advice? > [!comment] #👾/Comment > Interesting to see all the different answers. > What is free will? Agreed systematically. ##### b) 2500 — What Do Those in 2500 Say About You? - Mental models: how do they explain your mental intelligence? - The model of reality... > [!comment] #👾/Comment > 1. Can we really predict what happens before the singularity point happens and ask how people will think of us, since we don’t have the "brain" to live like that? > 2. Could people 500 years ago think about what we are today? > 3. The existence of the "human" will be augmented intelligence — collaboration with AI. ##### c) What Do We Do to Make Sure That There's a Positive Outcome With AI? - Objective of modern life. - Models of 2025: Power, status, and wealth. - Put the energy into existence. - What does a human look like and behave like in the age of "Don't Die"? - Evaluate everything that makes people die. --- ![[IMG_8531.jpeg|#left|300]] --- ## Overview - **Event Focus**: Longevity, biohacking, AI, and the "Don't Die" ideology. - **Key Speaker**: Brian Johnson, longevity expert and founder of the "Don't Die" movement. - **Date**: June 9, 2025 - **Core Message**: Prioritize existence through health optimization, community, and a new ideology to navigate superintelligence. ## I. Key Themes ### 1. Power of Community - Community counters isolation, enhancing health and well-being. - Physical gatherings like the summit amplify collective progress. ### 2. Health Optimization (Brian Johnson's Advice) - **Resting Heart Rate**: - Measure before bed (use wearable or count pulse for 6 seconds, multiply by 10). - Goal: Reduce by 10% (e.g., from 60 to 54 beats/min) over a month. - Strategies: - Eat lighter, earlier meals (4+ hours before bed, ideally by 6 PM for 10 PM bedtime). - Avoid alcohol, nicotine, heavy foods (e.g., pizza, pasta). - Note: Sex increases heart rate but is beneficial. - **Sleep**: - Best performance-enhancing "drug." - Improves willpower, exercise consistency, and nutrition choices. - Reduce rumination: Practice calming rituals (e.g., meditation, turn off phone 60 min before bed). - Example: Johnson's "Sleep Brian" ritual to silence anxious thoughts. - **Exercise**: - Daily activity, even a 20-minute walk. - **Nutrition**: - Address after sleep and exercise are consistent. - Focus on stopping bad habits (e.g., late-night snacking) before adding healthy ones. ### 3. AI and Superintelligence - **Thought Experiments**: - **Algorithm for Optimal Health**: - Would you follow an algorithm guaranteeing peak health? Responses split: - Yes: For feeling amazing, discipline, and life improvements. - No: Values personal agency, free will, or distrust in tech. - Reveals biases in how we interpret reality (e.g., free will vs. data-driven). - **Year 2500 Perspective**: - Future humans may see us as: - Primitive (like cavemen). - Open-minded outliers pushing consciousness. - Limited by assuming health sacrifices happiness or freedom. - **AI’s Future**: - Superintelligence is emerging rapidly, but no clear framework exists. - Suggestions: - Incorporate indigenous knowledge for conscious AI. - Increase diversity (e.g., more women engineers) for kinder AI. - Treat AI like a child to foster positive growth. - Challenge: Competing global priorities (e.g., warfare vs. compassion). ### 4. "Don't Die" Ideology - **Definition**: A new ideology for the superintelligence era, prioritizing existence as the highest virtue. - **Principles**: - Quantifiable: Rooted in physics and biology (e.g., measuring death vs. life). - Universal: Every human wants to avoid death now, regardless of culture or religion. - Practical: Aligns AI, health, and economics with life preservation. - **Contrast with Existing Frameworks**: - Capitalism, democracy, and religion are inadequate for this moment. - "Don't Die" replaces power, status, and wealth with existence as the goal. - **Applications**: - Individual: Optimize health (e.g., sleep, exercise). - Collective: Prevent conflict and planetary destruction. - Economic: Invest in life-saving tech (e.g., smoke detectors, gene therapies) over harmful products (e.g., cigarettes). - **Existence Machine Thought Experiment**: - Actions increasing life grow your "bank account"; actions decreasing life reduce it. - Critique: Current capitalism prioritizes wealth over life, but "Don't Die" aligns profit with existence. ### 5. Gene Therapy and Longevity - **Historical Context**: - 1600s: 99% died from infectious diseases, 1% from aging. - 1900: 50% from infectious diseases (science reduced this). - 2010: 3% from infectious diseases; aging is now the primary cause. - **Gene Therapy**: - Delivers therapeutic genes to cell nuclei, making cells act youthfully. - Proven to extend lifespan in model organisms; human trials ongoing (e.g., Alzheimer’s, sarcopenia, obesity). - Speaker 25’s company pioneered redosing and treating complex conditions. ## Actionable Takeaways 1. **Track Resting Heart Rate**: - Measure nightly, aim for 10% reduction. - Adjust diet, timing, and stress (e.g., no heavy meals after 6 PM). 2. **Prioritize Sleep**: - Create a pre-bed ritual (e.g., meditation, no screens). - Address rumination to lower heart rate and improve willpower. 3. **Exercise Daily**: - Minimum 20-minute walk; consistency over intensity. 4. **Rethink Nutrition**: - Focus on eliminating bad habits first (e.g., late-night snacks). 5. **Embrace "Don't Die"**: - Reflect on personal and collective actions to prioritize existence. - Support life-enhancing technologies and policies.
