How to Win the Meme War I had a fascinating conversation with Brett Hall (Brett Hall), Carlos De la Guardia (Carlos De la Guardia), and Paul (PF Jung) in Austin, Texas. We explored the intersections of ideas from Karl Popper, David Deutsch, Jordan Peterson, and Bret Weinstein, focusing on epistemology, memetic warfare, and the role of rational and anti-rational memes in shaping culture. Paul shared his project on winning the "meme war" through radical enlightened centrism, while we discussed street epistemology, the evolution of ideas, and the balance between tradition and progress. From the wisdom encoded in religions to the potential of transhumanism, this conversation is a deep dive into how we create, critique, and spread ideas for a flourishing society. Chapters: 0:00 Intros 6:52 Best Way to Spread Memes? 23:33 Is Religion a Mind Virus? 33:12 Do We Need Some Dogma? 51:59 Do We Believe What We Act Out? 57:41 How to Get Rapid & Stable Change? 1:15:39 Is Monogamy a Good Dogma? 1:27:41 Making Progress vs Game-Playing 1:34:43 Can We Download a Human Mind? 1:51:12 Should We Want to Live Forever? 1:59:10 What Should We Be Directing Our Attention to? 2:06:40 Wrap Up

"Aging is the process of a complex system slowly falling into its chaotic disequilibrium. And it's not like evolution necessarily even set a lifespan for us. It is merely the result of, once the system has been established, how long its intrinsic property stayed ordered before it became disordered." I’m excited to share my conversation with Jacob Kimmel of NewLimit. Every species who has ever lived has one shared certainty: we’ll age, decay, and die. Jacob and his team are among the small group of people on earth with the expertise and funding to work on this problem. We talked about why we age, whether cellular aging can actually be reversed, how evolution shaped our lifespan and our peaks, and how AI is fundamentally changing the next era of science. Recorded at New Limit’s HQ in South San Francisco.

New episode with Dr. Konrad Kording (Kording Lab 🦖), professor of bioengineering and neuroscience at the University of Pennsylvania (Penn) and co-director of CIFAR's Learning in Machines & Brains program (CIFAR). Konrad works at the intersection of causality, machine learning, and neuroscience, building rigorous methods for causal reasoning when experiments aren't possible — and challenging how researchers interpret neural data and build AI. Konrad argues the most promising path to understanding how the brain works is to read the brain’s wiring directly, down to the molecular detail of each connection, and to build compilers and simulations to understand the brain’s computation directly. In this episode we go deep into how neurons work, how neurons wire together, and how organic and artificial neural networks differ. We discuss why organic neurons are doing much more; how a model of a single organic neuron can solve MNIST — computing more like a 3-layer artificial neural network; how the brain might learn by solving credit assignment with only local signals; how to approximate backprop without a global algorithm; why AI and humans are intelligent along different dimensions; why Konrad isn’t very worried about AI replacing us; economic models of intelligence and physical work; and much more. Konrad is a brilliant, contrarian thinker who explains complex concepts very intuitively. It is a solid computational neuroscience primer. I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did!

This one was personal in a way I didn’t expect. I sat down with Vivek Ramaswamy —not just to talk politics—but to talk about faith, family, and what drives him as a man. We got into what it was like growing up as the child of Indian immigrants, how his faith shapes the way he sees the world, and why he’s more interested in speaking the truth than winning approval. (00:06:54) – Milwaukee Debate (00:14:25) – What Vivek Learned from His Presidential Campaign (00:18:42) – Who Is Vivek? (00:27:20) – Apoorva Ramaswamy (00:31:37) – Breaking News! (00:34:44) – Having Children (00:38:54) – Vivek’s Parents (00:42:53) – What Vivek Has Done by Age 40 (01:01:10) – Top 3 Priorities as Governor of Ohio (01:04:57) – DOGE (01:11:24) – Epstein Files (01:19:32) – Vivek in 10 Years

Aidan Gomez (Aidan Gomez) is a computer scientist, co-author of the seminal paper ‘Attention Is All You Need,’ and the CEO of Cohere. In this episode, we discussed his upbringing in the cabin his grandfather built in Codrington, a small town North of Brighton, and the values that were instilled in him through his family. We explored his path from Codrington to his undergraduate studies at the University of Toronto, emailing Geoffrey Hinton, and joining Google Brain where he co-wrote the paper on transformers. We discussed how he met his co-founders Ivan Zhang and Nick Frosst, and his insights on what it means to build a meaningful, successful company in Canada. Aidan shares his conviction about what is at stake — for Canada and for the world at large. This is a conversation about family, values, and what it means to live with conviction. The Other Stuff is hosted by internetVin — filmmaker, entrepreneur, and possibly the most curious man on Earth. Produced by New.

.Naval: You have a beautiful definition of knowledge, which most people don’t even try to tackle, about how knowledge perpetuates itself in the environment. You gave some really good examples. One was around genes. Successful, highly adapted genes contain a lot of knowledge and can cause themselves to be replicated because they’re survivors. In the same way, knowledge itself is a survivor, in that if you transmit to me the knowledge of how to build a computer, it’s an incredibly useful thing. I’m going to build more and more computers and that knowledge will be passed on. Your underlying point that you repeated here was if you want to understand the physical universe you have to understand knowledge, because it is the thing that over time takes over and changes more and more the universe—more than almost anything else. You have to understand all the explanations behind it. You can’t just say “particle collisions” because that explains everything, so it explains nothing. It’s not a useful level to operate at. Therefore, the things that create knowledge are uniquely influential in the universe. And as far as we know, there are only two systems that create knowledge. There’s evolution and there are humans. But is there a difference even between these two forms of knowledge creation, between evolution and between humans? David Deutsch: Yes. I have argued that the human way of creating knowledge is the ultimate one, that there aren’t any more powerful ones than that. This is the argument against the supernatural. Assuming that there is a form of knowledge creation that’s more powerful than ours is equivalent to invoking the supernatural, which is therefore a bad explanation—as invoking the supernatural always is. The difference between biological evolution and human creative thought is that biological evolution is inherently limited in its range. That’s because biological evolution has no foresight. It can’t see a problem and conjecture a solution. Whenever biological evolution produces a solution to something, it’s always before natural selection has even begun. This is Charles Darwin’s insight. This is the difference between Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution and the other theories of evolution that had been around for a century or more before that, including Charles Darwin’s grandfather and Lamarck. The thing they didn’t get is that the creation of knowledge in evolution begins before. That means that biological evolution can’t reach places that are not reachable by successive improvements, each of which allows a viable organism to exist. Creationists say that biological evolution has, in fact, reached things that are not reachable by incremental steps, each of which is a viable organism. They’re factually mistaken. The thing which they have in mind is the idea of a creator who can imagine things that don’t exist and who can create an idea that is not the culmination of a whole load of viable things. A thinking being can create something that’s a culmination of a whole load of non-viable things. Explanatory creativity makes humans unique Out of all the billions and billions of species that have ever existed, none of them has ever made a campfire, even though many of them would’ve been helped by having the genetic capacity to make campfires. The reason it didn’t happen in the biosphere is that there is no such thing as making a partially functional campfire; whereas there is, for example, with making hot water. The bombardier beetles squirt boiling water at their enemies. You can easily see that just squirting cold water at your enemies is not totally unhelpful. Then making it a bit hotter and a bit hotter. Squirting boiling water no doubt required many adaptations to make sure the beetle didn’t boil itself while it was making this boiling water. That happened because there was a sequence of steps in between, all of which were useful. But with campfires, it’s very hard to see how that could happen. Humans have explanatory creativity. Once you have that, you can get to the moon. You can cause asteroids which are heading towards the earth to turn around and go away. Perhaps no other planet in the universe has that power, and it has it only because of the presence of explanatory creativity on it.

Squirting boiling water no doubt required many adaptations to make sure the beetle didn’t boil itself while it was making this boiling water. That happened because there was a sequence of steps in between, all of which were useful. But with campfires, it’s very hard to see how that could happen. Humans have explanatory creativity. Once you have that, you can get to the moon. You can cause asteroids which are heading towards the earth to turn around and go away. Perhaps no other planet in the universe has that power, and it has it only because of the presence of explanatory creativity on it.

Is it time to quantize time? Everything is quantum in quantum mechanics... almost. Time remains a mysterious flowing quantity slotted in to the equations. Surprisingly, there's a model for making time quantum, with a radical consequence: the overall universe is timeless. How is it possible to experience a flow of time in a timeless universe?! Find out in my latest episode of the Quantum Foundations Podcast with Simone Rijavec, Simone Rijavec! We discuss the Page-Wootters model for the emergence of time in quantum theory, and get an insight into Simone's research on the topic. Here's how physicists are solving the problem of time in quantum theory, explained in 60 minutes: 00:00 Coming Up 00:59 Intro 01:37 Simone's journey into quantum 05:04 The problem of time in quantum theory 07:07 Relational approach to time 11:12 Quantum measurement and time 17:53 Stationary universe and the Wheeler-DeWitt equation 30:18 Multiverse & block universe 31:11 How is time flowing? 34:20 Problems with wave-function collapse 36:11 What are clocks? 37:48 Resolution of time-steps 41:47 Debates on the timeless approach 45:08 Interactions with clocks 51:05 Recap 57:39 Making time fully quantum 1:00:43 Behind the Scenes

Levin's new episode "Stewarding the Flame" is out just now :) The focus: At the dawn of AGI, how can we make sure that the intelligences we're conjuring will add to a FLOURISHING of the process-of-life, rather than a brute optimizer that squashes life? As we get closer to superintelligence few topics are more pressing, and few people are thinking as deeply about the nature of life and intelligence as Levin. Big takeaways: -- Humans and non-human life will have to change if it wants to persist, this happens at every scale of the living process -- There is a much wider state-space of minds that we don't understand, but we should have a better grip on how intelligence works / comes into being before we build an AGI we don't control (because it might not carry the self-creating flame of life, it might be a brute optimizer) -- Levin is overall optimistic that the process of evolution and expanding life (even in forms that we don't understand today as "life" in a bio sense) will most likely continue to bubble up and continue to flourish in forms beyond us (i.e. the process is robust, and we'd REALLY have to mess something up to knock that trajectory off course) Some of the most important parts of this episode: 00:13:17 - Why MUST you transform if you wish to persist? 00:18:50 - Where does the self-preserving, self-expanding impulse "come from" in life? 00:33:30 - What do we need to understand better in order to make AGI "go well" (not just for how it treats humans, but for its ability to expand flourishing intelligence into the future)? 00:48:33 - [A deep-dive into the Flame paradigm (the process-of-life), and the Torch paradigm (pretending homo sapiens sapiens can/should rule all possible futures in a static hominid form).] There's a TON more in here, but this is a start. I sincerely hope you enjoy this episode with Mike!

Is this the 2ND SHOOTER we've been looking for? Another very plausible explanation that fills in the gaps to complete the puzzle of the 2 shooter theory. Something still tells me that the "entrance wound" is still really an "EXIT WOUND." The FBI did say they did NOT count out the possibility of a second shooter. You have to watch the video for the full context and explanation. This gentleman does a fantastic job. The idea is to put out as much information as possible so we can comb through EVERYTHING and confirm or disprove the theories and evidence and get to the bottom of this, and find Charlie's shooter. I want to hear what you think below. We need to keep looking for the TRUTH, and we can't stop until we find it.

In this episode Bret Weinstein asks Sonia Elijah, investigative journalist, what she sees as parallel between 9/11 and 3/11. "Yes. Essentially, what I see as a parallel is that you have a major disruptive event that leads to—obviously—fear, understandably. But out of that fear, you have massively expanded powers of the state. And it’s sort of this recurring pattern that I see. So I see 3/11, which is March 11th, 2020. That is the day the World Health Organization declared COVID to be a pandemic.

The more I learn about DNA and the inner workings of our cells, the more I’m convinced that there is a Creator/Force/God. You can call it what you want but to think it’s all just “evolution”, the result of natural selection, seems absolutely absurd to me. I am not saying evolution isn’t real but I am saying that our understanding about the nature of our reality and where we come from is sorely lacking. We like to tell ourselves the “we know the truth”, but the correct answer is that we really don’t know at all. Human origins is the mystery of all mysteries and our arrogance instead of reverence for that mystery is a big reason why evil has gained such a foothold in our world in my opinion. What do you think? Evolution explains it or something else is at play? I don’t claim to know the truth but instinctually feel our explanations are fundamentally flawed. Watch this stunning animation that explains how our DNA is tightly packed up and tell me you are not left with a sense of wonder for the mysterious nature of it all.
