Key Insights on Energy

AI makes this Cold War more dangerous and unpredictable than the first one, despite nuclear weapons still existing

  • Current geopolitical problems are minor compared to threats like Hitler in the 1930s or nuclear standoffs during Cold War I
  • Ancestral perspective: humans evolved with DC energy from earth and consistent sunlight, not pulsed AC electricity and chaotic waveforms
  • China's trade vulnerability: 80% of its oil passes through the Malacca Strait chokepoint, driving tens of billions in spending to secure overland routes
  • Scientists working on alternative energy and advanced materials have mysteriously disappeared or died, with timing coinciding suspiciously with UFO disclosure efforts
  • The era of AI scaling is ending - future models need to be "much more energy efficient and data efficient" like humans
  • Delta Airlines reports 'eight of top 10 sales days in history this quarter' with bookings up 25% year-over-year despite oil price spikes
  • Melanotan raises energy and libido dramatically but skin color changes can be permanent - 'not for vacation use'
