This Past Weekend w/ Theo Von
#644 - Bryan Johnson

But then once you get in there and you kind of play around for a while, you don't, you lose that sensitivity and you feel normal again.

This Past Weekend w/ Theo Von
#644 - Bryan Johnson

But yeah, it's, I think, and so what's been resonating is I've been, so I posted this on social.

This Past Weekend w/ Theo Von
#644 - Bryan Johnson

I said, because a lot of people think that social media is like a vice or like a, you know, a bad habit.

This Past Weekend w/ Theo Von
#644 - Bryan Johnson

But I reframed it and said, actually, I think it's pollution.

This Past Weekend w/ Theo Von
#644 - Bryan Johnson

It's like microplastics or lead in the pipes or asbestos in the wall or like, you know, lead in the gasoline.

This Past Weekend w/ Theo Von
#644 - Bryan Johnson

I think it really is like a societal pollution.

This Past Weekend w/ Theo Von
#644 - Bryan Johnson

It accumulates in the body.

This Past Weekend w/ Theo Von
#644 - Bryan Johnson

It creates low-grade inflammation.

This Past Weekend w/ Theo Von
#644 - Bryan Johnson

And I've been sharing this.

This Past Weekend w/ Theo Von
#644 - Bryan Johnson

So many people are like, I feel this.

This Past Weekend w/ Theo Von
#644 - Bryan Johnson

But the problem is you can't, like telling someone to turn it off is like telling someone to not breathe coal smoke in London in the 19th century.

This Past Weekend w/ Theo Von
#644 - Bryan Johnson

Or if there's water pollution, the solution for water pollution in London in the 19th century was not to say don't drink water.

This Past Weekend w/ Theo Von
#644 - Bryan Johnson

It was to filter the water.

This Past Weekend w/ Theo Von

So I think the solution here is, I propose this, that if people could build AI to basically create a layer of protection between me and the internet, me and the social feed, extract out all the performative metrics, extract out all the garbage, all the slop, and give me the goodness.

This Past Weekend w/ Theo Von
#644 - Bryan Johnson

But I want someone to, it would be cool if someone could build,

This Past Weekend w/ Theo Von

social media into a longevity therapy versus like a, actually having a cigarette.

This Past Weekend w/ Theo Von
#644 - Bryan Johnson

Like help me when I engage with it.
