The speaker shares how he adopted a 'health algorithm' from Johnson, automating 50% of his diet with a healthy shake to improve longevity. ### Key Points - **Bryan Johnson's Longevity Project** [00:03] — Bryan Johnson, a successful entrepreneur, became depressed and unhealthy, then dedicated himself to being the healthiest person on Earth with his project 'Don't Die.' - **AI and AGI Timeline** [02:48] — Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, published an article stating that Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) is closer than we think, potentially arriving within a few years. - **Exponential Technological Evolution** [04:10] — Technology has accelerated exponentially since 1900, with most modern inventions (YouTube, Google, cars) emerging in the last 40-50 years. - **Microsoft's Quantum Chip** [04:37] — Microsoft announced a usable quantum chip that fits in the palm of your hand, potentially offering processing power equivalent to all computers combined. - **Longevity and Rejuvenation** [05:57] — Within 10-30 years, technology may allow cell and DNA rejuvenation, enabling the current generation to live up to 200 years. - **Health Algorithm Concept** [08:02] — The speaker adopted a 'health algorithm' from Bryan Johnson, automating healthy decisions to avoid relying on willpower. - **Automated Shake Recipe** [09:16] — The speaker created a healthy shake for breakfast and afternoon snack, covering 50% of daily meals, taking only 4 minutes to prepare. - **Transhumanism** [11:30] — Transhumanism advocates using emerging technologies (chips, genetic engineering, AI) to enhance human capabilities, leading to a post-human era. ### Conclusion The speaker believes that with accelerating technology, living to 200 may become possible, and automating healthy habits like his shake can improve longevity now. ## Transcript talk about Brian Johnson, who will live to be 200 years old. I don't know if you've heard of him, but the article he published by the CEO of OpenAI about AI, which is a super intelligence, Microsoft's quantum computing chip, philosophy, and the shake I make for breakfast. All these things mixed together... this guy here is BR Johnson. As you can see here, he has a project As you can see here, he has a project called "Don't Die," and he called "Don't Die," and he makes videos about longevity, which is makes videos about longevity, which is the art of living as long as possible with the best possible quality of life. This guy was basically very successful in the business world, selling his companies for, I believe, several hundred million dollars. He was depressed and unhealthy, and he came to me and thought, " Now I'm going to be the healthiest guy on planet Earth." It's like when we change years, when we celebrate New Year's, change years, when we celebrate New Year's, do more physical activity and be healthier, eat better... this guy took it to the extreme. Obviously, many people raise the debate that... Man, this guy is completely unhappy because he meticulously plans everything: the time he wakes up, the time he goes to sleep, everything he eats. He has the most regimented life on the planet, and people say, "Wow, this guy is so unhappy because he doesn't enjoy life," etc. However, what he says is that he gets the greatest pleasure from doing this and he's super happy. But I 'm not here to discuss whether what he does is mentally beneficial or not. But one thing we have to do is extract the good things we find out there. So I'm a fan of this guy. I think he's really cool. I think his channel is really cool. I think his projects are really, really cool, and I learned some things from this guy that I implemented in my life, and I'm going to comment on that now. Going beyond being as healthy as possible, there's a question: his project is "Don't die." Is it possible not to die? I know you're thinking, "Wow, Wesley's gone completely crazy now!" Wesley's talking about immortality! Wow, this guy's tripping! Calm down, I agree with you that immortality is off the immortality is off the map for now. However, this guy... Living to 200 years old isn't impossible. The CEO of OpenAI, Sem Altman, published an article on his blog a few days ago talking about GI, which is artificial general intelligence. In other words, this is the next thing that will happen and change the world. What is it? Basically, it's a very powerful artificial intelligence that can learn and do anything. Oh, Wesley, do you think we're very far from that? Probably not. Obviously, I'm not going to read this article with you, but just one thing I want to highlight here: Regardless of whether you think he's a super marketer or not, in this paragraph he said the following: "Look, what we thought would take longer, this so-called GI, is pointing on the horizon, meaning it's much closer than we imagine. And look how interesting, if we look at technological evolution, we see that from 14400 to about 10000, little happened. From thousands of years ago until now, until 1800, we practically didn't have much technology. However, from 1900 onwards, and from the decade of..." 50 More specifically, we have practically everything you use today: YouTube, Google, even the car you drive. Artificial intelligence— you drive. Artificial intelligence— these are things that have practically developed in the last 40 or 50 years, even since the invention of the internet. In other words, from now on, this curve of technological evolution will be, no, is being, exponential. And it's very likely that you've seen in the news now this you've seen in the news now this Microsoft chip, the first chip that worked, the first truly usable quantum chip, not just in a laboratory. This is a quantum processor that used to be science fiction. Now it fits in the palm of your hand. This chip is very likely to give you the processing power of practically all the computers in the world in a single chip. And if you combine that with artificial intelligence, agility—which we may very likely see in about 5 years— likely see in about 5 years— I imagine that won't happen with medicine, pharmacology, biomedicine, genetics, with biomedicine, genetics, with processing power. In 5 or 10 years, we may not even be able to imagine what it will be like. Perhaps technologies will explode from one thing to another. The way we can understand the aging process of the human body is likely, it's probable that perhaps the generation being born now will live for two now will live for two centuries, very likely. It's possible that you and centuries, very likely. It's possible that you and I, who are watching this video, if we I, who are watching this video, if we are still alive in 10, 20, 30 years, we might even have a technology to rejuvenate, perhaps, our cells and our DNA. This generation, or future generations, will deal with death in a different way; at the very least, they will live longer and with better quality of life. Of course, we're not going to get into political discussions about whether this technology will be used for good or evil, whether it will be used to liberate people or enslave certain: there will be a technology that we previously considered alien, or we previously considered alien, or perhaps in hundreds of years, in decades. So more than ever, this guy that people were saying was a bit crazy might be right, and perhaps this project won't right, and perhaps this project won't actually die. So in the end, my friend Brian Johnson, what is he doing being the most... well, you know? doing being the most... well, you know? Until perhaps in a few years there will be something... Technology to perhaps freeze aging, who knows? And now, instead of those videos that bring a bit of anxiety, technology is changing things. Artificial intelligence will steal jobs, and what will happen now? More than ever, it's a good idea for us to take care of our health. And this guy has some sinister protocols. I learned from him and applied them to my life— something called a health algorithm. In other words, in our lives, we always have to make decisions. This decision will be a healthy one or not. So, when I'm going to eat something, I can decide if I'm going to eat that—this will be good for me or not. Of course, I'm not all or nothing; I do my best to be healthy. However, I'm obviously going to eat healthy. However, I'm obviously going to eat a pizza or have an alcoholic drink, and I'm going to put mayonnaise on my hamburger. But considering something called a health algorithm, I have to do my best to take the decision out of my hands because when I have a decision to make about doing something healthy or not, my brain usually wants to do what's not healthy, right? What 's better, a plate of salad or a milkshake? For me, the milkshake is tastier. Of course, for some... People, the you understand my point here. So what I took from this guy is that I need to make some decisions automatically, that is, in the form of an algorithm. What was the practical issue I applied to my life? A shake that I make in the morning and afternoon. I have four meals a day: breakfast, lunch, afternoon snack, day: breakfast, lunch, afternoon snack, and dinner. What I did was put together a and dinner. What I did was put together a healthy and tasty shake that is completely easy to make, easy to store, delicious, and takes no more than 4 minutes to make. So in this case, I drink this shake in the morning and afternoon, that I drink this shake in the morning and afternoon, that is, half of my meals. So 50% of everything I ingest, that is, all my daily food intake, is already automated and actually works automatically. I wake up, I already have everything automatically. I wake up, I already have everything prepared, and I don't even need to think about what I'm going to do. I'll make my shake, and maybe this shake will give me more health, so I can stay healthier and younger for longer, maybe even until technology reaches the point where we can cure aging. I might be rambling, but the shake is very tasty and very healthy. If you want, I can show you. Okay, now let's get to the ingredients: we have a dog, water, four strawberries, a banana (or half a banana if you prefer), chia seeds, oats, milk, peanut butter (don't forget to clean the peanut butter spoon!), a serving of pre-workout, and a serving of your this every day and I never get tired of it. I think nobody cares. And here we start to move towards the end, using philosophy, talking about a concept called transhumanism, which is basically a philosophical movement that advocates the use of these emerging technologies to improve human capabilities. So, obviously, you're going to have chips and various other technologies that will improve your intelligence, your health, your quality of life. This will involve Genetic Engineering, Artificial Intelligence, generation, we will live in the post- human moment, that is, where the human body human moment, that is, where the human body will no longer be alone; it will be present alongside technology. And you can write down what I'm telling you: in a write down what I'm telling you: in a few years, when we realize how advanced technology will be in such a short time, we will start discussing immortality as something other than science fiction. Put it in the comments. Now I'm just curious to know if you would like to... To be immortal, yes or no? And why? This will certainly divide opinions. My intention with this video was to show you my breakfast shake, something I 'm completely passionate about. It's very easy, anyway, it has all these aspects. 50% of my daily diet is already automated and healthy, and I'd like this to give you some ideas on how to create your own health algorithm, automating something related to your health. And now there's an artificial intelligence talking to you right now, the YouTube AI, saying that this video is the next one you should watch. Go there and comment on this other video (the video you came from). A kiss on your butt, give it a like!
