" "Your n=1 behavior is cosmically significant.
What you do matters, far more than what you think. Large scale systems change through singular points, not gradual shifts.
For example, supercooled water stays liquid at -5°C until a single ice crystal forms. Then the entire volume freezes in seconds. One aligned crystal triggers the cascade.
The same is seen in social systems. Smoking in offices was immovable until it collapsed. Marriage equality went from fringe to law faster than anyone predicted.
Once a committed minority reaches approx 25%, consensus snaps. It happens via nucleation points: individual demonstrations that the new state is viable.
Each person running the protocol creates permission for the next. The pattern replicates fractally until critical mass triggers the phase change.

Additional quotes by Bryan Johnson
Adult rights may be significantly curtailed in the future.
Teenagers rights are limited because relative to adults, their decision abilities are seen as inferior. If teenagers were the most cognitively advanced people on earth, they'd be in charge because of their relative superiority.
Rights follow from relative competence.
As AI scales, this same calculus will inevitably apply to adults.
Humans drive cars today because of their relative competence superiority. Once autonomous systems prove statistically superior, human driving will become unacceptable as a public safety hazard.
AI will manifest in similar ways across society, demonstrating superior judgment in law, medicine, finance, governance and beyond. I can also imagine individuals and companies willfully opting into outsourcing critical functions.
I'm not saying I want this world or that I think it's inevitable, only this is directionally where the patterns point if I follow the lines, and only if competence is the criteria for determination.
Of course, with the emergent complexity of AI it's impossible to know. And the guessing often says more about the guesser than the future itself.
