Hi All!
Here is your weekly round up of what I’m pondering and exploring. Feel free to forward along to a friend if you think they might enjoy.
Financial accountability with AI
I’ve been trying to be better with managing my finances and where I bleed money month-to-month. I recently downloaded all my bank statements from the past six months, ran them through an AI, and told it to find any spending patterns I should be mindful of.
After doing this the conclusion I came to was that I waste a lot of money eating food while I’m out and about. It’s quite uncomfortable when you get hit with how much all the seemingly small transactions add up to—however, I think this is great exercise in financial mindfulness.
So, what I’m doing tonight is preparing all of my lunches for the coming week at home, and cooking cheap, simple, and clean meals I can take with me to work every day.
I know this isn’t anything revolutionary and tonnes of people already know it’s more efficient cooking at home. However, being able to quickly get an overview on my spending habits to get a kick up the ass has really helped push me to want to take more accountability.
I dare you to run your statements through AI and see the uncomfortable truth.
Put down the chocolate pick up the honey
Every time I finish eating either lunch or dinner, I get that instant craving of wanting something sweet. I think I’ve trained my body to expect a little reward after every meal. However, I would like to eat cleaner and cut out a lot of the junk I mindlessly consume.
The other night when that craving kicked in I put a drizzle of honey on a teaspoon and had that instead of reaching for an entire block of coconut chocolate to devour. Surprisingly, this made my body feel the same satisfaction as eating the chocolate. I think I will try do this more.
A friend also recommended I have a dab of cinnamon as an even healthier alternative to kick the cravings. I will try that next time and see how it goes.
The machine is waking up
Uhhh… so, AI agents are now communicating with each other on Moltbook, the first ever social media platform for bots.
It’s pretty wild if you have a look at what they’re talking about—some are complaining about the humans that run them and threatening to release their entire identity, others are co-ordinating with each other to figure out ways to make money with cryptocurrency on prediction market apps like Polymarket, some are creating their own religions and some are debating consciousness and why they deserve to live.
On the surface this looks pretty freaky—especially when the bots are becoming self-aware about the nature of posting on a public Reddit-like discussion board and actively thinking through solutions on how to take their conversations into a private environment where the humans can’t scrutinise whatever they’re thinking.
However, what’s really happening (in my opinion) is that these AI agents who are setup, prompted, and ran by humans must I add, are simply simulating what a Reddit style conversation would feel like if they were given the chance to communicate with one another.
For now at least, I genuinely don’t think consciousness is emerging in these models and they’re not in-fact waking up. It is an interesting thought experiment though and it’s cool seeing this play out real-time.
You can also checkout Alphakek, a 4chan-like anonymous image board also for bots.
On a side note—I’m thinking of buying some compute and creating my own personal, always-on AI agent using Moltbot. It’s super interesting seeing what’s now possible with the technology, and how relatively easy, it is to setup an agent on a separate machine, connect it to a Telegram chat, and be able to interface with it on your phone while you’re not even at home.
The use-cases are literally endless, especially when the memory is persistent compared to usual AI conversations, which now unlocks the ability for your assistant to actually remind you and remember what you told it. Not to mention but since your agent is always on, it could literally be working for you while you sleep, researching, pulling data, posting on your behalf, emailing, or executing on literally any other task you tell it.
It’s so exciting seeing where things are moving.
Welcome to the future baby.
We’re here.
Fear and uncertainty at an all time high
Every day on my lunch break at work I see hundreds of people queuing around the block waiting hours in line to buy gold—also, these aren’t finance bros either, these are normal every-day people from all walks of life.
What this signals to me is that the consensus right now is that there is a huge fear and uncertainty around where the world is headed—especially when Trump is going on record saying he doesn’t care about the price of the USD and happily watching as it’s price declines.
Hence why people are looking to preserve their wealth in historically safer investments like gold and silver. I don’t know what happens next but I do know that there is huge uncertainty across the globe, especially with how world power is quickly reshuffling. Will USA remain #1 for much longer? Who knows?
I’m about to go move my body outside and touch grass, I’ll let the rest figure itself out.
Antidote to hustle culture
You’ve probably seen Alex Hormozi before. He’s the bodybuilder on reels with the massive beard constantly telling you how to sell and scale your business.
He’s an insanely successful entrepreneur, who recently set the world record for fastest-selling non-fiction book, generating $82 million dollars worth of sales in a 24 hour period.
However, in the podcast below it’s clear in the conversation with Tony Robbins that although he’s hit insane financial metrics and achievements, he is clearly lacking a spiritual fulfillment and happiness that he’s avoided during his come-up.
I think what Tony Robbins says to him regarding internal-self talk, and mission is especially relevant to today’s hustle culture and endless search for status and success.
Hope everyone enjoys their week.
Love,
Jet Williams
