Billionaire Proxies, Foreign-Funded Cults and State-Backed Enterprises
It's really hard to beat a state when you don't have state backing.
I’m being asked a lot what I think about Deep Seek — the Chinese AI model that supposedly was built more cheaply than the American iterations — that has captured a lot of attention and interest.
Let me put some of my biases out right away. I’ve never really believed the AI hype. I’ve long thought it was a “fake because” of driving data center growth. Does anyone else ever find it odd that two of the companies with the most data centers — Microsoft and Amazon — were started in the state with one of the lowest energy costs, thanks to the Grand Coulee Dam?
You might think, as I do, that eventually the State will come in and take over these data centers de facto or de jure.
So I’ve somewhat seen the AI battles as a way of wasting a bunch of chips ahead of the U.S. government approved ones taking over the market.
The Russians, the Saudis, the Texans all have an interest in higher energy prices. First it was crypto now it’s AI but the music remains the same.
The Chinese, facing real economic headwinds, do not like high energy prices.
What’s more interesting to me than the news of Deep Seek model is what it might portend for the private empires which have cropped up between America and China.
Is China trying to send us a message? Is it trying to take down its own assets and reset the geopolitical game?
Enter Sam Altman. We’ve written about Altman ad nauseam here on this Substack — search the archives! — but I haven’t really gone into it as much as I could have.
So let’s do that now.
Altman had a 2013 blog post that I have turned to a lot in recent months. Here it is.
"Successful people create companies. More successful people create countries. The most successful people create religions."
I heard this from Qi Lu; I'm not sure what the source is. It got me thinking, though--the most successful founders do not set out to create companies. They are on a mission to create something closer to a religion, and at some point it turns out that forming a company is the easiest way to do so.
In general, the big companies don't come from pivots, and I think this is most of the reason why.
I love these sorts of Rosetta Stones for understanding public people so I look for them often. We’re always looking for an unguarded moment here — a way of telling what’s really going on.
It helps to know that Qi Lu was born in Shanghai, China. Steve Ballmer, the legend goes, personally recruited Lu to work at Microsoft where, if Wikipedia is to be believed, Lu served as the executive vice president of Microsoft, leading development of Bing, Skype, and Microsoft Office, and software engineer and manager for Yahoo!'s search technology division. Lu ultimately worked at Y-Combinator — and helped the Chinese division.
I’ve come to think that a lot of the Chinese advisors around Altman are, in fact, his handlers. How Chinese is Altman anyway? It’s worth asking given his ties to Y Combinator.
Here’s another detail to add: a friend of mine worked at Gates Ventures.
She told me that the original creator of Open AI wasn’t Sam Altman but Bill Gates and that Bill Gates was using Sam Altman as a proxy. Gates wants to take all the material you put into Microsoft and use it to train an AI, she said.
Given Microsoft’s lax approach to security — something memorably chronicled in Nicole Perlroth’s book about the cyber arms race and in the work at ProPublica — that’s probably a really bad idea, I thought.
My source was deeply concerned about her own safety and, despite my assurances to help keep her safe, cut off contact after talking with her husband.
I thought she was overly cautious but then the OpenAI whistleblower has turned up dead. Maybe I wasn’t cautious enough.
Did you know that Bill Gates has longstanding ties to the Russian world? That he visited Russia before the Fall of the Soviet Union? We’re told that Jeffrey Epstein was trying to blackmail Bill Gates over Gates having an affair with a Russian bridge player. Maybe Jeffrey Epstein was the good guy there? It’s never explored.
Say, doesn’t Sam Altman push a lot of nuclear energy nonsense? Isn’t that something the Russians have also cornered?
I thought about all this a lot more when I saw this photo of Masa Son, chairman and CEO of SoftBank, Larry Ellison, executive chairman of Oracle, and Sam Altman, CEO of Open AI.
Masa Son has clearly been turned. That’s seemingly the takeaway from former Financial Times reporter Lionel Barber’s new book, Gambling Man: The Secret Story of the World's Greatest Disruptor, Masayoshi Son.
I suspect that Larry Ellison, whose natural father was an Italian-American United States Army Air Corps pilot, was always something of fed. Did you really think we were going to allow one of our major cloud providers be run outside the federal government?
Has Sam Altman been turned? I don’t know. Consider that NSA director and retired Army General Paul M. Nakasone was appointed to OpenAI’s board. Might the NSA be very interested in taking over OpenAI? Might it be using OpenAI as a means of taking over Microsoft?
A way I’ve come to think about this matter is that it’s really hard to beat a state without state backing. Altman is trying to get state backing.
But what if Altman et al. aren’t the right people to back? What if they are already tainted from the get go?

Watching the four part docuseries Daughters of the Cult (2024) about the Mormon murders and studying the Manson family more closely I wonder if any of that sort of thing is happening now. And if so, what form it might take?
A friend of mine has been tracking all the discussions around Bryan Kohberger who, from the looks of it, was identified through Reddit before getting involved in a drugland-style killing. If the participant and his alleged victims were any race other than white do you think people would make this connection?
Another friend of mine suggests that there is a series of Rationalist murder taking place right now.
She directed me to this curious case of two rationalists involved in the fatal shooting of a border agent in Vermont. One of the suspects, since killed, was from Germany whilst the one in custody is from Washington State.
They’re allegedly linked to similar murders in Pennsylvania and Northern California.
Sure enough, there’s been an effort to chronicle this sort of thing by none other than Aella, a sex worker turned blogger. She’s been known to associate with Elon Musk and Lex Fridman, both of whom we’ve talked about on this Substack.
Aella was herself raised in a cult, allegedly. I’ve often wondered what exactly her whole purpose was. Is she there to collect information on horny tech workers? If so, why?
Might the whole point of these groups be the collection of these sorts of people? Isn’t it the fastest way to stop from getting laid to call yourself pro-natalist? Aren’t all the Less Wrong people kind of culty?
I look upon this sort of thing as controlling the contours of a conversation.
What if the AI people aren’t a threat but frauds?
It can’t be a coincidence that AI is coinciding with declining fertility rates.
Of course rather than raise wages we’re left pretending that technology has created AI.
Consider me unimpressed.
Of course we could use these data centers for something useful — collecting the DNA data of the species which will soon go extinct as the world’s temperature increases.
Think of it as a kind of Svalbard Global Seed Vault for the modern age.
Maybe we could have some stewardship rather than personal aggrandizement?

Have you read arguments that hold "light biophysics" as the organizing principle for all epigenetic disease? (i.e. 7 cell lines creates 7! (factorial) variables)?

You need UVA light exposure to run the mammalian cardiovascular system properly. Sunscreen, clothing, and glasses/contacts are the real problem in oxygen delivery. This affects heart attacks, fibromyalgia, and so many other diseases.

What if I told you that your diet and exercise habits are not the most important factors in determining your health & longevity? Timing, specifically circadian timing is the most critical piece of wellness to get right. What if I told you that light from your environment controls the timing mechanisms inside of your cells?

Tensegrity 101. Quantum biology holds most of life’s mysteries, and it blinds us from our perception of reality by design.
The implications of Tensegrity in cells is that oscillations and vibrations in cell membranes have radically different functions based on the proteins and lipids in the cell membrane.
So you might be wondering, how does the modern world naturally turn down or turn off quantum mechanics in cells when we awaken?
It does it by interfering with the vibrations and oscillations on cell membranes during sleep that act to re-tune the cell for proper signaling. Wakefulness creates a separation from the quantum realm. We need sleep to go back and refuel on these quantum mechanisms. Life uses resonant frequencies of both magnetic and electric fields to control the size and shape of things a cell is made of to make sure it signals properly during daylight, but that ability is created in REM sleep, where special clock proteins are made to allow us to deciphers oscillations from vibrations. Electrons and protons can do this after they are programmed by sunlight.
The building blocks of proteins are formed from amino acids. They can be assembled and recycled without nucleic acid templates during the sleep stages using parts or incomplete, partially recycled proteins to get the job done. Their use is controlled by the ubiquitination cycle, and their motions are well-known in the urea cycle. This alters their oscillations and vibrations and can change their ability. Modern biology believes that DNA and an intermediate template called messenger RNA (mRNA) are required for this process. Soon, centralized science will find out that the redox potential of the surrounding cell environment can alter small fragments of proteins modified by the ubiquitination system during sleep cycles using protons and electrons to perform the quantum tasks of autophagy during sleep.
In sleep, this occurs with the breakdown of protein products of ATP. Adenosine is produced by the degradation of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the molecule that serves as the “energy currency” for the body’s various cellular functions. The amount of adenosine produced in the brain thus reflects the activity level of its neurons and glial cells. The brain’s intense activity during periods of wakefulness consumes large amounts of ATP and hence causes adenosine to accumulate. The onset of sleep is triggered not only by your body’s biological clock and its oscillations, which regulate the cyclical secretion of hormones determining the best time to go to sleep but also by the cumulative effect of hypnogenic molecules that build up in the body while you are awake.
Molecular adenosine has a number of characteristics that make it an ideal candidate to act as one of these hypnogenic substances: its concentration in the brain is higher during waking periods than during sleep and increases during extended periods of wakefulness; moreover, administering adenosine or its agonists to experimental subjects makes them sleepy.
Experiments have shown, for example, that when the levels of adenosine in the basal telencephalon are raised artificially, the neurons in this structure that project axons throughout the cortex produce less acetylcholine. When acetylcholine drops, so does the DC current in the cortex. We can see voltages drop in an EEG to prove it. As a result, cortical activity slows, and the individual falls asleep. This is why sleep and anesthesia are both associated with the loss of the DC current during wakefulness.

I used to have a few IVF conceived members and told them their mitochondrial DNA was likely changed and this caused their chronic disease. Why? How light is used during the process. Of course they cursed me out and fired me and became ex clients. Now years later here is the science catching up.
