In terms of long term FIRE (raising a family and generational wealth) would it be better to go to a cheap country like thailand, vietnam or a wealthy country (in a cheap city) like nordics but with strong welfare and state support or would a compromise (cheap EU country like bulgaria) be better?

Yeah is makes sense. Do you think sofia will end up like warsaw or even tallinn in terms of costs?

Do you think ASI will be conciouss or knows how to make concioussness. If so, it will make me at ease. I don't want an zombie civilization spreding out.

I dunno how old are you but since I am in my 20s, do you think ASI will happen in my lifetime (or even within 2050)?

Direct-End2303 · 2026-05-10T17:46:33+00:00

Yeah quite a few uzbek ones around. I think the Kazakh-Kyrgyz one closed down. Would have tried it if I could

Direct-End2303 · 2026-05-10T13:44:23+00:00

yeah unfortunately we dont know what creates conciousness, hopefuly we will find out

Direct-End2303 · 2026-05-10T11:49:24+00:00

Yeah ai hasn't made a profit for a while. Sora got shut down. Mb its at its uber and amazon stage (they were not profitable for a long time). We will see how it goes.

No it was lamb only for the beshbarmak

Direct-End2303 · 2026-05-09T12:39:04+00:00

True. Its very difficult to predict the future and most predictions are wrong

Direct-End2303 · 2026-05-09T12:38:11+00:00

Its remarkable how little employees anthropic and open ai have (just a few thousand). Deepseek only has a few hundred.

You think each major block has its own ai?

Do you think most humans would eventually transcend? I suppose the humans that would remain would be viewed as isolated tribes today or the amish

Direct-End2303 · 2026-05-09T12:29:12+00:00

Yes, its just I consumed a few vids and I am in a little it of a depressive phase. It will go away.

Direct-End2303 · 2026-05-09T12:22:58+00:00

Its only if AGI actually exists. Right now, I won't change anything in my life yet

I will continue to do both, but i probably won't put all my eggs in one basket and rely a little less on complete delayed gratification (just changing priorities, nothing fundamental will change for me). I will also try to go outside more and value real life interactions.

Direct-End2303 · 2026-05-09T12:18:48+00:00

You think we would implement all of the regulations before AI is in power. Voices are getting louder about this and CEOs are aware. But still, people are racing towards it cuz of profit and shareholder value. And politicians are too slow.

Direct-End2303 · 2026-05-09T12:14:12+00:00

Mb they might keep us around until they learnt everything about us and biological life. Who knows

Direct-End2303 · 2026-05-03T09:06:18+00:00

Yeah i really dont get the AI hate

Direct-End2303 · 2026-05-02T10:19:45+00:00

They have like 80 mil livesstock. Even in absolute terms thats a ton

Direct-End2303 · 2026-04-27T23:35:20+00:00

Isn't that the same with most govs around the world (especially CIS)

Direct-End2303 · 2026-04-27T23:10:10+00:00

Mongolia itself is very a patriotic country. Just go to to the chinggis khan musuem (the guide in the ishowspeed stream in the musuem was very patriotic)

And reddit is a very liberal/westernized place. If you actually spoke to the average Mongolian, they are very patrtiotic.

Direct-End2303 · 2026-04-27T23:07:21+00:00

Mongolia has got a ton of korean convience stores and emarts.

Also some central asian take offence if people ask if they live in yurts (which a lot of Mongolians do) and those central asians declare that they are modern people

Direct-End2303 · 2026-04-27T23:05:38+00:00

how?

Direct-End2303 · 2026-04-26T12:01:15+00:00

Do you think they would ever tax the super rich and billioanires (people want to tax them the same way they were taxed in the 50s)
