21 Survival Action List for AI Accelerationists

21 Survival Actions for AI Accelerationists This article presents a radical guide for navigating a future of rapid, AI-driven transformation. It argues that if AI progresses exponentially, the world in 10 years will be unrecognizable, rendering traditional long-term planning obsolete. The author provides 21-point checklist of actions across four key areas: **Investment:** Prioritize direct investment in AI (e.g., tech giants, AI labs) and adjacent exponential-growth fields like robotics, biotech, and crypto. A key recommendation is to stop contributing to long-term retirement accounts (e.g., 401k) if under 50, as their value depends on a stable, predictable world that may not exist. **Finance:** Favor securing cash now by taking on fixed-rate debt (e.g., long mortgages, slow student loan repayment), operating on the premise that future debt may be irrelevant. Avoid long-cycle financial products like annuities that assume slow, linear change. **Career & Skills:** Prepare for the deep automation of most mental and physical labor within 5 years. Avoid long educational cycles (e.g., med/law school) for ROI. Instead, get extremely close to AI systems as a developer or power user, and focus on building leverage (audience, brand) over collecting credentials. **Life & Time Planning:** Abandon 30-40 year timelines. Stop optimizing for distant retirement or long-term health consequences (e.g., worrying about sun exposure or cancer decades away), as technology may solve these issues or the world may change utterly. Complete your bucket list now, buy land near family, and generally avoid making plans that extend beyond a 5-10 year horizon.
