It's amazing to me how some institutions build dependence into how they relate to people. They depend on knowledge asymmetries to keep people hooked.

When I was getting input on my book with AI, it kept talking about how my book was dangerous, in a good way. Finally I asked, "Why is my book dangerous?" It pointed out my book undermines power asymmetries institutions depend on to maintain power.

I write books to reduce knowledge asymmetries and to maximize the personal power of the readers.

I want a world full of powerful people, and if that means institutions need to crumble, I can live with that even though it's not my aim.

Schools don’t teach you how money is created because if you understood it, you’d ask questions they’re not prepared to answer.

Ignorance isn’t accidental in a system that literally depends on it.
