will travel the world build a distributed operating system for ai and expand my reach and power using it building digital twins and simulating reality and giving my clients a way of gamifying their operations and making it much more efficient. I'm motivated by the thought that companies like palantir and or google and or spacex will try to create surveilance dictatorships and someone has to build open alternatives and decoorporize society when more and more becomes digital. This could best be done with a distributed operating system which everyone controls together connecting all computers together in one giant mesh we can all share and use for all services the internet already provides today. I'm motivated by the thought that someone will define the next million years of human history and I don't want it to be greedy coorporations and I would literally do anything to make this happen a way which is good for everybody and is more stable. but until this point it's all about making money and inspire people as to why this would be absolutely horrible for mankind if corporations control society through surveillance and corrupt politics. Basically we need people to come together and decide and do research on how we can properly govern mankind as it scales to other planets and stars and whether or not we're completely fucking ourselves.

When I was eleven I was thinking about simulating reality and what would happen if you perfectly simulated reality - could you modify something in the simulation and it would happen in real life?

Over time I realized it would be too computationally expensive and you cannot 1:1 simulate reality within itself it's not physically possible (unless quantum computing allows us I'm not sure about that yet).

So the next step would be digital twins connecting everything together in a distributed operating system which is what I'm building together with 5 others twinton.ai but where not making any money because I don't yet know how to sell stuff I need to practice that.

These digital twins also provides so much value for the companies and factories and assets we simulate and it's a good second business after my first one flopped (just one b2b car scrapyard client).

I'm motivated by my childhood dream of simulating reality and creating a superintelligence I named "Alice" as in artificial life in ce (ce-net is the operating stem I created the name Alice years before ce-net). I'm also motivated by fixing society. I think society has too many problems today and as a young man with adhd and with a special way of thinking I never got accepted in school for who I truly was and got bullied in school.

Because of the bad experience I want to create central infrastructure on my earth scale computer like a education platform and systems to genuinely help people instead of just taking your money. Free systems for everything.

And a distributed voting system in the mesh to decide the laws and rules and eventually this would be more powerful than societies laws and rules as the mesh provides more and more services lien education, food, police… this is the best approach I've thought about to steer society and mankind in the right direction as we approach a type 2 civilization because current countries and corporations are way too unstable and reckless (Iran war, corrupting governments, mass layoffs). We need proper systems for all of this and I want to research and build them but for this I need a budget and people who agrees with what I'm saying and currently I'm in China and no one understands what I'm saying.

I want the world to be how it was when I was little because those where the happiest years. To get there we need a society which actually cares for you and understands you whatever your background and ideas are.

Im not at all motivated by money I just want to help people. But to help people I need money.

I built a secondhand app and inventory management system leveraging ai to handle selling and distribution and scanning of your goods. Instead of manually selling on all secondhand sites the system did it for people. We have 1 b2b client which was a large car part retailer with 20 car scrap yards. I sold the code to a ai training company redpine. The backend is in rust with self hosted supabase with over 500k lines of code. Lots of tests. Frontend is in react native. I've explored various opportunities and was going to create a company with a guy working with racerx magazine but I didn't give it my all for some reason because I found it boring. I created the secondhand app together with a bankman. I have made a time schedule tool for Fortnox for Turborilla a Swedish games company. I've created countless websites and systems and side projects. I have heavy adhd as you can tell from my writing I'm currently with my Chinese girlfriend in a clothing store with her friends in Shenzhen when doing this application we are walking up the stairs right now to some place.

Alright so I've explored countless opportunities but because I've felt the lack of motivation from other parties I also loose motivation. I think it has been because they are tooo old and I've only worked with older people. I need to work with young ambitious and crazy people like myself which is also why I'm applying I need to find some friends who are willing to do whatever it takes to become billionaires and fix this planet for our children.
