Why Your Next Career Should Be AI-Proof and Earth-Bound

In the technocratic dystopia of modernity, things are undeniably grim, and they are getting worse at an accelerating rate.

This is not merely an observation for the hopelessly naive normie who still believes the evening news; it is a reality that even the most savvy lifehacker must confront daily. We find ourselves trapped in a pincer movement of economic instability and biological decline. If you are a Millennial or a member of Gen Z (I shall dub thee: Gen Zer), looking at the sordid state of affairs and deliberating between the career options of selling your body on OnlyFans, becoming some specie of online scammer/grifter, or signing up to die in some utterly pointless foreign war, I have a contrarian option for you.

There is a shockingly simple, personal, and pragmatic solution that my mind keeps returning to. It is a solution that addresses the very core of what ails both society and the individual. Before I reveal it, we must first categorize the five specific crises that this path mitigates, for we are meticulous empiricists here, and we must define our problems before we solve them.

Five horsemen of the modern apocalypse

First, we have the technological unemployment crisis. Growing numbers in our society simply will not have work in the near future because of the “enshittification” of the economy via AI, outsourcing, and corporations running leaner and meaner. These unemployment and underemployment numbers are only going to tick upward for the foreseeable future.

Second, we face a dire food quality and cost problem. Especially in America, the food of the masses has become overpriced poison. The cholesterol-rich eggs you need for neurological repair have become a luxury item, while the mainstream options are laden with glyphosate and metabolic disruptors.

Third, many of us are developing chronic health problems related to a sedentary lifestyle. We spend our lives in front of glowing, dopamine-draining screens for both work and play, incurring a massive biological cost.

Fourth, our formerly first-world cities are devolving into urban dystopias of crime, chaos, and a total loss of community. These centers (where the housing crisis intensifies as the cost of living skyrockets) are increasingly succumbing to socialism, which, as history dictates, only serves to make everything worse.

Finally, we face a “meaning crisis.” The work available feels meaningless, starting a family feels impossible, and we have become agency-less passengers on a crazy train hurtling toward a cliff of nihilism.

The solution

Early in the mornings, in those contemplative moments after I have taken my smart drugs, or after a cold shower, or after a non-ejaculatory tantric lovemaking session with my wife, my mind oddly keeps returning to one specific solution to the modern “everything crisis.” Why aren’t more people talking about THIS? Is it really that simple? My solution, which you should be dying to hear by now, is this: Become a farmer.

I am suggesting that you reject the digital panopticon and return to the land. This is not some “back-to-nature” hippy sentiment; it is a hard-nosed, AI-proof career strategy. Farming is actually far cooler than the stereotypes of the old man on a tractor would suggest. With modern regenerative farming practices, there is an incredible amount of science and natural engineering involved in the production of food.

I’d suggest rebranding “farmer” to something cooler, Sovereign Soil Hacker.

The AI-proof entrepreneurship of the soil

Farming is one of the few careers that will remain shielded from the voracious appetite of AI and robotics for a long time. There is an innovative movement in regenerative farming that results in a much higher yield of nutritious food while simultaneously regenerating the land.

Years ago, I read a compelling, albeit “fringe,” case that the Amazon rainforest was actually constructed by the Atlanteans thousands of years ago. They utilized Terra Preta, an incredibly rich, dark soil that is actually reproducible. This type of high-level agricultural engineering allows for the production of food that is biologically superior to what you’ll find in a mainstream supermarket.

And that’s not all, other innovations are fueling and multiplying the yields of forward-thinking independent farmers...

* Molecular Hydrogen (H2​) Agriculture: Research indicates that treating plants with hydrogen-rich water can significantly increase yield, improve antioxidant levels, and enhance resistance to environmental stress. This is effectively “Biohacking” the plant’s own stress-response systems. (Molecular hydrogen is a fascinating area of Biohacking that I’m going to be leaning into this year).

* Electroculture: This involves using atmospheric electricity (via copper antennas or coils) to stimulate plant growth. It appeals to the “hacker” mindset by utilizing neglected energies to increase fertility without chemical fertilizers.

* Nutrient-Dense Infusion: While colloidal silver is primarily used as an antimicrobial (an alternative to nasty pesticides) for seeds, the broader biohacker move is Regenerative Agriculture, which uses compost teas and microbial inoculants to restore the soil’s “microbiome,” mirroring the human gut-health focus common in lifehacking.

According to the USDA 2022 Census of Agriculture, there is currently a major deficit of farmers, which is a significant reason why food prices are skyrocketing. This creates a massive entrepreneurship opportunity. There will always be a market of discerning people who want their food produced by humans rather than big corporate factory farms. If you produce organic, regenerative food, you are creating a product with intrinsic value that inflation cannot easily erase. Furthermore, as a farmer, you can always eat your own product. You don’t have to worry about the inflated prices at the grocery store when you are the source of the supply.

Biohacking the agrarian lifestyle

This path also solves the health crisis of sedentary life. Farmers spend their time outside, under the sun, and in nature.

In the past, this meant back-breaking labor and mobility problems. However, we are Biohackers. By yielding the tools we have, such as high-dose collagen supplementation, red light therapy for recovery, an injection of BPC-157 from time to time, and meticulous ergonomic practices, one could maintain a high-performance body while doing vigorous work. It is about taking the toll of physical labor and tempering it with advanced recovery protocols.

This lifestyle also addresses the “meaning crisis.” Have you ever heard of a “depressed” farmer? Me neither! Working with your hands to produce something essential is a freedom-oriented existence.

Become a farm-life “influencer”

You have probably played with the idea of pursuing a career as an “influencer.” This isn’t as vain and vapid as it may seem; it is actually a viable entrepreneurship option that connects directly to being a Sovereign Soil Hacker. In an era of AI-driven technological unemployment (a crisis I saw coming way back in 2012, listening to the ever-prescient Singularity.FM), the “influencer” model is
