My Learnings: #46

Humans, at our core, can be modeled as energy, compute, and storage—drawing from an insight I believe originated with Jeff Booth, the entrepreneur, author, and Bitcoin advocate. We ingest calories as fuel (energy), process information and thoughts (compute), and retain experiences for future use (storage). This framework, while focused on the mind, overlooks our communication protocols (like language) and physical capabilities: occupying space, moving, and manipulating the environment with bodies and tools.

Far from dehumanizing, it's a fascinating lens revealing our parallels to machines and emerging AI. By incorporating these additional elements for communication, mobility, and physical manipulation, the model becomes more comprehensive, inviting reflection on a future where biological and digital intelligences converge harmoniously.
