I am a blogger and independent researcher.

My background is in economics, and I have been writing about a wide range of topics from geopolitics to transhumanism since 2008.

You can contact me securely via this email.

I’m also present on X and YouTube.

My website akarlin.com contains lists of my my book ratings, podcasts, research, predictions, and travel writing.

That website hosts my blog archives from 2008-2023, which can be explored either as a structured archive, or by Best Posts and Featured Posts.

Here are some of the highlights:

Projects

For updates on my projects, visit akarlin.com. Apart from blogging, my main priorities for 2025 include:

(1) Nooceleration: I am expanding my article The Biosingularity is Near into a book. Its main thesis is that human intelligence enhancement is preferable to a dysgenics-driven Dark Age or the AI paperclips. More details, including a chapter plan, here.

(2) Sophia DAO: Opening up the human intelligence enhancement space to crypto investors and front-running Nooceleration.

(3) Frozen Embers: Sci-fi novel (trilogy) in a universe where the Katechon Hypothesis turns out to be all too true.


Ideology

Though I have always shied away from labels, as of 2024 you can loosely assign me into the libertarianism, network states, and abundance bins. I support free markets, social liberalism, Open Borders, cryptocurrencies and DeSci, and extreme bioliberalism. I am bullish on and want to accelerate biology (bio/acc), radical life extension, and human intelligence enhancement (“IQ/acc”).

My political utopia is to replace the world’s nation-states with network states, running on a decentralized global constitutional trust layer that offers a global UBI from taxes on transactions and safe AI compute.
