Bryan Johnson says his veganism is a choice, not required by his health optimization program Blueprint. Blueprint found a fully vegan protocol can hit all optimal clinical outcomes, except he currently takes collagen peptides and wants a vegan substitute. He hopes advancing technology will make compassion the default.
Why are you vegan? What's the thinking behind that? By choice. So blueprint does not express opinions about anything. It doesn't say whether veganism is good or bad or meat is good or bad. It just is a process to say, measurement, evidence, protocol. And so I basically just asked my team, is it possible for us to do a vegan protocol and be within the targets of the optimal clinical outcome ranges? So the only exception is I take collagen peptides. I'm trying to find a vegan source for that, but. But yeah, it's a preference, not a necessity. Why do you prefer it? Because I hope that a scaling law of technology, that the more intelligent a system gets, the more compassion that it has.
