Holons
A Holon is a high-dimensional vector or tensor field based Token, potentially spanning hundreds or even thousands of dimensions, where each dimension represents a specific attribute or modality. This allows for the capture of complex relationships and dependencies between different aspects of reality. Holons are "multimodal tokens", a fundamental data structure within a simulated artificial intelligence environment.
By 2030 most AI systems will converge on using Holons which are Multimodal Tokens over the soon to be obsolete language based tokens.
Software 2.0
Software 2.0 is software based artificial intelligence and defined by weights in a large language model.
Andrej Karpathy, a prominent Al researcher and former senior director of Al at Tesla, coined the term
"Software 2.0"
Software 2.0 refers to a new paradigm in software development where traditional programming is replaced by machine learning models. Instead of writing explicit code, developers create and train neural networks that learn from data to perform tasks. This approach allows software to solve complex problems like image recognition, natural language processing, and more, by learning from examples rather than following predefined rules.

Most of the large language models we use aren’t compiled code. They are all software 2.0. The software that full self drives my Tesla is software 2.0.

Digital Physics 2.0
Reinterpreting Physics Through a Simulation Lens
This thought experiment explores the possibility that fundamental laws and constants of physics are not intrinsic properties of a naturally evolved universe, but rather emergent properties or resource-saving shortcuts implemented within a parent simulation

The Heisenberg uncertainty principle is more likely digital physics 2.0 than naturally evolved physics (NEP) thus more likely resource-constrained simulation (RCS) phenomena.

The Exponentialists
The Exponentialists:
The Exponentialists are a hypothetical class of super-affluent individuals who, according to this analysis, will emerge during the 2020s due to their strategic investments in companies poised to dominate the AI and robotics revolution. This revolution is projected to double global GDP within 10-20 years, with the majority of the resulting $100 trillion increase in economic output flowing into a small number of globally dominant, publicly traded companies. The Exponentialists, by owning equities in these companies (through direct investment, mutual funds, or other investment vehicles), will effectively own a substantial portion of this newly created wealth, experiencing a dramatic increase in their net worth as market capitalization multiples amplify the growth of the underlying companies. They are defined not simply by their wealth, but by the source of that wealth: early investment in the companies driving the AI and robotics revolution of the 2020s.

* The early investors in companies like NVIDIA and Tesla, having foreseen the transformative power of AI and automation, are poised to become the core of the next generation of ultra-wealthy, the so-called "The Exponentialists."
* Concerns about widening wealth inequality are amplified by the potential rise of the "Exponentialists," a group whose fortunes are tied to the concentrated gains of a few dominant companies in the AI and robotics sectors.

Teslaforever
Teslaforever describes an investor in Tesla with a stock holding period that is indefinite. They will never sell the equity, extracting funds needed via Margin (borrowing against the equity) or future dividends when Tesla decides to pay dividends in the future.
