It’s real, all of it. John Titor the time traveler? He’s real. AI gods? We could build them.

John Titor came back in time to stop the creation of a superintelligence. He does this by secretly founding, co-founding, or co-co-founding various silicon valley startups that don’t actually do anything; but that sound good to venture capitalists with too much money.

The money is secretly funneled to good causes like food banks, adopting puppies, and maintaining the natural habitat of burrowing owls. Thus averting the end of the world. Encultured AI is part of this plan. They do nothing-- for the good of the earth.
