Serial Social Media Fasting Biohacker Spends $2M to Outsource Mental Scroll Filter to AI

KEY POINTS

•Bryan Johnson, a 48-year-old biohacker, recently completed social media fasts of 40 and 70 hours to protect his mental health.
•He compared social media's impact to air pollution and suggested AI filters could remove harmful content like rage and vanity metrics.
•Johnson spends $2 million annually on longevity treatments and aims to turn social media into a longevity intervention, not a threat.

Bryan Johnson, a 48-year-old entrepreneur and biohacker who spends a casual $2 million a year on extreme longevity treatments like plasma therapy, just completed back-to-back social media fasts lasting 40 and 70 hours. Calling social media 'toxic' and comparing it to air pollution and heavy metals settling into your brain (because apparently your mental tissue has a lead problem now), he says you can't just 'put the phone down.' That advice is apparently as useless as asking Victorian Londoners to stop breathing coal smoke. His genius fix? An AI agent that filters out rage, vanity metrics, and sensationalism, so he only consumes 'calm, factual' content—because nothing says longevity like outsourcing your mood swings to a robot. After all, he wants social media to be a longevity intervention, not a longevity threat. Someone fetch the AI a white coat and a life insurance policy.
