TOKENMAXXING IS FOR FOOLS - Freestyle Friday (May 1, 2026)

Stop Tokenmaxxing and step off the AI hamster wheel. Welcome to another Freestyle Friday! What's the overwhelming vibe in the AI zeitgeist? "If you aren't maxing out AI every second, you're going to be left behind." Therefore, Tokenmaxxing is the way, right?

I strongly disagree. We're burning ourselves out with fake productivity and a graveyard of abandoned AI-generated projects.In this episode, I talk about my new minimalist travel setup, why I'm purposefully trying to minimize my AI usage for deep cognitive work, and what skills will actually get you left behind (hint: it's not missing the latest model release).

Solve real problems. Focus on the fundamentals. Take a walk. You're going to be fine.
