Anatoly Karlin is a blogger and independent researcher. My background is in economics, and I have been blogging about a wide range of topics from geopolitics to transhumanism since 2008.

My personal website akarlin.com hosts an archive of my prior work, and I am also active on X at @powerfultakes.

Projects

(1) Elite Human Capital (this website) is my current main blog where I write about politics, life extension, reprotech, transhumanism, history, and everything else that catches my interest.

(2) Nooceleration: Book extending Sophia DAO programmatic article The Biosingularity is Near to argue that human intelligence enhancement is preferable to dysgenics-driven Dark Age or the AI paperclips.

(3) Sophia DAO ⏩: Opening up the human intelligence enhancement space to crypto investors and accelerating the Biosingularity.

(4) Sublime Oblivion: Sci-fi novel (trilogy) in a universe where the Katechon Hypothesis turns out to be all too true.

RationalWiki

I am the victim of a persistent campaign of smears, libel, and harassment from a former Neo-Nazi called Oliver D. Smith (ODS) at RationalWiki, as well as at lesser known wikis, blogs, and forum posts.

My standard response is to direct readers to my statement on this as well as the CancelWatch article about this individual.
