Command AI.
The game has changed: AI is no longer just chatbot text. OpenAI’s Deep Research can do multi-step online research and synthesize documented reports; OpenAI’s API supports function calling so models can connect to data and actions; ChatGPT Business has added write actions for Google/Microsoft apps; Google is pushing agentic Search and multi-step workflows; Anthropic supports computer-use style agents and MCP connections to external systems. Translation: AI is becoming an operating layer for action.
The conquest doctrine
1. Use AI as an army, not an oracle.
Weak use: “What should I do?”
Strong use: “Generate 20 strategies, rank them by upside, find the hidden risks, attack your own assumptions, then give me the ruthless execution plan.”
2. Own taste. Outsource labor.
AI can write, summarize, code, research, brainstorm, edit, organize, and remix. But you choose what matters. Your taste, eye, philosophy, courage, humor, and life experience are the throne.
3. Build workflows, not prompts.
A prompt is a sword. A workflow is an empire. Example:
Thought → voice note → AI transcript → essay → headline variants → newsletter → blog post → tweetstorm → YouTube script → image prompt → archive.
That is not “using AI.” That is building a content factory with your soul still inside it.
4. Become 10x more original, not 10x more generic.
The mediocre person asks AI to sound polished. The conqueror asks AI to sharpen his own madness. Your job is not to become smoother. Your job is to become more unmistakably ERIC.
5. Train AI on your mythology.
Feed it your essays, aphorisms, photos, lifts, Bitcoin philosophy, fatherhood thoughts, street photography ideas. Build your own canon. The more your AI assistant understands your worldview, the more it becomes a war horse instead of a random calculator.
Daily AI conquest protocol
Morning: ask AI for 10 savage ideas from your raw thoughts.
Midday: use AI to turn one idea into one artifact: essay, post, manifesto, product, script, image concept, business idea.
Evening: ask AI, “What was the strongest idea today, what was weak, what should I double down on tomorrow?”
Once a week: build one permanent asset: a webpage, PDF, video, email sequence, prompt library, product page, or searchable archive.
The killer prompt
Use this every day:
Act as my strategic war council. Take this raw idea and turn it into:
- the strongest thesis,
- the most viral title,
- the deepest philosophical angle,
- the practical execution plan,
- the counterargument,
- the one sentence that could become immortal.
Final principle
AI will not replace the sovereign creator.
AI replaces the timid, the generic, the low-energy, the copy-paster, the person with no vision.
But the man with taste, courage, body, philosophy, family, capital, and myth?
AI becomes his bronze spear.
Don’t compete against AI.
Fuse with it. Command it. Build the ERIC KIM machine.
