I’m not at all confident that “We’ll see lots of economic growth acceleration from AI” implies “The value of publicly traded company stocks or bonds I can currently buy will increase.” So I haven’t shifted where my investments go.
I have increased my savings rate in the past few years, but that’s mostly because of a better paying job and a change in lifestyle (sold my house, became a full-time RVing nomad living in a way that reduced my expenses).
In the process I increased my adaptability to some kinds of risks and disruptions. Nothing that would protect me from a truly bad AI outcome, obviously, but now I have my own electricity supply from solar+batteries+inverter; I typically have ~2 weeks of fresh water in storage at any one time; I can easily move all my belongings (as long as there’s gas) for any reason; and I’ve learned to be slightly more handy and am continuing to work on increasing that.
