‘Shipping death’: Anti-aging influencer Bryan Johnson schools Indian-origin CEO against ‘3 all nighters’

Bryan Johnson, a millionaire known for being an anti-aging influencer, has schooled Indian-origin AI tech CEO Karun Kaushik for praising an employee who stayed at the company or his “third all nighter”.

Karun Kaushik, the co-founder Delve, posted on X (formerly known as Twitter) on April 12 saying, “When you step into the office and your founding AI engineer is on his 3rd all nighter...this team never stops shipping.”

Delve is a San Francisco-based startup that uses artificial intelligence (AI) agents to collect and verify compliance evidence for businesses.

Bryan Johnson was among those who reacted to Kaushik's post, and argued that pulling all-nighters is nothing to celebrate, calling “3 all nighters” are equivalent to “Shipping death”.

"3 all nighters = impaired glucose metabolism, elevated cortisol, reduced BDNF, increased IL-6, shortened telomeres, cognitive decline, suppressed immunity, and cardiovascular strain. Shipping death," Bryan Johnson wrote on X.
