According to the Stoics, we should only worry about things that are under our control, such as our thoughts, attitudes, and actions. We should focus on cultivating virtues such as wisdom, courage, and self-discipline rather than being consumed by external events and circumstances beyond our control.

The Stoics recognized that many things in life are outside of our power, such as the coming AI wars. Therefore, they encouraged individuals to accept and adapt to these external factors with equanimity and detachment, emphasizing the importance of maintaining a calm and rational mindset in the face of adversity.
