# Ray Dalio

## Ray Dalio

**Type:** Person (Investor, Author) 
**URL:** https://www.principles.com/

Billionaire investor and founder of Bridgewater Associates. Author of *Principles*.

[[entity-lior-weinstein|Lior Weinstein]] shows a video clip of Dalio explaining how he codified his decision-making principles into algorithms. This is presented as a **historical precedent** for the [[concept-ai-clone-first-hire|AI Clone as First Hire]] concept.

Dalio's approach—systematizing personal judgment into repeatable rules—is effectively what the [[framework-parenting-ai|Parenting AI Framework]] teaches: externalize your knowledge, voice, and decision-making so an AI can reliably replicate it.
