"The more wonderful something is, the more passion it will arouse. Bitcoin is among the greatest wonders of the late-modern world, so Greg Foss is understandably very passionate about it. So passionate in fact, that he dropped 11 f-bombs in 31 seconds. Why is such a stalwart bitcoin proponent so concerned? Because two guys in cheap wizard…
Read More"What is Bitcoin? Many have attempted to answer this question, but I believe that our quest to do so is doomed to continue in perpetuity. The continuing development of the protocol is where the cutting edge of research into what Bitcoin is and discussion about what it should strive to be actually occurs. It can be…

“These contributions were pivotal in the image generation space, setting Stable Diffusion on a different path from Dall-E. Having an open model led to product integrations, marketplaces, user interfaces, and innovations that didn’t happen for Dall-E. The effect was palpable: rapid domination in terms of cultural impact vs the OpenAI solution, which became increasingly irrelevant. Whether the same thing will happen for LLMs remains to be seen, but the broad structural elements are the same.”

While I wasn’t sure whether I would bring the “read” format to this podcast, there was just too much great material to cover and I felt I would do a disservice if I didn’t make it available for the audience who wants to dive into this stuff with me fully, rather than be satisfied with a summary. So I felt the best option for a flagship read, was the article that finally tipped me over the edge to start Ai Unchained. A leaked document from a Google employee seeing the trends and compounding effects of the open source Ai movement, titled “We Have No Moat, and Neither Does OpenAI.” Get ready for a great read, and the shows first Guy’s Take…

"Zapvertising has two forms, and I believe there is a crucial difference between the two. In one version, a company or creator zaps a ton of notes on the Nostr feed. Blockstream has done this for a couple of days at a time, to great success. It is very unobtrusive. Just a gentle reminder that…

Ai may be able to make us vastly more productive, far more creative, and orders of magnitude more dangerous. As Ai moves into the realm of creating hierarchies of tasks to accomplish larger goals, combined with the unparalleled scalability of its execution, a broad, self-spreading and malicious Ai becomes frighteningly more possible by the day. Like a wildfire burning out of control, what could be the consequences, how bad could a hypothetical scenario get, and what, if anything, can we do about it?
Don’t miss this incredible conversation with Alex Lewin, bringing a software development and cyber security perspective to the show, to shine a light on the dark side of Ai

With the banking crisis just getting started, with the SEC going after Binance and Coinbase, with rumors of Prime Trust declaring bankruptcy, it is no better time than now to take advantage of the most elegant aspect of Bitcoin, that it is a bearer asset that you can own without the permission or liability of…

Both of these things are true, but they each miss the more significant elements of what they accomplish." — Guy Swann Yesterday I was consumed with a mental thread that I couldn't get out of my head, and…

Wealth inequality is continually going in the wrong direction since 1971 and has accelerated during the QE period.
