Ai_002 – Bias & Truth in AI with Aleks Svetski

“This is the first time we’ve interacted with anything other than a parrot that can string together a coherent sentence. And it sounds stupid, but it’s actually true. So we are anthropomorphizing, we are projecting our own consciousness onto this thing, and we are immediately imagining Terminator, Minority Report, God knows what else we are imagining – the Ray Kurzweil’s of the world – we’re imagining that all of a sudden, that’s it, we unlocked it, basically we have discovered God. We did it. To me that’s such a mix of naivety, ignorance, and arrogance that it’s not even funny.”
~ Aleks Svetski
We have an awesome conversation kicking off episode 2 of AI Unchained today with Aleks Svetski, who is currently building a not-yet-public project in the AI world. He brings a very unique perspective that tries to bring back a bit of perspective to the imaginations gone wild on the world ending possibilities of AI. What is the truth of it? And can we instill “truth” in these machines? Can we make them “objective and unbiased?” Or is there something both inherently foolish and presuming in even the attempt of such a thing, that we can prevent making the same mistakes of the past. Don’t miss this crazy conversation.

Read_734 – Introducing Ark [Burak]

Read_732 – We Need More Apps With Lightning, Not More Lightning Apps [Roy Sheinfeld]

“Permission can only be denied if it is requested. Direct, peer-to-peer interaction obviates permission and equalizes market power. Don’t request permission to transact; transact. Don’t tinker with the system; supersede it.” — Roy Sheinfeld Today we dive into a great piece just dropped from Roy Shienfeld with a great way to think both about Bitcoin…

Read_731 – Let’s Grow Nostr [Jack Spirko]

“The biggest complaint members of my audience make about Nostr is the sheer dominance of Bitcoin content. This is understandable. Nostr uses a means of identification and account management very similar to Bitcoin, it has Bitcoin Lightning integration and Bitcoiners tend to be somewhat techy nerds and early adopters. Hence mostly Bitcoin type folks were the first to…

“Bitcoin transaction fees limit network abuse by making usage expensive. There is a cost to every transaction, set by a dynamic free market based on demand.” — Matt Odell Is Bitcoin broken, are the high fees the end of Bitcoin as money? Are the fees themselves even the problem? How does this relate to not…
