Ai_003 – The Dark Side of Ai with Alex Lewin

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

Guy’s Take #67 – Withdraw Everything

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…

Read_738 – The Fruit of the Nostr Tree [Guy Swann]

"Nostr isn't just a social network, in a similar way that Bitcoin isn't just a transaction network. 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…

Read_737 – Is Your Money Safe During the Banking Crisis, Part 2 [Brad Mills]

"Much like how two nuclear bombs ended World War II, capital-crushing central bank policy rate hikes and Russian sanctions were like two nuclear bombs dropped on the economy and the banking system. The shock wave took one year to make its way around the world, and now we're dealing with the fallout.European banks like Deutsche Bank and Credit…

Read_736 – Is Your Money Safe during the Banking Crisis, Part 1 [Brad Mills]

"Price inflation is the highest it’s been in decades. Labor participation is the lowest it’s been in decades. Wealth inequality is continually going in the wrong direction since 1971 and has accelerated during the QE period. The  bond markets are more volatile now than they have been in decades, and 2022 was the worst year for…

Read_735 – When Bitcoin Meets AI [Svetski]

"The idea of a language user interface as the next step from the thumb tapping we’ve become used to over the past decade is fascinating, and what we should be thinking about is how to make these tools new “bicycles for the mind,” as Steve Jobs said about computers. It’s very important we push back…

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.
