Guy’s Take_094 – Focus

“Never half-ass two things. Whole-ass one thing.”— Ron Swanson
Focus. Easily spoken, hard to live by. There are many lessons that Bitcoin teaches, and one that is more clearly true the older I get, is that every single thing in a trade off. And not just solutions, or tools, or networks, but the very thing that you spend your time thinking about, at the expense of all other things. What dreams you spend your time building, at the expense of all other dreams. What new ideas you begin, at the expense of what you’ve already started, and not yet finished.
Its time for an overdue change, and today I wanted to share my thoughts, how we got here, and what to expect in the future.

Ai Take_036 – Does AI Even Have a Product?

Is the pursuit of artificial general intelligence a pipe dream? Are the economics of building massive AI models unsustainable? And what if the future of AI isn’t about creating a single, all-powerful intelligence, but rather a multitude of small, specialized tools? In this episode, we explore the latest developments in AI and challenge the conventional wisdom about where the field is headed.

Guy’s Take_093 – The Guy Who Broke into Our Room in Lugano

Was a recent break-in at a luxurious hotel just a coincidence, or a targeted attack on a Bitcoiner? We should expect that bitcoiners will be targeted. If not by governments, then simply by thieves, scammers, and opportunists. This is something that my brother and I learned very acutely with our trip to Lugano and the Plan B conference, where a man broke into our hotel room presumably to get access to our devices or steal any valuables we may have been traveling with, and we caught him in the act. This episode is a lesson in preparedness, complacency, and hopefully a wake up call to those who think things will be smooth sailing. Don’t be one who has to learn the truth the hard way.

Guy’s Take_092 – Inflation Does One Thing

You’ve likely been fed the narrative that inflation stimulates spending, benefits the economy, and that government expenditures have a profound ‘multiplier effect.’ This is often accompanied by an oversimplified explanation of how a money printer somehow magically boosts economic activity. These claims are just a few of the many justifications tied to the inevitable consequences of counterfeiting by government. However, the truth is that inflation has a singular, fundamental effect that’s surprisingly straightforward to grasp. Beneath the surface, all the touted benefits of inflation crumble, revealing a far more insidious reality. It’s time to cut through the noise and set the record straight, which is why I think it’s time for a Guy’s Take episode.

Ai Take_034 – Small Models Reign Supreme

Will the increasing shift towards smaller, more efficient AI models revolutionize the way we interact with AI? Can open-source models and fine-tunes like Hermes 3 and Grok 2 challenge the dominance of proprietary models?

Guy’s Take_091 – The Path of Greatest Pain

Sometimes life will make you feel stuck, it will wear you down and gaslight you into believing you have made no progress. Small, persistent progress is hard to see, and its only when you take a big step back that it becomes clear. Today I explore the parallels between life’s ups and downs and Bitcoin’s market volatility and where we are today. I’ll share why Bitcoin’s limited supply and steady upward push make it a powerful reminder of the importance of seemingly tiny, but unceasing improvements, and why it’s essential to endure through the tough times to still be there for the great times.

Guy’s Take_090 – What if Bitcoin Saves the Dollar?

Is the Bitcoin-Dollar theory a path to salvation or destruction for the US currency? Stablecoin issuers have become major buyers of US bonds, and political figures have flipped the script to embrace Bitcoin. What does this mean for the future of money, and will Bitocin reinforce dollar dominance or pave the way for a new monetary standard? It’s time for a Guy’s Take episode.

Ai Take_031 – How I use AI

Is AI really all hype and oversold gimmicks, or is it going to change the world and replace everyone with software workers? Or are both of these views a distraction from what’s right in front of us? How is AI useful today for very real tasks? In this episode, we’ll dive into some major new open-source models and releases, along with exploring the very practical applications of LLMs with the help of Nicholas Carlini’s fantastic article on where he finds value today. I also want to challenge the pessimistic views about AI’s impact on jobs and share how we can leverage these tools to enhance our work and bring new projects to life. But how can you start using AI effectively in your daily tasks and creative endeavors? Let’s find out.

Ai Take_030 – Preparing for the Intelligence Explosion

How might open-source AI development shape the future of artificial intelligence and global competition? Guy Swan examines Leopold Aschenbrenner’s “Situational Awareness” piece and Mark Zuckerberg’s recent article on open-source AI, exploring the potential for an intelligence explosion, the risks of centralized AI development, and the advantages of a decentralized approach. Could open innovation be the key to maintaining technological leadership and ensuring a positive AI future?
