Oddbean new post about login | logout People are mostly afraid of AI and robotics because the control structure that manipulates money doesn’t allow the productivity gains to flow to them….instead, concentrating the control and dystopian outcomes. And that’s mostly tied to the fact they don’t understand how #Bitcoin changes that paradigm. AI + Robotics are only tools - created by us, serving us in the free market imposed by #Bitcoin. We (together) on an honest ledger are the supercomputer.
Machines do the work and humans go back to humanity
Raising kids, focusing on health, working the earth, laughing and enjoying life. sounds kinda nice.
People were mostly afraid of fire over 1 million years ago. Our ancestors embraced fire. Those that were scared and ran away all died by freezing or getting eaten by lions! lol Almost every new technology is feared by the masses... Fortunately with AI and robotics the consequences won't be as bad for the the masses that did not understanding fire! (same for #Bitcoin)
I'm not afraid of "AI". My take on it is that it is mostly being used right now as a financial scam by BigTech. Most of the things that are promoting as "AI" products are not useful or profitable, but they are using the hype to boost stock prices, sell portions of their shares and enrich themselves. It's a confidence game to get profits from investors who follow the news, but don't understand the practicality of the technology. "AI" may not be completely fake, but it is mostly a scam. #AI #LLM
And he control structure is working hard to make sure that most will not understand that simple truth (see recent OSU commencement speech).
Jeff, im having trouble visualizing all the productivity gains flowing to bitcoin, is it possible that even hardcore maxis are underestimating the dollar value of bitcoin when measuring it from that system? Maybe hyperbitcoinization is what you’d call it.
It doesn't change anything
« There is no « they », just us » and we have our work cut out to manifest that supercomputer ‼️🌈
Feels like pretty special “work” to me.
