Keep an eye on what our new member @ZengateGlobal is up to. Pretty cool to see that supply chain can erase intermediaries by connecting consumers and producers through protocols.

The state interests diverge from the potential tech benefits that average citizens may access to... the adversary is revealing organically as time progresses x.com/realGeorgeHotz/status/…

I'd argue that individual humans are not dumb but still a random person is statistically not smart enough to command the necessary progress to reach prosperity. Human colonies do and must organize, coordinate and cooperate to survive and progress. We need each other

Ants are dumb. But ant colonies are smart. And meta-organisms like colonies arise repeatedly. Because if they don't somehow coordinate, they die. That doesn't require any conspiracy theory. Just evolutionary theory.

MAXIMALISM WILL RISE Inflation is a real problem for the regime. It cuts across demographics to cut into their support. And there's really nothing they can do. Yeah, they can hike rates, but that just means high prices for young people on another dimension — namely, on their biggest ticket items like loans and cars. And of course the entire US economy is based on endless money printing. And high rates mean the regime is piling up interest costs in an unsustainable way, as you can see below, so they can't keep rates elevated forever. All they can do is what they're currently doing. Which is manipulating stats and gaslighting the population. First inflation didn't exist, then it was transitory, then it was being imminently solved by high rates, and now it's actually good for you (or something!). Oh, and the other thing they can do is quietly issue record amounts of debt, just to prop up this fake economy: God only knows how long this lasts or how quickly it comes apart, when it breaks. But the DC regime cannot pay its debts. They will eventually resort to printing gigantic quantities of money. However — if we're already at 64% of 18-29 year olds thinking inflation is the #1 issue, extrapolate out what it looks like when it's 75%. Or 95%. Or 99%. When we're all just drowning in oceans of printed paper. That is the stuff of which revolutions are made. So, this really isn't about Trump vs Biden. For one thing, both Trump and Biden nominated Chairman Powell. For another, as recent votes show, there is no way any national Republican or Democrat will solve this mess. They are creatures of the state, and any solution to inflation will not come from within this state. It will have to come from outside. That's why it the next one really is the people vs the government, the network vs the state, and — most of all — the dollar vs Bitcoin. I am no maximalist, but Bitcoin Maximalism will rise.

Inflation is the number one issue for 18-29 year olds across all demographics.

The internet used to be ✨ fun✨ projects.kwon.nyc/internet-i… I remember visiting my friend’s websites. They were ugly and quirky and it was awesome. You wondered who’d stop by yours. They were a labor of love and a medium of self-expression, not your LinkedIn. We can fight this.

The fact that this still happens today is a JOKE! Not as extreme as Zimbabwe but this is USD 1k in Argentinean pesos. The amount and weight of this paper is absurd. Fiat is a scam! #Crypto #CryptoCommunity

Who was responsible for the economy of Zimbabwe? a) price-gouging corporations b) emigrants who left c) people talking about inflation d) the government of Zimbabwe

You know how image generation went from blurry 32x32 texture patches to high-resolution images that are difficult to distinguish from real in roughly a snap of a finger? The same is now happening along the time axis (extending to video) and the repercussions boggle the mind just a bit. Every human becomes a director of multi-modal dreams, like the architect in Inception. Coming back to Earth for a second, image/video generation is a perfect match for data-hungry neural nets because data is plentiful, and the pixels of each image or video are a huge source of bits (soft constraints) on the parameters of the network. When you're training giant neural nets in supervision-rich settings, your train loss = validation loss, and life is so good. My favorite place to keep an eye on the AI video space unfold atm is probably reddit.com/r/aivideo/ , or the individual Discords.

Decentralization of AI should be made a priority ASAP. Time to get the crypto world onboard. cc @balajis

Replying to @beffjezos
The party was e/acc but in particular- to promote open source and decentralized AI. The last few days have proved why those concepts are so valuable- we need them to protect technology from organizational risk across all timelines. Centralization is the ultimate risk

This is the new tech battle. Do we have a stake in the internet brain (and sovereignty in the way we interact w/ it), or are we the product?
17 Nov 2023
If you’re serious about software, you need your own hardware. And if you’re serious about technology, you need your own sovereignty.
