“Blockchains and cryptography are the only things that are stable in a world where AI can do anything.”

@sreeramkannan on the moment AI changed how he saw the world in 2017:
“One of my students came to me and said, ‘Can I just use AI to solve this problem?’ Two weeks later, he comes back and he’s trained a neural network to do this DNA sequencing thing — and it beats my algorithm, which I had been designing for one and a half years.”
“So that was my AGI moment.”
“AI can do my work, your work — but it can’t break cryptography. It can’t break a blockchain.”
