Last night's datacenter moratorium/restrictions appear to have gone 43 - 1, with a massive swell of public support averaging 77% to shut it all down. Public sentiment on on AI in America has been going steadily downhill for three years. It is once again at a new low.

if ppl used ai to not be retards then the system is fked
The chief economist at Apollo is warning that mass adoption of AI agents could trigger a bank run as they optimize user investments. Gary Gensler spent his last few years as SEC chair warning that the exact same problem will hit the markets: the pursuit of algorithmic perfection at scale destroys system stability. Personal-finance agents making simultaneous optimal decisions could potentially cause a massive flash crash. Agent acausal coordination, with no messages passed between them, will show up in a lot of places. Markets will get the big headlines, but huge numbers of clever advisors making very similar choices will impact all of human society. Capability gains make this worse, not better. The smarter the agents, the narrower the optimal path; and knowing that other agents see that exact same path lets them move together without talking to each other. Agents do not need to collude to act in unison. Thus, they break no human laws by doing so. Human laws were not written for this. They were not written for a lot of what is coming, and it is about to start happening very fast.

optimal strategy changes to agreeing to draw before the first chess piece moves, then moving on to the next game rinse and repeat. why waste time to grind that extra point
We can easily make chess a positive sum game by awarding 1 point to the loser and 3 to the winner (2 each for a draw) The sum of points is always 4, which is positive This doesn't affect strategy People really do lose their minds about "positive sum" games

1. ppp (price per point) = % token supply airdropped * FDV at launch / 100m points 2. spend 3e on keys to get 20 points 3. generational wealth accumulation 🤝
We just did our first Friday Points Airdrop to 44k users. Some reminders: - 100M points will be distributed during the six month beta period - Airdrops happen on Fridays - Points are recorded off-chain - Points will have a special purpose once the beta period ends

When we run out of good training data in reality, simulation is the next gold mine. Enters Infinigen: an open-source, procedurally generated, photorealistic dataset for 3D vision. The quality is stunning! No two worlds are the same. ▸ Every little detail is randomized and customizable, even the wrinkles on a flower petal! ▸ Diverse objects & scenes in the natural world: plants, animals, terrains; fire, cloud, rain, and snow. ▸ Groundtruth automatic annotations: optical flow, 3D scene flow, depth, surface normals, panoptic segmentation, occlusion boundaries. ▸ Written in Blender. Made by @jiadeng's lab at Princeton: ▸ Website: infinigen.org/ ▸ Code: github.com/princeton-vl/infi… ▸ Paper: arxiv.org/abs/2306.09310

founders can be vectorized as magnitude (energy) + direction. green = good, red = bad, orange = triple zero roulette
A VC friend once used “low energy founder” as a reason for turning down a deal Thought it was hilarious at first, years later realized it’s one of the most reliable predicators of failure (but not of success)

very much agree - identify your exit liquidity before they identify you
Everyone talks about onboarding a billion people to web3. I think we need to work backwards from use-cases that only blockchain tech can enable. To me, there are two major use-cases exclusively enabled by blockchain technology emerge: identity and liquidity.

1. stablecoins need to be backed with something of value 2. non-zero probability of dedollarisation of the usd 3. back with eth blockspace 4. wealth
After EIP-1559, ETH blockspace has skyrocketed in value. Imagine tapping into the previously untapped Ethereum blockspace market with a stablecoin that serves more than just its traditional function. Dinero by @redactedcartel is making it happen. teapaw.org/redactedcartel/status/…

nfts are just a data structure that represents onchain uniqueness. certain things they represent don't need tokens but for others it can make sense. plus it's the easiest way to keep the ponzi going. promise token, promise tokens within tokens. mix tokens, breed tokens. wealth.
it's amazing how something happens in crypto and suddenly everyone forgets everything they spent years learning NFTs do not need tokens they are the tokens
