The good thing about #AI is that it made nuclear energy cool again.

I think services using #AI to prove that I am human was the crossing of the Rubicon for me.

Most of #AI is fake solutions for fake problems.

Generating fake stuff with #ai is not a good strategy. Focus on the real stuff with #nostr

With all what’s going on with #AI and #Memecoins as of late, I believe we are entering the #DeepShit phase of the technical innovation cycle.

The biggest threat is not the state, it’s corporate #AI.

The lastdefence to your humanity rests on two things #AI can’t do: 1. Guess your private key. 2. Show up in person. Since our world is mostly digital, a network built from the ground up like #nostr is our only hope to maintaining unhijacked personal interactions.

I see the term ‘conscious agency’ being a much less contentious term than ‘sovereign individual’. In short, I want a technology that can extend my own conscious agency into the network without it being high jacked by a platform. This is a very McLuhanesque take, and is a more constructive position than ‘I am a sovereign individual who wants to f*** the state.’ Conscious agency is also a useful counter to #AI. No matter how intelligent’ AI gets, it has no conscious agency. For that matter, there is no satisfactory scientific theory for conscious agency but we all know it exists, just by looking at each other. As I said in my earlier post, I am not too fussed about the nature of conscious agency; I am more concerned (excited) about extending my own conscious agency into the network without it being hijacked. So far, #nostr protocol is the perfect fit, and I can contemplate building solutions like #nostr #safebox that I could never dream of in the user-platform-think world.

This is so true! Right now the popular angst on the dark side of the bus is the impending takeover by #AI Billionaires. View quoted note →

Every #AI process will need its own wallet.

#AI should really stand for Adversarial Interoperability.

Fakery and fuckery has been going on since the dawn of civilization. #CBDC and #AI are nothing new. For the first in civilization we can do something new with #nostr

It’s refreshing that nobody on #nostr really talks about (or really cares about) #AI. For sure, it’s a great tool, but on those other platforms hardly a swipe goes by without seeing a post on the existential threats, etc. of #AI. My take is that here on #nostr we have a predominance of builders and creators that take the new tech in stride, seeing new opportunities. In contrast, on the other platforms, it’s all about fear and how to slow down, regulate or outright stop the innovation, until we figure out ‘what’s best for society’. It’s the shift in power structures that is the underlying fear. If you are a builder or creator that’s the last thing you need to worry about - because it’s you who is shifting the power structures.
