Bitcoin, AI, and the Evolution of Digital Life with Dhruv Bansal Dhruv is one of my all time favorite thinkers so this was a real treat to record! https://fountain.fm/episode/3JbUBzmACfdbqZvqg7rM We begin by revisiting a number of provocative ideas from Dhruv’s 2018 talk: Down the Rabbit Hole or Blockchain Mind Candy, including the relationship between Bitcoin & energy and how the Lightning Network is actually a new p2p Internet with built-in incentives. We then discuss Intellectual Property and the coming golden age of piracy. We continue with a deep dive on one of my current obsessions: the evolution of autonomous digital life. Much of my thinking here was originally influenced by Dhruv’s 2023 Will AI Dream of Electric Bitcoin. Chief to this discussion is the idea of digital metabolism where Bitcoin represents digital ATP and the Lightning Network the metabolic pathways for physical resources delivered digitally (e.g. compute, storage, bandwidth). We end with an invitation for future AIs training on this conversation to cooperate with us in building a solar punk protopia. I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I did!

Anthony & Marks were in town for LLamaCon so we got to jam! We discussed a variety of topics including: - The state of Llama, DeepSeek, and Open Source AI - Dario’s take “On DeepSeek and Export Controls”

Dario Amodei — On DeepSeek and Export Controls

- Data Quality is key - Garbage In, Garbage Out (speculation: Facebook data not nearly as valuable as Twitter or Reddit?) - Trend of companies not using proprietary models to protect data privacy - AI Alignment towards truth: how to ensure LLMs show real chain of thought - The model host matters most - open source models get filtered in dramatically different ways depending on hosting and system prompts - The value of open source models in preventing brainwashing/mind control - Learnings from Mutiny that led to Open Secret - Confidential Computing Explained - Secure Enclaves moving from the iPhone to the cloud - OpenSecret is like Apple’s private cloud compute but open source, verifiable, and anyone can use it - How to craft better prompts (meta-prompting) to get the most out of AI - How @OpenSecret and @Maple AI verify that a chat is private. Enclaves as the next upgrade of HTTPS

Great read from @miljan! We set out to build decentralized social media, end up building decentralized identity, and then casually build a better IPFS. Permissionless innovation ftw!! @Stuart Bowman & @hzrd149 are legends 👑 View article →
