@BenDiFrancesco I still don't understand why the gating is around the input and not the output. Seems much simpler and much better UX to just don't allow malicious output out the door.

@conorsen Capital allocation decisions seem to be getting exponentially harder over time because the set of opportunities to potentially deploy capital into is growing explosively.

it's sort of like an inner monologue but way weirder because you really have to spell things out that you wouldn't to yourself.

You have to almost get your emotions going to effectively write a good or complete prompt for an AI which makes you, consciously or unconsciously, humanize it more.

@_weidai #2 is the whole game but I haven't seen too much data on this. And even if there is data, today's snapshot might not reflect the future equilibrium.

Zcash being punished by the market like this when they are doing everything right, and are clearly going to make things right for their users no matter what makes no sense to me.

I just wrote a lot more about this, I can't stop thinking about it: gregoryap.substack.com/p/what-if-ai-p…

What if AI psychosis is the product? What if the highest economic value of AI is selling humans satisfaction? The same way that social media has flourished by allowing humans to outwardly project status, AI might flourish by allowing humans to inwardly project status.

@Philadeliberty @Mike_from_PA I'm anti-wealth tax, but a home that has greatly appreciated is absolutely wealth. The fix in my opinion is actually basically what PA already does: giving capital gains and income the same tax treatment. If that applied everywhere, more people would pay themselves directly.

@banteg @woke8yearold I think you're right about this. Claude is for sure the better businessperson but Codex is a lot more capable in terms of coding output on hard problems. But this also explains a lot about Anthropic's enterprise momentum vs. OpenAI's.

I wrote something today that compiles a lot of thinking I've been doing. It's clear that AI is an economic revolution. Yet something about the "AI economy" still feels fragile. gregoryap.substack.com/p/if-there-is-…

@banteg I've sensed that they've been forming a profile of me across my Open AI usage. It's a bit creepy, but it's ultimately what I would want it to do for maximum utility. And I guess it's up to me to share only what I want to share.

@hosseeb This is true, and decentralized stablecoins are even moreso

@MikeIppolito_ I think this is pretty accurate. Going back 30 years on internet tech, the market has rewarded distribution over all else in the long term.

A large part of my interest in blockchains is the evolution of democracy and governance. And I think we are witnessing that evolution live now, particularly as it pertains to L2 as lower levels of governance superseded but an L1. I think Arbitrum is making the right call here. And if the community eventually decides they didn't, the Security Council can be replaced democratically.

@banteg I'm very concerned about this. Building actually secure software will cost 10x (or more) than the status quo. Shareholder capitalism will mandate we take the 1x cost rapid development approach, security risks be damned.

@harrisonfinberg I've thought about this a lot. Why buy something in Philly when you can buy something with similar economics elsewhere and not have to deal with all the extra taxes and outright hostility? I get it now. (Source owned things in Philly.)
