Just trying 🤗
Trying to stop, pause, or ban AI isn’t the way.
It’s only truly dangerous in closed information platforms where you have a single tunnel view and can’t escape.
Especially if the incentives of keeping you narrowly engaged are aligned toward gov’ts & corporations, and not users. And where a handful of billionaires get to play the role of “information gods” and decide the rules.
The answer is open, permissionless and decentralized platforms, so you can exercise your digital freedom and find a home that aligns with your values.
Unfortunately governments will never admit this. They continue to see crypto as dangerous. Something that threatens their existence.
It’s not because they’re a bunch of 70 year olds who don’t understand technology. It’s because they capitalize off of fear. And fear is the essence of control. And it’s ultimately what votes them into power.
So eventually they will try to accumulate even more of it, as more fear will lead to more votes which will force unnecessary action.
And make no mistake, that if the US government does something foolish, like try to sneakily ban AI or ban crypto by killing off its access points - other countries will aim to follow.
But it’s important, more than ever, to continue building and innovating.
And without people pushing the limits of what’s possible, we will lose our place in the world where both fear & control will be the only option left on the table.
Although have faith in people, because ultimately they will seek happiness by the path of truth and freedom. It is how we are wired. And the beauty of America is that we get to try again and again and again until we get it right.
Build your way out of fear (crypto), otherwise they will continue to fear what we build (AI).
