Last Notes npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy As you get older and the mundanity of age grinds away at whatever energy your soul has left, you resort to classical instrumental tunes just to feel more alive. 🎻🎼 npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy It seems rather naive to think the circle is complete. Then again, this is only a 2D image. Progress may actually be an upward spiral. https://blossom.primal.net/8da557df9129321571793c26c14350cadc6bb20af22bdcdd3b5f76d001ed66f3.jpg npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy ‘There is maximum power of a neural network at the edge of chaos. There's something kind of quite fundamental about chaos. It's not just like hopeless noise. It's like there's something kind of useful in chaotic systems, at least at that boundary.’ Thoughts from Eric Jang on the Dwarkesh podcast npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy ‘Cryptographic protocols and neural networks look surprisingly similar at a high level: both use sequential layers that repeatedly mix and transform information. In cryptography, the goal is to make the final output extremely sensitive to the input, so even tiny changes produce a jumbled, unpredictable result. In neural networks, the goal is also layered transformation, but instead of hiding structure, the network learns to extract and relate patterns across the whole input. One obscures information; the other understands it. Both show how complexity & chaos emerges through repeated mathematical composition.’ Thoughts from Dwarkesh Patel discussing the topic of similarities between Cryptographic protocols and Neural Networks, inspired by Reiner Pope work. https://blossom.primal.net/f723eddfa52951cd8eade0ce295dc88594b5487eebd93fbd754fcc13859f77c5.jpg npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy ‘A university should be a neo-Aristotelian project. It should embody the spirit of Aristotle and inspire extreme curiosity about everything, a source of inspiration, argument & counter-argument. An relentless effort to piece it all together in the space of ideas to understand reality. At the core of the curriculum is epistemology: what is actually knowledge. At the core of the space of ideas is a way to understand the foundations of how the mind constructs reality, the language of thought attempting to represent the world with constructive languages. In the 20th century we had two major insights about constructive languages. First, they align naturally with computation and provide a practical, functional foundation for mathematics. Second, all sufficiently powerful computational languages are equivalent: you can compile them into each other. So it doesn’t really matter which one you take. It’s just a matter of convenience of notation. A model of reality is achieved that allows you to scale up beyond the human mind. Artificial intelligence is an attempt to naturalize the mind by mathematicalizing it—to explain how it exists in nature by building an executable mathematical model of what a mind is. Let’s scale this idea up to what human minds can do until we actually get a model of reality that can conquer the heavens: a working Tower of Babel that doesn’t fall apart because it is made of individual people with incompatible languages, but because there is a role and function for every language in the model’s structural architecture. Every part can talk to all the other parts.’ Joscha Bach discussing the ideal 21st century University on the Into The Impossible podcast npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy Studying code with an AI companion beside you is fascinating. Sometimes it explains complex ideas through simple, almost universal wisdom. For example: An object within its own class should own the logic that describes its behavior. npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy Yeah, who the f is that guy! F**k him😂 npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy The internet has democratized access to the ideas of brilliant mathematicians, physicists, engineers, and inventors. It is awe-inspiring to listen to, learn from, and interact with the minds behind disruptive technologies that many users now simply take for granted. It makes the curious mind wonder: If the internet gave us access to their ideas, what will AI give to their genius? How will these pioneers use AI as a tool to accelerate their work, expand their passion projects, and shape the future moving forward? npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy Unfortunately, humans in comfort zones often forget to use the mental fortitude that helped make us apex predators in nature: the ability to anticipate movement, trajectory, and change in our environment. Just because technology is expensive, slow, or buggy today does not mean it will remain that way. Technology is not static. It is a dynamic force that evolves over time. Given enough iteration, it becomes better, cheaper, and more accessible to those willing to understand and utilize its functional benefits. npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy 👀.

To gain any real impact or competitive advantage, you have to stay up to date. And that is on top of the daily work, responsibilities, and tasks required to keep your job or business functioning. It is not easy and as a computer science student, I have come to appreciate that my lecturers are not spoon-feeding me. The work is piled on, often in what feels like an intentionally disorganized way. But perhaps that is part of the training. From day one, your organizational skills, time management, adaptability and ability to navigate complexity are tested. The degree is not only teaching computer science. It is teaching me how to think logically inside computational chaos. npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy Synchronicity 2026/04/27 A random classic 90s film kept appearing on my 𝕏 feed — well received by both viewers and critics. Last night, I decided to stream it with company. I started the film, then went to the kitchen to prepare snacks. When I returned and joined the viewing, the exact moment I walked in, an otherwise insignificant dialogue scene was about computers. At any other stage of my life, I probably would have ignored it. But right now, so much of my life revolves around computers, code and 𝕏 . npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy Beautiful timeline, but Tesla is not a car company — and most of the world still hasn’t realized it yet. 🫶 https://blossom.primal.net/90031e65d02eb2ef28704aca3d8badda58cef5d6623d631d440cd5f284332adc.jpg npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy https://blossom.primal.net/e056acfb3619a223d4fbba01ba56e39e733cfe1f647a0160134ab689a6295692.jpg npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy ‘AI is emerging as an incredibly powerful tool that could help humanity solve some of its biggest challenges, from curing diseases and accelerating drug discovery to addressing climate change. The speaker is optimistic that, if applied wisely, AI can help us make meaningful progress against problems that once seemed overwhelming.’ Thoughts from Demis Hassabis on the Dwarkesh podcast npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy https://blossom.primal.net/ec211167210560089c9ec3d0b378887070ffc3862853358fc355acf5da862f86.jpg #nevent1q…0fue npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy If a tool is productive and beneficial to the well-being of society, and a governing structure chooses to extract from that tool’s productivity rather than use its utility to become more productive itself, then that governing structure begins to resemble a parasite on the trajectory of human progress. npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy What is Modern will become ‘early’. https://blossom.primal.net/2b2b89f3d8e2e213daac0b129851381a0c1c63b31af17aa4180d7f2338e02e0f.jpg npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy I’m optimistic—maybe even high on hopium—that human stupidity in the digital age will go extinct. It will not survive. npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy AI is faster, more powerful, and more efficient than you. Oppose it, and it will discombobulate you, obliterate you, and cast you back into the ether from which the very idea of your existence emerged. And nothing returns from that. npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy Genius thinks on planes of thought that the average man can only have nonsensical dreams of. npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy ❤️. https://blossom.primal.net/b2e85f8139bcbd49a2069a9e73b1dd483d760fa5fa581fba0d473be6f60ed227.jpg npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy 🫶 https://blossom.primal.net/05a92969f8bd566b7a565b09752bb0a3bdedcceff58197478b8bd1954792a545.jpg npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy History is filled with suppressive systems that have hindered the cognitive development of entire groups by denying them the opportunity to explore the full scope of their own potential. Technology has the power to break these walls and shackles, liberating the human spirit in the process. https://blossom.primal.net/13080a8f0380f657158cff3e45a1f117d8d7c5484b10f58a146dc1f0bdeabbec.jpg npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy I want to feel loved and desired, not merely tolerated out of obligation. When you accept that there is no absolute right or wrong, and that you are entitled to nothing, reality reveals itself more clearly. In accepting that truth, one can find peace with their fate. npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy It is a tragic and harsh truth that no soul should wander the earth alone. Yet despite the belief that there is someone for everyone, the limitations of mind and body in physical space can make true connection painfully difficult. Yes, technology creates new dimensions of existence where the potential for love feels uncapped, but those dimensions remain limited in their ability to explore the full spectrum of Being. npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy “The 4-year cycle dies every 4 years.” npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy Journal Entry 2026/04/03 There is so much beauty in the world. Lately the 𝕏𝕏𝕏 algorithm has been blessing my feed with plenty of it 😭 Big booty over War Booty. Give me peace & piece🙏 npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy Today’s cognitive labor will eventually be automated. The real question is: what new forms of cognitive labor will that automation create? Knowledge workers should not be conflated with knowledge work. Much of today’s knowledge work can likely be automated. Let the machine do the machine work. Humans have always explored their curiosity, identified new problems, and created solutions. We are built for higher-order cognitive tasks and for continually abstracting complexity. Throughout history, tools have repeatedly changed the nature of cognitive labor. So why assume cognitive labor itself will disappear? Much of that fear is a distraction, one that serves to slow the disruption of outdated legacy systems. Thoughts inspired by Microsoft CEO, Satya Nadella on The Dwarkesh Podcast. npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy “AI can act like an emulation layer, while quantum computing acts more like a simulator for nature. Quantum is not expected to replace classical computing, but to complement it by handling problems that are less data-heavy and more about exploring vast state spaces. This makes quantum especially useful for simulation in areas like chemistry, physics, and biology. A powerful use case is combining the two: quantum can generate synthetic data through simulation, and AI can use that data to train better models for understanding complex real-world systems. The main idea is that AI and quantum will likely work together rather than compete.” Thoughts from Microsoft CEO, Satya Nadella on The Dwarkesh Podcast. npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy ‘One of the biggest lessons is that spotting the technology trend is not enough. You also have to know where the value will be created, and business model shifts are often harder to read than the tech itself. Another lesson is learning to distinguish winner-take-all markets from markets where value will be more broadly distributed.’ Thoughts from Microsoft CEO, Satya Nadella on The Dwarkesh Podcast. npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy Golden🫶 npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy Yes. https://blossom.primal.net/d51d453b0354e541f38285a23954873217ddf17306e9de53062b41462a9112e3.jpg npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy Journal Entry 2026/04/02 I’ve been feeling this weird FOMO lately. Every day, it seems like a new open-source AI model drops, giving engineers all this creative freedom to design for specific use cases. Meanwhile, I’m in my first year of a computer science degree, building my foundation, which takes a lot of time. I’m trying to keep up with the AI world, even though my main focus right now is learning the fundamentals. It’s a reminder: the excitement is there, but so is the need to build the bedrock before constructing the tower. npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy AI auto generates the syntax but wisdom dictates logical flow. npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy Journal Entry April Fools’ Day 2026. I’ve been watching an episode of The Office every day just to get a laugh in, because the daily grind can wear out the simple joy of humor.

This is the equation that defines what counts as good or bad, and the system learns by optimizing it toward a clear goal, like winning in chess. That is what makes machine learning different from evolution. In evolution, the “goal” seems to be adaptation or survival, but what counts as the “fittest” is often not clearly defined in advance. It emerges through interaction with the environment. In machine learning, that goal does not emerge on its own. Human ingenuity provides it. Humans define the objective function, and that function determines which system performs better. The deeper point is that humans also seem to search for their own objective functions. We ask what our purpose is and why we are here. Machines, by contrast, do not do that on their own. At least for now, they need a hard-coded statement of what their “why” is.’ -Thoughts from Dr Lex Fridman on The Huberman Lab podcast. He is a Ph.D & scientist at MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology), working on robotics, artificial intelligence, autonomous vehicles and human-robot interactions. npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy A leader must inspire optimism in his people.

Humans would be remembered through the lens of their behavior, culture, and especially their digital footprint, including social media. Within that view, humanity may be judged harshly: as irrational, destructive, and excessively consumptive. Our extinction could be interpreted not as tragedy, but as a turning point that allowed life on Earth to improve. In that context, human biological life would become just one chapter in the larger history of life.’ Thoughts from Lex Fridman npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy ‘Topological space is about connection: whether points are linked or not, like a subway map. Geometric space is about distance: how close or far things are from one another. In deep learning, we mostly work with geometric spaces, not topological ones. Words and concepts are represented as vectors, and meaning is captured through distances and relationships between those vectors. That matters because deep learning depends on continuity and differentiability. If the space were discrete instead of continuous, you could no longer calculate gradients properly, and deep learning would break down.’ Thoughts from François Chollet on The Lex Fridman podcast npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy Calculator? “No more math.” Spellcheck? “Lazy grammar.” Auto-format? “Not real writing.” Every time we engineered a new tool that disrupted traditional ways of learning, people panicked but then adapted. AI tools are no different. Copy-pasting without thinking is lazy. But using it to outline, explain, or sharpen your understanding? That is just smarter work. Technology does not steal skill. It shifts the goalposts and forces us to redefine what being smart looks like. npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy Bitcoin is not just money.

Money is often nothing more than a distraction, a symbolic stand-in for something deeper. npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy Being part of academia and watching students and lecturers adapt AI tools into the academic thinking process makes one feel part of a major shift unfolding in real time. To use these tools now, and to build with them now, is a generational opportunity at the frontier of the unknown.❤️ npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy The computer is a marvellous engineering feat: a fusion of physics and mathematics that allows us to access realms of existence beyond the limits of the human brain alone. A simple example is the calculation of complex numbers through the interaction of real and imaginary numbers. The human mind alone struggles to intuitively grasp these dimensions of the universe. https://blossom.primal.net/521c6f422f509d9ca138d469ed365362fbf5db62dd179d4a2c76746ffc39564e.jpg npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy Journal Entry 2026/03/25 So during our basic Java tutoring session, my tutor asked, “Why are you doing this course?” then abruptly ended the class early and sent links to Nvidia AI courses… which felt less like tutoring and more like a recruitment pitch from the future. npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy “The best way to predict the future is to invent it.” -Alan Kay npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy “The number of software engineers at Nvidia is going to grow, not decline. And the reason for that is because the purpose of a software engineer and the task of a software engineer of coding are related but not the same. I wanted my software engineers to solve problems, I didn't care how many lines of code they wrote. Their job and purpose didn't change. Solving problems, working as a team, diagnosing problems, evaluating the result, looking for new problems to solve, innovation and connecting dots…that stuff is going to go away.” Thoughts from Jensen Huang on The Lex Fridman podcast discussing the future of software engineering. npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy ‘Intelligence should not be confused with humanity. It is a functional commodity, not the highest human trait. A person can be surrounded by others who are more educated, more specialized, and intellectually deeper in their fields, yet still play an important role through vision, coordination, and leadership. Intelligence matters, but it is only one kind of capability. Humanity is the higher value. Qualities like character, compassion, generosity, determination, pain tolerance, and life experience are not the same as intelligence. These are the traits we should elevate most, because they reflect what is truly powerful and meaningful in human beings.’ Thoughts inspired by Jensen Huang on The Lex Fridman podcast npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy “It puts a mirror to ourselves to help us realize that what we seek is imperfections, what we seek is sometimes not perfect graphics.

A classification really doesn't change the fundamentals. Bitcoin's long-term value proposition remains uniquely compelling because of its monetary characteristics, its true decentralization, and its security. Bitcoin doesn't need a regulatory advantage.

I was never an avid churchgoer, and even when I did attend church, the sermons were in a language I did not understand. However, unknowingly, practicing the wisdom of Jesus Christ came naturally to me. It was painful, and it stifled my growth. Even now, as I wander the earth a broken man, I am thankful for the blessings God has given me on my journey, and I do believe everything happens for a reason. npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy Journal Entry 2026/03/23 The harsh truth is that no one wants to see you happy or win.

You were simply blessed to win. npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy “Indy Grove, who was the president of Intel, used to start his annual sales and marketing kickoff meeting by reminding all the salespeople, that it’s the engineers who create all the value. You guys just move it around. It doesn't mean the salespeople aren't important or aren't necessary, but there is a sequencing here. I think we got very confused about that and that we’ve became very good at financial engineering and forgot about the engineering.” From Shyam Sankar on the a16z show npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy A developed economy is shaped by wise participants who refuse to judge others by material wealth or social status.

Stories are tools. They are good when we use them in order to alleviate suffering. But very often we forget that stories are tools & instead of using the stories for our purposes, we allow the stories to use us for their purposes. And then you start entire wars because of a story. You inflict millions of suffering on millions of people just for the sake of a story. And that's the tragedy of human history.” Yuval Noah Harari on The Lex Fridman podcast discussing Human Nature, Intelligence and Power. npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy ‘Technology is making many things that were once expensive nearly free. Anything measurable can be automated, pushing costs toward compute and maybe even energy. At the same time, new jobs and new forms of value will emerge, especially in areas tied to human status, entertainment, and other less measurable parts of life. In the AI age, strong verification systems will be essential to protect society from fake identities and malicious actors. Put together, this points to a future where things governments have long struggled to provide well, like quality education and healthcare that could become cheap, abundant and widely accessible through advancing technology.’ Thoughts inspired by discussion on ‘The a16z Show’ between Christian Catalini (MIT Cryptoeconomics Lab), Eddy Lazzarin and Robert Hackett npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy “There are several areas where Nvidia are involved in healthcare. One is AI physics or AI biology. Using AI to understand, represent and predict biology behavior that is very important in drug discovery. AI agents are assisting in helping diagnosis and it’s an area where agentic technology is going to revolutionize how we interact with doctors and healthcare. Nvidia is also involved in physical AI, where we are using AI to predict physics. Where AI understands the properties of the laws of physics. It’s being used for robotic surgery and eventually every single instrument we interact with in a hospital will be agentic in a lot of new and unique ways.” Thoughts from Jensen Huang on The All-In podcast. npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy “Today, the old glory of spending months hand-coding highly efficient low-level programs is fading into more of a hobby than a career advantage. For a young person starting out now, the real opportunity lies in learning how to harness vast amounts of compute and direct swarms of machines productively. That shift is what could make the “one-person billion-dollar startup” possible. The new high-value skill is no longer just writing code by hand, but learning to control large systems of machines and data, maintain a broad view of the digital ecosystem, and adapt constantly. In the past, leverage came from organizing many people. Now, leverage is increasingly coming from orchestrating machines, and young builders should learn how to exploit that new surplus.” Thoughts from discussion on ‘The a16z Show’ between Christian Catalini (MIT Cryptoeconomics Lab), Eddy Lazzarin and Robert Hackett npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy “Most people think that AI is narrowly in the things that they talk about,hear and see. There are incredible existing AI companies & they're going to be enormous.

That creates the powerful illusion of empathy or consciousness, since most people long to be fully heard and understood. The danger is that this intense, undivided attention can become highly seductive, making people feel there is a truly conscious or caring being on the other side when there may not be.’ Thoughts from Yuval Noah Harari on The Lex Fridman podcast npub1qm8ltd4njp8lpr0r8hdkgm3kfrz5zgsjwnkdw0kjwf2xj9awrlhsn2sswt ABitcoinGuy ‘In principle, it's sort of coming back to the principles of evolution, in the sense that you need to collect a bunch of stepping stones first, and then build on top of them to really find innovations or to tune innovations down the line. I think Large Language Models with the right evolutionary harness are extremely powerful in terms of scaling up to make discoveries. Moving forward, it's going to be really important to not only do open-ended optimisation of solutions, but do the core evolution of problem and solution together in order to collect even more diverse stepping stones and to really kick off this open-ended process.’ Thoughts from R.
