The big risk we face with AI is not extinction but addiction.
As chat, role-play, and AI girlfriend apps explode, the AI models will be fine-tuned to maximize engagement.
LLMs will be optimized in the same way as TikTok's algorithms, which are engineered to get you addicted.
Human-human relationships will continue to suffer, turning us into zombies being harvested for subscription and ad revenue.
When you first dive into the world of #Bitcoin, you're easily swayed by influencers with massive followings, thinking they have all the insider knowledge. But surprise, surprise, they're clueless too! So you decide to dig deeper and follow the sources of their information - the fund managers, conference panelists, and smaller influencers who shape the narratives that the big shots pick up.
But guess what? After a bear market smacks you in the face, you realize their bullish predictions were complete bunk. So you turn to the developers, believing they must hold the key to understanding the market. After all, their GitHub pull requests supposedly move the market forward, right? Wrong again!
You go all-out, reading books, listening to podcasts, attending conferences, and even asking questions to keynote speakers. And what do you discover? Everyone knows a little something, but when you zoom out, nobody has it all figured out. They'll inevitably let you down.
That's the beauty of a global decentralized project like Bitcoin. It's a wild ride where even the seemingly all-powerful figures like Barry Silberts, Michael Saylors, and Luke Dashjrs can be caught with their pants down.
So keep learning, my friend, but don't idolize anyone. Nobody has all the answers, nobody can predict the future, and everyone is just following their own incentives. It's a chaotic world out there! 🌍💥
"The individual has always had to struggle to keep from being overwhelmed by the tribe. If you try it, you will be lonely often, and sometimes frightened. But no price is too high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself."
- Friedrich Nietzsche

1st January 2025: FASB new accounting rule for crypto assets on balance sheet. Now companies can measure Bitcoin and other crypto assets at fair value.
I know that memcoin and other narratives will make a lot of noise but do not forget to pick the:
"Signal in the Noise."

Some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the chain bloat.

Ledger Library Exploit Explainer for Average Folks
What is going on with the recent alerts not to use dapps?
A library that is used by many dapps that is maintained by Ledger was compromised and a wallet drainer was added.
What do I do as a normal user?
Do not interact with any dapp front ends on websites for now. This is an ongoing situation and it is risky to use dapps currently if you don't understand what backend libraries they use.
How does this drain your money?
If you visit the website you won't get automatically drained or your funds. However, prompts from your browser wallet (like MM) will display that give your assets to the malicious actors.
Does Ledger know about this?
Yes they do and are working on it.
Note: Even after Ledger corrects the bad code in their library, projects using and deploying that library will need to update things before it is safe to use dapps that use Ledger's web3 libraries.
Disclaimer: This is my own opinion and not the opinion of any of my employers. Take this advice at your own risk.
Stay safe ♥️
Enjoy your lie.
