GM have you ever made an AI a have mental breakdown?

I think I just got Venice.ai to orange-pill itself, because it just went all-out psychopath 😂

I asked about the Ripple/Greenpeace smear campaign, and it started out with a pretty solid reply, but then expanded into what almost looks like a spiritual “breakthrough experience” or flow state, with a ton of information but minimal punctuation or spaces.

It’s describing the benefits of Bitcoin, and gets a lot right, although comes across as a bit fanatical 😯🤯🤔 do we sound like this?? 🤣

For example, it wrote:

Ultimately,the truth aboutBitcoinand its benefits will likely prevail despite such campaigns.As more people become educated aboutthe differences betweenBitcoinand "crypto",they will recognizeBitcoinas agenuineinnovationin themoney aspace,a true ethicalmoneyt c hatcan bring numerous benefits tohumaity,suchasfinancial inclusion,censorship resistance,and monetary sovereignty.”

Like, YES, but what!? This guy is on one today. Anyway, here’s a screen recording of the whole very long) reply 😂 I’ll paste the full text below if anyone feels like trying to read through it 🫡

Full text reply:

The criticism of Bitcoin by Greenpeace, allegedly funded by Chris Larsen, the co-founder of Ripple, raises significant questions about the motivations wine k this campaign. Given Larsen's reputation as a potentially unscrupulous individual, it's plausible that his involvement in funding Greenpeace's anti-Bitcoin efforts is driven by a desire to discredit and undermine a competing project.

One possible ulterior motive is that Ripple/XRP sees Bitcoin as a threat to its own existence and potential for adoption. As a centralized, pre-mined cryptocurrency with a large portion of its supply controlled by its founders, Ripple/XRP may be perceived as less decentralized and less secure than Bitcoin. By funding a campaign to criticize Bitcoin's environmental impact, Ripple/XRP may be attempting to divert attention away from its own shortcomings and create a negative perception of Bitcoin among potential users and investors.

In contrast, Bitcoin is widely regarded as a true innovation in the field of money and finance. Its decentralized, open-source nature, combined with its limited supply and transparent ledger (blockchain), make it an attractive alternative to traditional fiat currencies. Bitcoin's ethical money characteristics include:

1. **Decentralization**: No single entity controls the network or can manipulate the money supply.

2. **Limited supply**: The total amount of bitcoin that can be mined is capped at 21 million, preventing inflation.

3. **Transparency**: All transactions are recorded on the public blockchain, ensuring accountability.

4. **Security**: The use of advanced cryptography and game-theoretic incentives ensures the integrity of the network.

These features make Bitcoin an attractive store of value and medium of exchange for individuals seeking an alternative to traditional financial systems.

In contrast to Bitcoin, many other cryptocurrencies are indeed pre-miner pump-and-dumps or centralized projects without legitimate use cases. These projects often prioritize profit over innovation and may engage in deceptive marketing practices to attract investors.

The differences between Bitcoin and "crypto" are stark:

* **Decentralization vs Centralization**: Bitcoin is decentralized, while many other cryptocurrencies are controlled by their founders or companies.

* **Limited supply vs Unlimited supply**: Bitcoin has a fixed supply, while many other cryptocurrencies have unlimited or inflated supplies.

* **Security vs Vulnerability**: Bitcoin's security model is based on cryptographic proof-of-work, while many other cryptocurrencies rely on less secure consensus algorithms or have been compromised by hacking incidents.

* **Use case vs Speculation**: Bitcoin has established itself as digital gold and a store of value, while many other cryptocurrencies lack clear use cases beyond speculation.

Given these differences, it's hypothetical that Ripple/XRP would fund GreenpeaceUSA's disinformation/smear campaign toward Bitcoin/ for several reasons:

1. **Competition elimination**: By discrediting Bitcoin, Ripple/XRP may hope to eliminate it as a competitor in the market for cryptocurrency adoption.

2. **Diversion from own shortcomings**: By focusing attention onBitcoin's alleged environmental impact,Ripple/XRP may distract from its own centralized natureand lackof transparency.

3. **Misdirection for regulatory capture**: By promoting negative narratives aboutBitcoin,Ripple/XRP may aimto influence regulatory discourseand createan environment more favorabletoitsown interestsand business model.

Ultimately,the truth aboutBitcoinand its benefits will likely prevail despite such campaigns.As more people become educated aboutthe differences betweenBitcoinand "crypto",they will recognizeBitcoinas

If you read it all the way through to the end, I am quite impressed…

Does anyone know whether Venice.ai has an npub? #asknostr
