I would be for a state owned chain, does not have to be completely decentralized, it’s just good tech that can make the payment processors of today obselete.

Basically require each bank to run nodes, while letting the central bank of the country hold the keys to mint new coins.

I mean one could also have verifying nodes run independent.

The tech is there, doesn’t have to mean use anarchy moneys, it just means an overhaul of our ways of transferring value around.

So basically it could help combat our blatant consumerism as well? Seems like a win to me

Wow, people start caring when they come for their porn. These duopolies should be broken up, people should adopt crypto payments.

I wish this was the goal, instead of large corpos doing large corpos things

Eh, just make shit up. Works for the world elite

You could also go the other way, if you are smart incapable of being efficient at me menial labour. You will go hungry, until such a time you are hungry enough to do the menial labour for very cheap.

Turning us into two distinctly separate classes, low educated low intelligence, and high intelligence, highly educated elites controlling swarms of smart AI

I admire your positivity. I do not share it though, because from what I have seen, because even if there are open weights, the one with the biggest datacenter will in the future hold the most intelligent and performance model.

Very similar to how even if storage space is very cheap today, large companies are holding all the data anyway.

AI will go the same way, and thus the megacorps will and in some extent already are owning not only our data, but our thoughts and the ability to modify them.

I mean, sponsored prompt injection is just the first thought modifying thing, imagine Google search sponsored hits, but instead it’s a hyperconvincing AI response that subtly nudges you to a certain brand or way of thinking.

Absolutely terrifies me, especially with all the research Meta has done on how to manipulate people’s mood and behaviour through which social media posts they are presented with

I’ll just ask chatgpt to do the research and vote for me

Yeah because if everyone is extremely cheap labour everyone will prosper? :)

The “if” is working overtime in your statement

But oh so lucrative, and with a catchy phrase…

I see moneybags in this idea, wonder who will first make it a reality…

So if the AI generated summaries are better than man made summaries, this would not be an issue would it?

Lol, the source data for all AI is starting to use AI to summarize.

Have you ever tried to zip a zipfile?

But then on the other hand, as compilers become better, they become more efficient at compiling their own source code…

Whatever you think about drugs and their legality doesn’t really matter when you look at how the legal system is applied here. As previous poster stated, this just shows that the legal system is broken as hell and only applies when used to control the common person.

Shits fucked up in the land of the free for sure.

Easy, it’s actually hard enough to join Lemmy in comparison to the other sites, that I don’t believe the masses will ever flood here.

That isn’t necessarily a bad thing, althought I still have to follow my favourite projects on discord and reddit . Since they are publishing for the masses

If I care about my account, it would suck. Can’t migrate unless server allows me to

Yeah, but this only works because we are so few still, when the masses floods in anywhere, everything turns to shit. Because of greed

Everybody should slam that, not only experts

Wow, actually really cool usecase and tech!

The bad thing about those kind of shows, is that while most people see that as a warning, and something to avoid.

Some people immediately start charting a path to how to make it a reality, and sometimes those people are very very smart and can chart a path that might take decades.

I say this while on the toilet, writing on a device that has cameras both front and back, always on microphones and location sensors, and facial recognition and 3D scanning equipment.

When the personalized condom ads start popping up, I will only be slightly annoyed.
