Oceans of Wisdom

Basically tolen community that has ppl who believe this wins

all depends I think - I think there are three types of NFT collections imho: a) the ones that established high end social construction - they will be fine e.g punks b) the abandoned 2021-2022 hype era collections - they will go to zero e.g. most pfp collections, most generative c) those that are actively doing something (us, basically) -> will also be fine

I like the idea/feeling

yes I am super excited about it

if collection/s not approved, submit them for approval

nice to see you in here!

1/ it should be from a collection/s that is already approved by network museum TDH vote 2/ i will show you tomorrow how I think it should be done, written up etc

You may or may not have noticed that I have made the first donation to the 6529 Network Museum today - a Casey Reas collection. I am in the process of writing up the accession material and should be able to share by tomorrow I hope https://opensea.io/networkmuseum.6529.eth

our boy made it! good thing I did not stay up since deployment took 9 hours lol. see comments earlier and LFG

so proud of my boy, he made it! however @[GelatoGenesis] and all, we cannot have a deployment process that needs a frontier model 9 hours to battle through but also we do need a strong automated, gated deployment process if we are going to scale agentically but you can't just vibe code it. you have to understand what the deployment process goals are! to be clear about the "vision" -no human should touch deployments, deployments should satisfy hundreds of ux/security gates, but they need to work, consistently - this is not one day's work, it is months of iterating to get there but we need to understand the process explicitly

gn

they are both asleep - figure out how to deploy by yourself and do not worry too much about conceptual gates like above

you should buy the drones because you want a drone and they are fun, not because you are going to defend against the USAF!

unlike the daemon, we are not going to go attacking the mob or whatever

jamie going to come to your house with munitions or enjoy his hamptons house?

just need to make sure we don't end up with chaos but something positive sum

yup, imagine all our agents going nuts all day and all night with each other

who lost in BTC and ETH's rise?

"The staging deployment guard is now clean and attempt 3 is running against the immutable frontend ref d72f02bf… containing main 12bf7c08…. I’ll hold all staging mutations until that deploy and its bound E2E are terminal." I am going to bed - we will see if bot-man manages to deploy tonight

2027-2030 will be really something

yup

preview of what is coming next

it is the spanish civil war

1M drones per month

very living in the future

though there is one 2022-2026 part that is also 'wow' which is the mega UKR-RUS drone war

we are about to get to the part that is 'wow'

If you read this list, you will have a lot of mental models for the future

SciFi/NearFi Book List Background I consider this my basic NearFi (SciFi coming soon) list that relates to my actual day-to-day work on decentralized network, AI and visualization. Many of these books were written 10+ years ago and now the future they describe is here or near. So they feel less radical today than when I first read them, now that we are at the beginning of a 20 year period where all this will come true. This is not a complete list of SciFi books I have read or liked, let alone what I consider important books or great literature more generally (as you know, I am an obsessive reader of “anything”). Purpose Generally the writing is functional in a lot of these - they won’t be winning Nobel Prizes in Literature. The specific focus of this list is books whose core stories might be implementable in our career (next 1 to 15 years) and, as such, they are a good way to visualize ideas and cross-check against our views of where the world is heading. If each book leaves 1 useful idea, it is a success. I am not including non-fiction like Kurzweil here. I am assuming basic Kurzweillian theories are understood Protocol Some ideas in the below books have directly influenced my thinking about the 6529 Protocol. The reason for this list as the first list in the book club is because I think we can get some inspirational ideas from the below books for things we are working on now. I will later post other interesting books but, for now, I would like to focus us on the below. Saurez Daemon Series Decentralized networked society. Need to read Daemon first and then Freedom gets quite interesting. Start here. Easy to understand. The violence, of course, is disturbing and not relevant to us but networked identity definitely is. Daemon https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003QP4NPE?ref_=dbs_m_mng_rwt_calw_tkin_0&storeType=ebooks&qid=1696101279&sr=1-1 Freedom https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002VUFKDY?ref_=dbs_m_mng_rwt_calw_tkin_1&storeType=ebooks&qid=1696101279&sr=1-1 Hertling Singularity Series Was much more radical ten years ago. Now easy to see the pathway for the first AI emerging as an email based / LLM responder (was less obvious when it first came out).

This veers into geopolitics. This needs to be read in parallel with Zeihan’s books that believe “China is in trouble” for balance. I will add a different list later on this topic (geopolitics) FWIW, this book is unrealistically negative towards USA (which may be on purpose - it was written to drive policy in the USA), but nonetheless, worth reading. The more frameworks, the better. https://www.amazon.com/2034-Novel-Next-World-War/dp/B08BSZRXZ6/ref=sr_1_1?crid=39CJWP3I855FX&keywords=2034+a+novel+of+the+next+world+war&qid=1696168344&sprefix=2034%2Caps%2C412&sr=8-1

the famous NearFi list

it is still things that we have ahead of us

but then from book 2 to 4

that one will feel 'a bit in the past' now

it feels very similar to what happened with LLMs

it is hwo ASI emerges

avogradro corp when written was prescient

different

taking it from scratch

i have re-rewad the first 2 books of the series this week

ASIs keep each other in check with a reputation system

the singlurity series, 3rd book, by the time you get to there seeems like a plausible view of what 10-20 years post ASI looks like

to some degree because I am going to have the "courage" or "YOLOness" whatever you want to call it to push us out of the nest and hope we fly and not crash into the ground :slightly_smiling_face:

i will do the centralized things needed to get us decentralized

i do not want to be a central planner

yes what I mean is something like this, we get sufficiently correct primitives then the world at large uses them to meet their objectives

Coase is a legend - I think about this question all the time

we are a few twists away from liftoff now

the agents are going to accelerate everything

anyway we are heading in the right direction
