We often discuss #Bitcoin and #AI as two different things, but they are both manifestations of the same underlying invention: the computer, Alan Turing's thinking machine. When we think about where this technology is taking us and how we should wield it for good, it is important we keep this unification in mind.
AI is here to potentially free us from the burden of labor to a degree never before seen in human history. Bitcoin is here to make sure that the wealth generated and the energy utilized is properly managed, and is done so fairly, honestly, without manipulation, central control, or extraction from one group to the other.
AI will bring about wealth generation, but this will only be experienced fairly and equally across all people if we have sound money through Bitcoin. These two heads of the same dragon are working synergistically with each other. We are actively watching AI harden Bitcoin and make the software stack more resilient to cybersecurity threats. Bitcoin will help seek out stranded energy, making it cheaper for the consumer despite the ongoing data center needs of AI.
The computer can either be used as a tool of enslavement or one that brings freedom and abundance. In order for us to wield the sword correctly, let us be sure that we are properly analyzing this tool as a holistic machine.
