The Future of Bitcoin

ABOUT THIS EPISODE

It’s always been hard to determine truth on the internet, which is central to why Hearsay Culture launched in 2006. Pessimism about the future has grown as misinformation proliferates and AI’s disruptive potential is realized. Dave Sifry, an experienced software entrepreneur, focuses on how to avoid such a future. In this episode of Uneven Distribution, recorded in December 2023, Denise and Dave explore the risks of AI misuse, as well as AI’s potential for good and improving efficiency. The conversation includes the unintended consequences of automation, the tendency of AI to hallucinate, the potential for individual learning, and how AI can enhance human connection.

 

Ai is not “this overlord that is telling us what to do.” We can “use AI to assist us in the things that humans do so well, which is connect with each other and have real relationships with each other.” 

-Dave Sifry

 

“I love those connections that make this big old world feel like a little village.”

-Gina Bellman
