Ours is the era of inadequate AI alignment theory. Any other facts about this era are relatively unimportant, but sometimes I tweet about them anyway.

    Stop suggesting that the first strong AI will be on a blockchain. Just stop. Stop. Take a look in a mirror. Is this how you want to live?

        I think there's no important difference or clear boundary between "AI" and "organizations" (corporations, governments, etc.).

        Continuum fallacy. See https://arbital.com/p/corps_vs_si/  and also https://arbital.com/p/harmless_supernova/ ….

        It would fallacious to say “There's a continuum between them therefore they're not importantly different.”.

        I'm saying they're not importantly different, or better that is misleading to think of them separately.

        Of course you have those who will tell you that Bitcoin or DAOs *are* AI.

        Weak AIs/simple optimizers wielding lots of cryptocurrency is problematic. Specially if we get zk-smart contracts.

        You can even call a ransomware an AI, but that's not what people mean when they talk about AI appearing on a blockchain. Or maybe it is but

        they're all too happy to create an amalgam - Hey, this is kind of an AI - Hey AI also refers to something far more powerful - AI blockchain!

        I have suggested running ems as proof-of-work in blockchains. Great incentive for all to keep economy going. Forks are a headache, though.

        You are probably right. The first AI probably won't be on a blockchain, but maybe the last will.
