Cavemen Issues Dire Warning That The Wheel Is Going To Eliminate Countless Jobs

you wanna know why crypto is just speculation and gambling now?
put yourself in the shoes of an actual dev who showed up to the space relatively early, say 2018-2020.
consider what it feels like to be someone with an elite background putting in 60-100h weeks every week, while watching people who trade full-time out earn you on a weekly basis
consider watching the other builders who take the predatory deals from VCs get rich by dumping on their community and then retiring with no consequences
consider how it feels to have your treasury get destroyed by FTX or Anchor and to be left with nothing while half the people involved just walk away
how many would still be left? 10%, 20%?
then go through the pumpfun era. watch people who launch bundled scams calling themselves "devs" and once again, out-earning you
march through multiple bear markets, do it all without rugging, and watch the protocols who fuck people over win over and over and over again
deal with the fact that everyone outside of tech assumes you are the same sort of person as the people who retired off rugs, think about how it feels to be labelled a "crypto scammer" by default if you talk about your job as one of the only people trying to actually build things
then, after all that, consider that a new, uber-fast moving industry full of new frontier tech shows up next door and sucks up all the VC funding
would you still be in "Web3"? would you still be committed To The Vision?
no, you would not. you'd either rug, or move on. and that's what everybody did.

Palestinians who oppose Hamas's terrorism are too often unwelcome in the pro-Palestine movement. That is the unfortunate reality.
It doesn't matter how outspoken you are about Israeli crimes against Palestinians, or even that you are Palestinian yourself. You can still be excluded, doxxed, and harassed simply for speaking out against Hamas.
The leaders of the pro-Palestine movement in the West have completely adopted Hamas's narrative. Question it, and you're out. Today, as some celebrate October 7, they'll call you a traitor for saying what should be obvious: murdering and kidnapping civilians is terrorism and a crime against humanity. It won't matter what else you've said or how long you've fought for Palestinian rights.

Mayor Mamdani devoted only 49 words of a 211-word statement to commemorate the worst single day attack on Jews since the Holocaust, in a city that is home to the largest Jewish population outside Israel. He avoided any real description of what happened on October 7, including mass murder, burnings, beheadings, executions, and sadism toward Jews, Arabs, and foreign workers, including women, children, teenagers, and the elderly. He refused to call Hamas a terrorist organization or acknowledge that none of this would have happened had the group honored the ceasefire it unilaterally broke. There was no assignment of agency or responsibility to any Palestinian actor.
Yet he used the remaining 162 words to describe in detail what happened in Gaza after the attack. He showed full capacity to recognize Palestinian suffering, which is real and must be acknowledged, but his statement was tone deaf, inconsiderate, and antagonizing to millions who deserve their trauma recognized on its own terms. He has spoken endlessly about his anti-Israel views and will continue to do so, but this was the one day in which he could have offered unconditional compassion to the victims and survivors of October 7 and their loved ones, many of whom have deep roots in New York.
This type of statement ignores basic logical principles like cause and effect, choices and consequences, actions and reactions, priorities and implications, further infantilizing the Palestinians and ignoring the failures of Hamas and Palestinian leadership that have harmed their own people. It hardens attitudes toward Gazans and reduces empathy for the vast and unspeakable suffering in the coastal enclave, rather than increasing it.
@NYCMayor: sometimes less is better. You should have stayed with your first 49 words, especially as unhinged โpro-Palestine activistsโ are celebrating October 7 today across the country. Stand up to your base, Mr. Mamdani. You have already won and do not need to appease radicals at the expense of Jewish New Yorkers. And please stop pretending that this is about helping Palestinians or caring for Gazans.

Dear Mayor Mamdani,
Every single innocent Palestinian who has died in Gaza is a tragedy, but to be morally consistent, you should solely blame Hamas, which waged this war in an attempt to annihilate Israel.
Hamas is the real genocide-seeker: it wants to annihilate Israel but it canโt, while Israel could annihilate Gaza but chooses not to.
The evil of Hamas and radical Islamists has reached New York City, and I pray you wake up before that evil gets out of control in your city.
Make the morally correct decision and listen to those who know.

Solana's DeFi Summer moment has not happened yet.
The 2024-2025 memecoin mania was not DeFi, it was another wave of user generated assets like NFTs fueled by massive airdrops and user onboarding.
That was the stress test. Now the real cycle begins...

Some thoughts on Darioโs post:
1. Dario does not actually address Gavin Bakerโs account of what he said โ something he could easily deny if it were inaccurate.
2. Dario claims his critics live in a โbubbleโ where all regulation equals regulatory capture. He calls this an overly simplified view and notes that โMany people outside this bubble think of regulation as something that constrains corporate power and benefits ordinary people.โ This argument is a straw man. Of course treating all regulation as capture would be overly simplified โ but almost no one holds that view. I have repeatedly argued for strong antitrust enforcement to keep industries competitive, especially Big Tech. If Anthropic continues toward monopoly or duopoly status, I would be among the first to demand those rules apply.
3. Regulatory capture is not vague or in the eye of the beholder. Nobel laureate George Stigler defined it as regulation acquired by an industry and designed and operated primarily for its benefit. Stigler challenged the traditional view that government regulation arises from a benevolent state protecting the public from market failures. Rather, industry groups have concentrated stakes and pour resources into influencing regulators, whereas the publicโs stake is diffuse and unorganized. The revolving door between companies and the agencies that regulate them compounds the problem. Anthropic understands these dynamics: it has hired multiple senior Biden AI-policy officials and built a substantial government-affairs operation plus a network of aligned organizations to push its preferred frameworks at state and federal levels.
4. Dario has consistently pushed for a new federal agency to review and approve frontier models prior to release โ a proposal framed variously as an โFDA for AI,โ an โFAA for AI,โ and most recently a โFINRA for AI.โ I call it a โDMV for AIโ because a review process modeled on the FAA or FDA (which takes years) or FINRA (which issues rules for a staid industry widely seen as protecting incumbents) will create long queues as AI models wait for testing and approval. This process will only become more labyrinthine as rules accumulate to prevent theoretical harms. This would handicap the U.S. relative to China, which will not adopt the same constraints. It would also undermine Anthropicโs own business model, whose pricing power depends on remaining ahead of open models. Whatever Dario states today, it is difficult to believe the company would simply accept outcomes that erase that advantage.
5. Anthropic is on track to become one of the most valuable companies in history, with the resources to navigate any approval process and shape the rules while competitors wait. Dario wants open models under heavier scrutiny โ he has called them dangerous in Senate testimony, criticized them for not being centrally monitored or withdrawn, and linked them to IP theft. He says he has never sought a ban, but he could achieve a similar result by insisting that identical rules apply to both open and closed models. The U.S. risks becoming an island of costly closed models while the rest of the world races ahead with broader choice.
6. Dario acknowledges that AI is structurally centralizing but attributes this mainly to chips and scaling laws. Access to compute matters, but the deeper risk is who decides which capabilities are available to whom. His preferred pre-deployment testing and FAA/FINRA-style oversight would place that gatekeeping power in a federal bureaucracy working hand-in-glove with a small number of frontier labs โ reinforcing centralization rather than countering it.
7. The second part of Darioโs post assumes we have amnesia about Anthropicโs well-orchestrated campaigns hyping AI fears. His May 2025 claim that AI would wipe out 50 percent of entry-level knowledge jobs within five years still lacks supporting evidence fifteen months later. Similarly Anthropic breathlessly promoted its heavily contrived โblackmailโ study on 60 Minutes. Yet Dario blames public negativity on a long-standing loss of trust in institutions rather than his own messaging.
8. These narratives have done more than anything to shape public fear. People are left asking the same question Mark Zuckerberg posed: why race to build a future you describe in such negative terms? Thomas Sowellโs "The Vision of the Anointed" captures the mindset โ elite intellectuals convinced that only they are enlightened enough to control the outcome. As Zuckerberg notes, concentrating power in the hands of an enlightened few has rarely produced the promised results; the practitioners turn out to be less enlightened in practice than in self-conception.
9. Gavin Baker summarized the disagreement cleanly on our pod: Dario believes frontier AI is too powerful to distribute; we believe it is too powerful to centralize. Dario appears to believe, sincerely, that safety and progress are best served by centralizing authority in a marriage of corporate and state power. The weight of human history gives us reason to fear that outcome.

the latest qwen open source model is smart like a college mba student
can reason decently well but lacks practical real world experience
and anyone can download and run it locally, just needs like 32gb of memory with less than 20gb of space
while the latest codex and grok models are elite at self-improving workflows
i remember reading this article a decade ago, and it resonates even more today

here is the thing though
decentralization seems like the safest defense against artificial super intelligence in any single actor's hands
because absolute power corrupts absolutely
so I appreciate @b1ackd0g going into AI defense with his insights about blockchain technology to save humanity
