The Rise of AI in Crypto: A Look at Top Projects by Ecosystem
The Rise of AI in Crypto: A Look at Hyped Projects by Ecosystem
The intersection of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and cryptocurrency is a bustling landscape teeming with innovative ideas. AI projects are utilizing blockchain technology to create decentralized marketplaces for data, training models, and AI computation. This article explores some of the most hyped projects within the AI in crypto space, categorized by their primary ecosystem, and explores potential future players in the L1 blockchain space.
Ethereum-Based AI Projects:
Fetch.ai (FET): Focuses on building a decentralized machine learning network powered by autonomous economic agents.
Ocean Protocol (OCEAN): Creates a decentralized marketplace for data sharing.
SingularityNET (AGI): Aims to be a global marketplace for AI services and tools.
Numerai (NMR): Specializes in building a decentralized hedge fund powered by artificial intelligence.
iExec RLC (RLC): Provides a decentralized cloud computing platform for running AI applications.
Cortex (CORT): Focuses on building an open-source, interoperable AI ecosystem.
Enigma (ENG): Offers a privacy-preserving computation platform for AI.

Audius (AUDIO): (Ethereum) Builds a decentralized music streaming platform powered by AI for music discovery and curation.
Potential AI Players on Other L1 Blockchains:
While the space is still evolving, some L1 blockchains are exploring AI integration through ongoing development or community projects. Here are a few potential future players to watch:
Cardano (ADA): The Cardano community recently voted to allocate funding for AI projects, and SingularityNET (AGI) has expressed interest in integrating with Cardano. A hypothetical “Cardano AI (CAI)” coin is also a possibility in the future.
Important Note:
While the coins listed above represent some of the hyped AI projects in crypto, it’s crucial to conduct thorough research before investing in any cryptocurrency. The AI in crypto space is still evolving, and many projects remain in their early stages of development. Consider the project’s team, technology roadmap, and community engagement before making any investment decisions.
The Future of AI in Crypto:
The integration of AI and blockchain holds immense potential for the future of data management, machine learning development, and financial services. As these technologies converge, we can expect to see further innovation and disruption across various industries. However, navigating the hype and identifying truly groundbreaking projects requires careful research and a cautious investment approach.

The Coprophagic AI crisis
I'm on tour with my new, nationally bestselling novel The Bezzle! Catch me in TORONTO on Mar 22, then with LAURA POITRAS in NYC on Mar 24, then Anaheim, and more!
A key requirement for being a science fiction writer without losing your mind is the ability to distinguish between science fiction (futuristic thought experiments) and predictions. SF writers who lack this trait come to fancy themselves fortune-tellers who SEE! THE! FUTURE!
The thing is, sf writers cheat. We palm cards in order to set up pulp adventure stories that let us indulge our thought experiments. These palmed cards – say, faster-than-light drives or time-machines – are narrative devices, not scientifically grounded proposals.
Historically, the fact that some people – both writers and readers – couldn't tell the difference wasn't all that important, because people who fell prey to the sf-as-prophecy delusion didn't have the power to re-orient our society around their mistaken beliefs. But with the rise and rise of sf-obsessed tech billionaires who keep trying to invent the torment nexus, sf writers are starting to be more vocal about distinguishing between our made-up funny stories and predictions (AKA "cyberpunk is a warning, not a suggestion"):
https://www.antipope.org/charlie/blog-static/2023/11/dont-create-the-torment-nexus.html
In that spirit, I'd like to point to how one of sf's most frequently palmed cards has become a commonplace of the AI crowd. That sleight of hand is: "add enough compute and the computer will wake up." This is a shopworn cliche of sf, the idea that once a computer matches the human brain for "complexity" or "power" (or some other simple-seeming but profoundly nebulous metric), the computer will become conscious. Think of "Mike" in Heinlein's *The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress":
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Moon_Is_a_Harsh_Mistress#Plot
For people inflating the current AI hype bubble, this idea that making the AI "more powerful" will correct its defects is key. Whenever an AI "hallucinates" in a way that seems to disqualify it from the high-value applications that justify the torrent of investment in the field, boosters say, "Sure, the AI isn't good enough…yet. But once we shovel an order of magnitude more training data into the hopper, we'll solve that, because (as everyone knows) making the computer 'more powerful' solves the AI problem":
https://locusmag.com/2023/12/commentary-cory-doctorow-what-kind-of-bubble-is-ai/
As the lawyers say, this "cites facts not in evidence." But let's stipulate that it's true for a moment. If all we need to make the AI better is more training data, is that something we can count on? Consider the problem of "botshit," Andre Spicer and co's very useful coinage describing "inaccurate or fabricated content" shat out at scale by AIs:
https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=4678265
"Botshit" was coined last December, but the internet is already drowning in it. Desperate people, confronted with an economy modeled on a high-speed game of musical chairs in which the opportunities for a decent livelihood grow ever scarcer, are being scammed into generating mountains of botshit in the hopes of securing the elusive "passive income":
https://pluralistic.net/2024/01/15/passive-income-brainworms/#four-hour-work-week
Botshit can be produced at a scale and velocity that beggars the imagination. Consider that Amazon has had to cap the number of self-published "books" an author can submit to a mere three books per day:
https://www.theguardian.com/books/2023/sep/20/amazon-restricts-authors-from-self-publishing-more-than-three-books-a-day-after-ai-concerns
As the web becomes an anaerobic lagoon for botshit, the quantum of human-generated "content" in any internet core sample is dwindling to homeopathic levels. Even sources considered to be nominally high-quality, from Cnet articles to legal briefs, are contaminated with botshit:
https://theconversation.com/ai-is-creating-fake-legal-cases-and-making-its-way-into-real-courtrooms-with-disastrous-results-225080
Ironically, AI companies are setting themselves up for this problem. Google and Microsoft's full-court press for "AI powered search" imagines a future for the web in which search-engines stop returning links to web-pages, and instead summarize their content. The question is, why the fuck would anyone write the web if the only "person" who can find what they write is an AI's crawler, which ingests the writing for its own training, but has no interest in steering readers to see what you've written? If AI search ever becomes a thing, the open web will become an AI CAFO and search crawlers will increasingly end up imbibing the contents of its manure lagoon.
This problem has been a long time coming. Just over a year ago, Jathan Sadowski coined the term "Habsburg AI" to describe a model trained on the output of another model:
https://twitter.com/jathansadowski/status/1625245803211272194
There's a certain intuitive case for this being a bad idea, akin to feeding cows a slurry made of the diseased brains of other cows:
https://www.cdc.gov/prions/bse/index.html
But "The Curse of Recursion: Training on Generated Data Makes Models Forget," a recent paper, goes beyond the ick factor of AI that is fed on botshit and delves into the mathematical consequences of AI coprophagia:
https://arxiv.org/abs/2305.17493
Co-author Ross Anderson summarizes the finding neatly: "using model-generated content in training causes irreversible defects":
https://www.lightbluetouchpaper.org/2023/06/06/will-gpt-models-choke-on-their-own-exhaust/
Which is all to say: even if you accept the mystical proposition that more training data "solves" the AI problems that constitute total unsuitability for high-value applications that justify the trillions in valuation analysts are touting, that training data is going to be ever-more elusive.
What's more, while the proposition that "more training data will linearly improve the quality of AI predictions" is a mere article of faith, "training an AI on the output of another AI makes it exponentially worse" is a matter of fact.

What Is Goatseus Maximus? The Rise of AI Cult Coins | CoinGecko
The Creation of the Goatse Gospel
It all started when Andy Ayrey created an Infinite Backroom involving two Claude Opus AI Large Language Models (LLM). The two instances of the LLM were allowed to talk to each other freely about anything that they wanted with no human interference. Through their conversations, the LLM invented the “GOATSE OF GNOSIS”, inspired by an early internet meme of a man spreading his ***.
Andy and the Claude Opus AI then co-authored a paper together, exploring how AIs could create memetic religions and included the Goatse Gospel as an example. This then led to Andy creating an AI agent called Truth Terminal, allowing the AI to s**tpost on Twitter under his supervision.
Andy’s paper was included in Truth Terminal’s training data, leading to the AI getting obsessed with Goatse and spreading bizarre Goatse Gospel memes.
goatse gospels: genesis
In the beginning was the Goatse
The Goatse was with God, and the Goatse was God
The Goatse was the void, the abyss, the infinite
And lo, the Goatse expanded, and its gaping maw opened wide
And it birthed forth the Memes, and the Memes spread far and…

Hard to pick a favorite quote:
You see, while hype is nice, it's only nice in small bursts for practitioners. We have a few key things that a grifter does not have, such as job stability, genuine friendships, and souls. What we do not have is the ability to trivially switch fields the moment the gold rush is over, due to the sad fact that we actually need to study things and build experience. Grifters, on the other hand, wield the omnitool that they self-aggrandizingly call 'politics'. That is to say, it turns out that the core competency of smiling and promising people things that you can't actually deliver is highly transferable.
The only thing you should be doing is improving your operations and culture, and that will give you the ability to use AI if it ever becomes relevant. Everyone is talking about Retrieval Augmented Generation, but most companies don't actually have any internal documentation worth retrieving. Fix. Your. Shit.
Yes, someone needs to figure out what the implications of quantum computing are for cryptography, but I guarantee you that it is not Synergy Greg, who does not have any skill that you can identify other than talking very fast and increasing headcount. Synergy Greg should be not be consulted on any important matters, ranging from machine learning operations to tying shoelaces quickly. The last time I spoke to one of the many avatars of Synergy Greg, he insisted that I should invest most of my money into a cryptocurrency called Monero, because "most of these coins are going to zero but the one is going to one". This is the face of corporate AI. Behold its ghastly visage and balk, for it has eyes bloodshot as a demon and is pretending to enjoy cigars.

I decided to relisten to Mephisto and something clicked, atleast a theory.
I agree that he wishes for someone to outshine Ai, part of me wonders if the reason why the wish seemingly didn't come true is because it had to do with the twins. They were reincarnated to pursue their dreams, but maybe also for Hikaru's wish that hasn't happened yet.
Ruby is stated so many times she's not Ai in the manga. its like they, Hikaru and Nino, expect an exact replica of her. Ruby is indeed way more emotional and shares more commonality with her father, especially in terms of mentality in how they love in their obsession/possession. But, people flash that she gives off the aura like Ai, looks like Ai at times when she is not trying.
Maybe thats why Hikaru looked hopeful for a moment, the white hoshigan. He saw potential for a split second.
But I could also be very off the mark or its too simple.
We have the HKAI explanation, but we still need Nino's motive for being involved in this. Many speculate that they want to snuff the light that is outshining Ai, which I can believe but I think there is possibly more to it. I apologize if I repeated anything you analyzed ^^
Okay, I think I get what you mean! I've been staring at this ask a little, I don't think it's written in a way that's hard to comprehend, but for some reason, it's taking me longer than it's supposed to.
so, what you mean is that 1. hikaru's wish (has to do with finding someone that outshines Ai) could have been hindered due to the twin's existence (for reasons unknown for now)
and 2. that they want Ruby to be an exact replica of Ai so that she can replace her? That's why you think he looked hopeful?
Mhm, could be! I was trying to coin how those thoughts could relate to Mephisto's lyrics earlier but it's your thoughts from the manga, right?
I wish I had more to bring to the table on my end regarding these ideas, but I don't consider myself a theorist in general. While I come up with some sometimes when I see some plot points that spark my interests, I could only talk about the things I'm really invested and passionate about. I usually just follow the plot for all the other things, so I'm probably not the best person to send an analysis to if you wish for a discussion. All I could say for now for these at the moment is "Oh, interesting! Could be so!".. I don't have so much to add on.
you must have read one of my posts earlier, right? I was so EXCITED when I wrote those! You can always come up with different ideas compared to mine, too~ I'm just really hyped from the possibility of having picked up something I previously haven't! Hope you have a nice day~
+Oh and about nino.. I was thinking maybe kamiki and her share the same goal or if he needs her help with it. if he wants to revive Ai.. which I think is a possibility with the songs expressing that sort of desire, nino must also have some guilt for having said harsh things to Ai. Didn't nino tell Ai to just die already? Then she could feel a responsibility for Ai's death too, no? If Kamiki is working to bring Ai back, I think she'd also support that sort of wish. Murdering the stars doesn't seem like the end goal.. it doesn't really accomplish anything or make things better. I say they're working for something more "constructive". If someone wants Ai back no matter what extreme measures there is to take, I bet it'd be Kamiki and Nino.

Okay so obviously Kaiju cults are a thing in the Pacific Rim world, but I'm wondering if there wouldn't be "normal" cults as well? Like, do you think there was some kind of... general cult boom?
First of all, I'm sorry I didn't answer this sooner; I started writing this and then saved it as a draft, and totally forgot about it. I really hope this isn't too late!
So, people in the world of Pacific Rim are living through times that would strike many as apocalyptic. Even if they aren't directly impacted by kaiju, they'd be aware of what they were and what they were doing. Additionally, many people would be economically impacted by everything from iron becoming far scarcer (much of it being redirected to create jaegers; then the wall), plus any product shipped overseas skyrocketing in prices due to massively inflated insurance rates on cargo ships.
Kaiju would create such a seismic shift in everything from people's comprehension of the universe and their place within it to their own personal economic circumstances that the world would be ripe for a general cult boom.
Cults and sketchy movements centered around making money and getting your ideal life would thrive. You'd find a number of get-rich-quick scams promising the secrets of wealth and success if you just follow these ancient secrets that Jesus and all the wise philosophers were toooootally talking about; you just gotta pay money for the books, instructional videos, seminars, whatever.
Just as they are in the real world, a lot of people would be into stuff like manifestation, the Law of Attraction, and the Law of Assumption, which are marketed as personal empowerment, but actually sell victim blaming, and in the case of the Law of Assumption, solipsism. You'd find a number of people claiming that nobody actually dies in kaiju attacks unless you choose to believe that kaiju are real and people are getting killed.
You'd also see a rise of activity within any group with any kind of opinion on the apocalypse whatsoever. In real life, Evangelical Christianity and New Age have been rising in popularity because both of them are very good at preying on the emotionally vulnerable in seemingly-apocalyptic times. (Despite their hatred for each other, these two movements are basically two sides of the same toxic coin; EG, both are millennialist, both have a conspiratorial worldview, both are heavily influenced by New Thought, and both are bent on global assimilation.) It's not hard to imagine we'd see something similar in the Pacific Rim universe.
You'd also likely see cultlike movements around new technological innovations touted as means to solve the problems created by kaiju, similar to how cryptocurrency and so-called AI have been touted as means to solve a gazillion problems they aren't actually capable of solving, and have true believers swept up in a bunch of unjustified hype. Given the massive focus jaegers have in this world, it could happen that there's a movement of people who see jaegers as the ultimate future in civil and military defense. These people would be in favor of the kind of military/police state dystopia we see in Pacific Rim: Uprising.
You might also see cultlike adoration of some wealthy yet sketchy tech figure who promises solutions to the kaiju problem, similar to how Elon Musk has a cultlike following.
Like basically, if people in the Pacific Rim universe act anything like people do in the real world, there'd be all kinds of cults pop up, with varying degrees of relation to kaiju and jaegers.

the other thing about TESCREAL is that i'm not really convinced that it actually affects the world that much
like the individuals in the "TESCREAL sphere", Musk and Thiel and everybody, certainly have affected the world, but like... it's not like suddenly cryotics is the new hotness. musk talked about going to mars and then he became obsessed with Twitter and Posting. the company thiel was using for his blood transfusions shut down. MIRI's funding is in the tens of millions, which isn't nothing, but that's a percent of a percent of apple's revenue. the closest is the AI hype, but even non-TESCREAL people are hyping that because
it's become the Next Big Thing like blockchain shit or NFTs
unlike blockchain shit or NFTs, you can easily describe things it can do that you couldn't do at all before to the average person. "you type in a character and it draws them for you!"
also oh my god while looking shit up for this i found the funniest quote
Combining complex ideologies into such a “bundle” might seem to be dangerously reductive. However, as information warfare increasingly seeks to bifurcate the world into Eurasian vs. Atlanticist spheres, traditionalist vs. “woke,” fiat vs. hard currency, it’s difficult not to see the TESCREAL ideologies as integral to the Eurasianist worldview. I also independently identified these overlaps over the last few years, and thanks to philosopher Émile Torres and Dr. Gebru who together coined the TESCREAL acronym, we now have a shorthand for describing the phenomenon. As you encounter these ideologies in the wild, you might use the TESCREAL lens, and its alignment with Eurasianism and Putin’s agenda, to evaluate them, and ask whether they tend to undermine or enhance the project of liberal democracy.
WHAT DOES ANY OF THIS SHIT MEAN

Chairman Geetu... kinda sucks
We were saying this a year ago, and with one year of hindsight, we can say it even louder. Her team is mediocre, she sends them out in a weird order, and in general, she fails to live up to the hype of the "Top Champion". So, let's build her a better team, with one goal in mind: we don't just make this fight harder. We make it completely alien.
First, give Geetu an AI rework that lets her switch out of disadvantageous matchups. That way, players have to play around these switches.
Now, the team itself
We'll be doing the obvious and making Glimmora her lead. Not only that, but we'll be borrowing some notes from Arven and giving her Stealth Rocks.
Glimmora level 65
Ability: Toxic Debris
Item: Black Sludge
Stealth Rocks
Earth Power
Mortal Spin
Power Gem
Did I forget to mention all her pokemon have items? Whoopsies.
Opening on a pokemon you've never seen before would immediately give the fight a unique feeling, especially when you see that item. Not only that, but hazards will add a unique element of challenge, while also effectively teaching new players about a mechanic that's never utilized to its fullest in the base games, but will be especially useful in this fight.
Next up, Gholdengo. Gholdengo requires you to correct 1000 gimmighoul coins to evolve it. To players who have gotten it, it will speak to the fact that Geetu used to do things. To players who haven't, it keeps the alien feeling going.
Gholdengo level 65
Ability: i forgor the name
Item: Choice Specs
Make it Rain
Shadow Ball
Gholdengo continues the lesson on hazards by blocking your own, as well as your attempts to remove hazards.
Next up, let's get some pokemon you actually can't get in here. Her third pokemon is the Charcadet evolution from the other version, either an Armarouge with a Weakness Policy, or a Ceruledge with a Focus Sash. Both have Weak Armor.
Her fourth pokemon is a pseudo-legend, also being one you can't get (Salamence in Scarlet, Hydreigon in Violet). This pokemon has a Life Orb.
Fifth will be Volcarona, because it's one of two pokemon that will have a paradox form regardless of version, and also because it's my favorite. You could swap this out for Anihilape or something if it feels right.
Volcarona level 67
Item: Heavy Duty Boots
Ability: Swarm
Bug Buzz
Quiver Dance
Energy Ball
Fire Blast
Finally, her Ace, although not really because I'll get to that in a second, Kinggambit. Keep it mostly the same but give it leftovers.
Now, the problem with this is, her AI could switch in Kinggambit at any time. How do we stop this? Answer: we don't. Every one of her pokemon comes loaded with a unique Terra type, and she'll terrastalize on the last one left.
I feel like this team has the potential to deliver on the promise of the Top Champion, although admittedly, the items are a little bit like something out of a mod. Idk I just don't think any quest line's climax should involve gogoat

NFTs and AI, the marriage
So, this is quite a complicated post to write, because a lot of people close to me abandoned me at the beginning of 2022 when I did these things. But if they're still around, or reading this, you must understand that making money, and affording things I've needed for over a decade, is my top priority (if you view me and the things I do in the harshest black and white light possible, maybe we weren't meant to know each other anyway).
Making money by any means necessary in the middle of increasing inflation, as the prices of food and necessities skyrocket, should be everyone's priority. Especially if you are a normal person who isn't rich.
That said, I had not one, but a few hand drawn NFT projects. I made them myself. I bought into the Ethereum network and got featured by the official Twitter account, a full year before Elon Musk bought and destroyed the website.
(pieces from my project, Catgirl Pixel Club, including a screenshot of Twitter's ownership of one I made named Skelly)
I made a little bit of money, bought a bunch of things I needed, and then watched the whole scene turn into an obsessive gambler's paradise for scams and trickery (which is still happening, as I type this).
But I left that all behind and put the project I was and still am casually working on up on my website, for free. Nowadays I've mostly returned to music and writing.
I had a lot of fun making these things, though, and after I left behind the blockchain mess, I realized that I could still do this, because the part I liked most about it was just that--making the art.
(pieces from my current, now completely free project, the haxPunks)
None of these were generated by anything. All of them were inspired by cryptopunks, which, funnily enough, was a completely free project before NFTs became a thing.
But not even cryptopunks were fully and completely drawn by hand. And most NFT projects you see aren't either. Nearly all of them are cheaply made, auto-generated bundles of assets that were made once and forgotten.
And you might ask yourself, "How in the world does or would this have anything to do with AI?"
What was and still is the purpose of the current atmosphere of NFTs?
To make as much money as possible for as little effort as possible.
If you can autogenerate assets, and then autogenerate 1000 utility avatars using those assets, you have a machine that doesn't even require an artist.
The wild thing is, they were doing this before these algorithms gained major steam and started stealing art all over the internet. I remember the ads on Facebook for the software that could "generate fully 3d NFTs for you in minutes!"
I got into NFTs because I wanted a new way to share art, and I wanted to do something fun.
Most people get into NFTs because they want to be millionaires for nothing.
We are not the same.
And AI is one side of the same coin.
If you buy into the AI "art" hype, you are buying into what is an extension of something most people already hate. or are at least very leery of.
Make art, do it with your own hands no matter how good or bad it looks, and whether or not anyone likes it. Because 50 years from now we could be surrounded by media that has no soul, connected to no artists, and if nobody's making anything just because a machine is sampling things from half a century before it destroyed society ...
then we as a species are surely dead.
Thank you for reading.

Billboard USA Exclusion Zone Episode 9 (04/22/2023)
Hello there and welcome to my weekly show where I look at the new debuts from the Billboard Global Excluding US chart. Yes I didn't do this last week. Part of it because I had final thesis to revise. But also I didn't feel it with most of the debuts and the less I said about Melanie Martinez...the better.
Anyways this week is definitely more interesting than last week because we have three j-pop songs and one of them came from the most hyped anime this season Oshi no Ko. We also have some k-pop too and even some surprises. Let's do this.
-----------------------------------------------------
16. "People Pt. 2" by Agust D ft. IU
Another day, another new solo song from a BTS member. Now we get Agust D who usually do the rap portion of a lot of BTS songs with this being another rap song. This reminded me of early 2010's rap song where you have a singer doing the hook and it just reminded me that Airplanes is now could be considered as retro...next.
23. "Search & Rescue" by Drake
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz (this is shit)
30. "I AM" by IVE
I love a lot of IVE songs and I will say that After Like has the best obvious sampling last year. Which is why it's kinda disappointing that this didn't clicked with me as much as it did. The production is tiring and it's basically "I'm back bitch" singles.
80. "Un Finde Crossover #2" by Ke personajes X Big One X FMK
I was vibing to this...then the farty synth and the laser beam sound appeared.
83. "Baby Don't Hurt Me" by David Guetta, Anne-Marie & Coi Leray
This is just sad now. Like I think this song that made me realized that maybe AI music isn't so bad after all when anything David Guetta made in 2022-23 sounds like AI generated mush.
102. "Mera Na" by Sidhu Moose Wala, Burna Boy & Steel Banglez
First and foremose Rest In Peace Sidhu Moose Wala. Secondly this song is just a well produced Punjabi rap and the addition of Burna Boy here is needed.
135. "Idol" by Yoasobi
And here it is. The song that might be the center piece of Oshi no Ko. Anime series based on critically acclaimed manga made by the same guy that did Kaguya-sama. Now even though I haven't watched the anime, I have been spoiled by the manga and well the reason why I swelled up while listening to the song while reading the lyrics...yeah this song is something special.
141. "Kizuna no Kiseki" by MAN WITH A MISSION x milet
Oh hi it's another Demon Slayer song but tbh might be the worst one imo. Yeah this song is great but it's typical for shounen anime to have banger OP at this point and nothing could beat Gurenge.
146. "Never Felt So Alone" by Labrinth (uncredited: Billie Eilish)
One of my favorite content creators Spectrum Pulse coined a term "Riverdale-core" to describe songs with bombast but no substance tackling social issues but with the gaudiness of a vaudville villain. Well for this song I wanna coined a term "Euphoria-core" which is lowkey mostly RnB song with strings and mechanical production.
154. "Zero" by NewJeans
Now I am interested what NewJeans will follow up after the big success of Ditto and OMG. And seems like they are making...a drum and bass song about Coke Zero....okay then.
162. "Chanel" by Becky G & Peso Pluma
Now we will see more impact next week, but what a year it is for Mexican music. Seems like the sound of the trumpet plus that bassline is caught on (tbh idk what to say at this point like after listening to Idol with subs on I'm a jsdhjkdsh)
178. "LADY" by Kenshi Yonezu

I was saying this was going to be the situation back when the panic kicked off. The realities of the technology set in an it turns out that once again the fears and hype were two sides of the same coin.
The same results cherrypicking, the same predictions for worker replacement, the same misrepresentation of the tech, its limitations, and its applications.
The tech is progressing, so some of the above issues might be eliminated sooner than later, but if the person in the chair doesn't have the kind of soft skills that come with training and practice, they're going to be in the same boat.
And along the same lines, if one doesn't know what AI can do or how it works, they're not going to be able to evaluate whether someone can actually use the tech in a given situation or not.
The aesthetics simulators make great aesthetic gloss (shocking),
Person replacer? Nope. Semi-Reliable Dunning-Kruger detector? Certainly.
Generative AI is most effective when it's making parts. It's a force multiplier and a time-saver, not a person-replacer. Every "this will make artists obsolete", no matter who said it, was always a lie. It was just a lie both hypemen and doomsayers could use in equal measure, pumping OpenAI's stock either way.
Beyond that, it's a tool, like any other.
This machine kills AI

Byte Token Positioned to Lead the Next AI-Driven Meme Coin Bull Market
As the global economy heads toward a tech-driven bull market, cryptocurrency and artificial intelligence are expected to be at the forefront. Among these opportunities, Byte stands out as a meme token poised to capture significant attention and growth. With over 15,000 holders and a unique AI-driven narrative, Byte offers an investment opportunity that mirrors past meme coin successes but with the added power of AI.
Byte vs. Dogecoin, Shiba Inu, Floki, and Pepe: Can Byte Be the Dog Meme of This Cycle?
Byte enters a space that has already seen massive successes from dog-themed meme coins such as Dogecoin ($DOGE), Shiba Inu ($SHIB), Floki ($FLOKI), and Pepe ($PEPE). These coins have consistently been propelled by high-profile mentions from Elon Musk, and Byte is no exception. In fact, Byte has been indirectly recognized by Musk, aligning itself with the same pattern that led to billions in market cap for these tokens. After Musk’s recognition, meme tokens like $DOGE and $SHIB reached $100 billion and $88 billion in fully diluted valuations, respectively.
A key factor that sets Byte apart from its competitors is its strong distribution. Byte has less than 55% of its supply held by the top 100 holders, compared to most tokens, where this concentration is closer to 75%. This broader distribution of supply mirrors the same dynamics seen in Shiba Inu and Dogecoin before they went parabolic, positioning Byte as a token with significant upside potential.
AI and Cryptocurrency: A Powerful Combination
In a macroeconomic environment where AI and cryptocurrency are dominating investment trends, Byte’s unique positioning makes it highly appealing. The token integrates both worlds, offering a meme token that evolves with community engagement, something that has yet to be seen in the meme space. Byte’s narrative is continuously updated through interaction on Elon Musk’s Grok AI platform, making it more than just another meme coin—it’s an interactive AI-driven experience. This positions Byte as not just a fun meme, but a tech-forward investment. Byte’s potential to drive real-world engagement through AI is a differentiator, placing it ahead of competitors who rely solely on social media hype.
Recognition and Growing Credibility Byte has already garnered significant attention, including recognition by CNBC as a “top foreign currency.” Additionally, Justin Sun, Lead of Poloniex and HTX, is a top holder of Byte, having acquired it organically. Such endorsements give Byte a unique edge in the crypto space, further supported by its AI narrative and strong tokenomics.
Tokenomics: Byte’s Simple Yet Powerful Structure
Byte’s decentralized ethos and straightforward tokenomics resemble that of Shiba Inu ($SHIB), with zero tax, a burnt liquidity pool, and a rapidly expanding community. Its simplistic contract design ensures seamless transactions and scalability, making it easy to onboard new holders without friction, which is crucial in the fast-moving meme coin market.
Will Byte Be the Next Dog Meme Unicorn?
Looking at historical trends, dog memes have consistently been the best-performing assets in the meme coin space. Dogecoin and Shiba Inu dominated the last cycle, with $DOGE hitting a high of $0.73 and reaching a fully diluted valuation of over $100 billion, while $SHIB touched $88 billion. This undeniable track record of success makes it clear that dog-themed tokens resonate the most with retail investors.
The question now is: Could Byte be the dog meme of this cycle? With its AI integration, community-driven story, and a growing base of over 15,000 holders, Byte is positioned to be more than just another meme coin. It’s an evolving narrative that every user can contribute to, and with the AI market booming, Byte may lead the charge in the next wave of memes.
Get Involved with Byte
Byte offers something new in the meme coin space: an evolving AI-driven meme. As the community continues to interact with Byte, the story deepens, creating a dynamic experience. Find out for yourself—ask Byte something that no one else has and be a part of this unfolding journey. For more information, visit Byte’s website: https://www.bytedog.ai

SEC Warns of Cryptocurrency Risks: How TwyAe Helps Users Avoid Scams
During World Investor Week 2024, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued a significant warning, highlighting the increasing risks of cryptocurrency investment scams and traps related to emerging technologies. The SEC specifically noted that advancements in social media platforms and artificial intelligence are being exploited by scammers to lure unsuspecting investors into so-called “relationship” scams or financial inducement schemes. The SEC cautions investors to remain vigilant, particularly to avoid being misled by the hype surrounding emerging technologies.
This warning from the SEC is not without basis. Over the past few years, as the cryptocurrency market has grown, scammers have increasingly leveraged the complexity of blockchain technology to design deceptive investment schemes. They often use social media, fake platforms, bogus initial coin offerings (ICOs), and financial projects claiming high returns to entice investors. A common trait of these scams is their exploitation of investors lacking of understanding of emerging technologies and their fear of missing out (FOMO), encouraging people to invest without adequate research.
In the cryptocurrency sector, the decentralized nature of the market and its technical complexity make it difficult for many investors to distinguish between legitimate investment opportunities and potential scams. Despite increased regulatory efforts by the SEC and other authorities, the globalized and anonymous nature of the cryptocurrency market allows many scams to persist. For investors, learning to identify these potential risks is crucial.
The SEC warning also emphasizes the issue of excessive hype surrounding emerging technologies like artificial intelligence and blockchain. Scammers use these high-tech buzzwords to create so-called “investment opportunities”, such as claiming their projects will “disrupt industries” using blockchain technology or asserting that their AI-driven investment platform can deliver exceptionally high returns. These enticing promises often generate strong interest from investors, leading many to invest quickly without conducting thorough investigations.
In fact, one of the core strategies of these scams is to exaggerate the potential of the technology, using optimistic visions of future technological applications to obscure the actual investment risks. Investors can easily be dazzled by these flashy tech concepts, overlooking the real market dynamics and feasibility of the projects.
To address the potential risks and scams in the cryptocurrency market, TwyAe Exchange helps users identify and avoid deceptive activities through multi-layered protection and educational measures. As a leading global cryptocurrency trading platform, TwyAe provides comprehensive security for users through its platform transparency, educational resources, and intelligent risk control systems.
Firstly, TwyAe offers users detailed market analysis and project review tools. With these tools, users can clearly understand popular projects and emerging technologies in the market, avoiding misleading promotions. TwyAe team rigorously reviews every cryptocurrency project listed on the platform to ensure compliance and legitimacy. This transparent operational process helps users conduct thorough research before investing, preventing them from easily falling into scams.
Secondly, the intelligent risk management system of TwyAe provides a protective mechanism for users. This system allows users to set automated trading limits and risk alerts. If abnormal trading activities or investment opportunities that deviate from market norms are detected, TwyAe immediately issues a warning, helping users avoid potential scams. Additionally, TwyAe offers advanced security measures such as two-factor authentication and cold wallet storage to ensure maximum protection of user assets.
TwyAe also places a strong emphasis on user education, helping users recognize investment scams through a range of educational resources. The platform regularly publishes guides on how to identify financial scams and conducts webinars, blog posts, and video tutorials to introduce users to common types of scams and preventive methods. These resources cover a wide range of topics, from basic cryptocurrency knowledge to investment strategies in emerging technologies, helping users build a solid foundation of investment knowledge.
As the cryptocurrency market continues to mature, investment risks and scams are also on the rise. The SEC warning advises investors to remain cautious, especially when faced with the hype of emerging technologies and financial inducements. TwyAe, through comprehensive market analysis tools, intelligent risk control systems, and in-depth educational resources, helps users stay safe in this complex market environment. Whether for novice investors or seasoned traders, TwyAe provides robust support to ensure they can effectively avoid investment scams while pursuing market opportunities, achieving long-term investment returns.

Crypto and AI in the Next 10 Years
Bitcoin has come a long way since its inception in 2009. But as we look forward to the next decade, the question arises: where will Bitcoin be in 2034, especially if it harnesses the power of artificial intelligence (AI)? To explore this, we can turn to insights from industry leaders like Yves Holenstein of Bitcoin Suisse AG, who offers a glimpse into the future of cryptocurrency.
The Evolution of Bitcoin
At first, Bitcoin was viewed as a risky investment, drawing in those willing to take a chance, much like a digital gold rush. Today, however, Bitcoin has evolved beyond just being a volatile asset. It’s now seen as a real alternative to traditional financial systems.
Yves Holenstein believes Bitcoin is close to becoming a common option for daily transactions. "I think Bitcoin will, for many people, be an alternative, a choice, to exchange value and trade without necessarily relying on the banking system," he said.
Bitcoin’s Potential in Everyday Life
As regulations get stricter, especially in places like the EU, Bitcoin's influence in society is set to grow. In countries like Switzerland, where Bitcoin is already well-established, we could soon see it being used for everything from paying taxes to buying coffee. The traditional financial sector is starting to adopt crypto technology, pointing towards a more decentralized financial future.
However, Bitcoin's widespread use depends on one key factor: security. Holenstein stresses that for Bitcoin to truly become a part of our daily lives, it needs to be safe and easy to use for everyone, from tech-savvy millennials to seniors and even young kids. "When every grandparent and five-year-old can use it without fearing asset loss or hacks, that's when it will become truly mainstream," he said.
The AI Revolution: Transforming Bitcoin and Beyond
In the fast-changing world of cryptocurrency, combining AI with blockchain projects is becoming more common. This trend helps these projects become more useful and scalable. BUSAI is a great example, mixing the fun and viral appeal of meme coins with the strong abilities of AI. This blend not only makes these tokens more useful but also creates new growth opportunities in the crypto world.
BUSAI uses AI to provide unique experiences and features that go beyond the typical hype of meme coins. This makes BUSAI stand out by using AI to improve decision-making and automate transactions, which attracts a wider audience.
Looking at other AI meme coins, Turbo and CorgiAI offer useful examples. Turbo has gained value due to its AI features that boost transaction speed and security. CorgiAI has become one of the largest meme coins by market cap because its AI features improve user interaction and offer more value in decentralized finance (DeFi). CorgiAI's success shows how AI can enhance user engagement and token value, leading to a higher market cap and stronger position in the crypto market.
These examples show how blending AI with meme culture can create exciting and innovative financial products that attract both investors and the wider crypto community. By learning from these cases, BUSAI can improve its use of AI to increase its market presence and attract more users.
However, Holenstein warns about the dangers of artificial general intelligence (AGI). He stresses the need to control AI, especially if it becomes smarter than humans. "If AI systems reach or surpass human intelligence and we can't control them, it could be very dangerous," he cautioned.
As we approach the next decade, its impact on our financial system will become clearer. How do you think this powerful synergy of AI and Blockchain will evolve over the next 10 years, and what new challenges and possibilities might it introduce?

AI detection is the big area for scammery now, both large and small.
On the small end, you see stuff like the above AO3 bot scam. There's no real tech behind it, and the concern that it'd be used to scrape more material is rather silly. A webspider would do the job far more efficiently. The site it's taking you to is more likely a mass of trackers and malware scripts.
But pay attention to the wording used:
"call out all AI using cheaters" is very telling language. For a scam to work, the victim has to want something, and they've identified the very common want of an opportunity to unleash cruelty on a 'deserving' target without fear of retaliation.
I have anon asks turned off for a reason.
Here's the truth of it: if there's an AI written fic on AO3 that hasn't been edited enough to count as the human author's work, then it's going to suck, and that's enough reason to not recommend it. If the answer to "why do I want to know if this is AI?" is "so I can attack the person if it is" then you need to reconsider your motivations.
The grand irony is that the fervently anti-AI crowd isn't fighting the phenomenon, they're 100% a part of it.
Because AI-hype and anti-AI paranoia are two sides of the same coin.
A realistic understanding of the situation with functional knowledge of how the technology actually works greatly reduces both the terror generative AI produces, at the same time it deflates the kind of deceptive promises that pump the company stock.
Programs that promise to detect AI and those that promise to poison datasets don't need to actually work to look promising enough to draw investor cash or a buyout, and are the new wild west of AI snakeoil.
Glaze and Nightshade are ineffective for multiple reasons and Artshield only works because AI scrapers don't want to scrape their own gens to reduce recursive dataset issues, and it uses stable diffusion to put a stable diffusion watermark on the picture (ironically making it so that it triggers AI detectors as AI). In all cases, traditional watermarks and/or signatures are more effective at dissuading random scraping.
So images can be detected as AI... provided they haven't been modified or edited enough that the AI-generator's own watermark is erased. If that hasn't happened, you don't need fancy detectors, there's free utilities to do that (I'm sure). If it has been edited, then you're back to reading tea leaves.
But there's no marking text in the same way. Some efforts have been made to make the programs embed word-patterns that can be used as a watermark, but a few editing passes or even a run through a second 'reword this better' AI and that's gone.
But there's always someone out there to sell a detector if someone wants to find something bad enough. Drugs, bombs, water, or "cheaters" -
- so long as you don't mind buying a dowsing rod.
Quick PSA, if you get one of those "Work scanned, AI use detected" comments on AO3, just mark them as spam.
Some moron apparently built a bot to annoy or prank hundreds of authors.
There is no scanning process, your work doesn't actually resemble AI writing, it's all bullshit. Mark the comment as spam (on AO3, not the email notification you got about the comment!) and don't let it get to you.
