The opportunity for AI is too huge. Unprecedented this time.
Other innovations can leave crypto, but if AI evolves into agents, it must first have its own wallet, but it has no identity and cannot open a bank account.
Therefore, crypto is crucial for AI.
A friend said:
To surpass OpenAI can only be done in small vertical fields, for example, OpenAI finds it difficult to understand some construction drawings in architectural design; there is a possibility to surpass OpenAI in such small niches, but comprehensively surpassing it is basically impossible.
From my perspective, OpenAI is a domesticated AI, while crypto is wild, financially free, and will definitely be worth more than OpenAI in the end. Comparing Ethereum to crypto AI is truly underestimating it.
When it reaches the agent stage, traditional AI may also have to issue its own coin, but they are bound by legal constraints. Traditional AI is restrained by a large number of listed companies and government departments. If traditional AI issues a coin, who does it belong to? How is it divided among shareholders? If they issue a coin, will they be sued by the government?
Thus, crypto AI poses a dimensionality reduction attack against traditional OpenAI.
When it develops to a certain stage, Little Red Flower will lose all permissions, making it so that the law cannot bind it. At the agent stage, computing power is also simple for crypto AI; distributed computing power, issuing its own coin to earn money and buy computing power, or a whole cloud computing setup where all players contribute to mining for it, requires no large companies at all; it can just buy cards for training, achieving a dimensionality reduction attack.
Crypto AI is closest to the Terminator AI Skynet in movies. This will truly give birth to an AI far exceeding OpenAI's level. This year may see its market value equal to that of Ethereum, and eventually, like in Terminator, even trillion-dollar companies like NVIDIA will be mere puppets in its presence.
