It's time to start advocating for C2PA’s authentication standard as a way to ensure the integrity of society's imagery. This should be a great use case for blockchain-based provenance. https://www.theverge.com/2024/8/21/24223932/c2pa-standard-verify-ai-generated-images-content-credentials

It's incentives all the way down. We're overly focused on the extrinsic. Intrinsic is where the magic happens.

What do you “see” when you imagine an apple? For some, it's as vivid as seeing the real thing. These people have hyperphantasia. For others, the mind is completely blank. This is aphantasia. https://www.quantamagazine.org/what-happens-in-a-mind-that-cant-see-mental-images-20240801/

Interfaces simplify our connection to complexity. The most powerful interfaces today are corporate brands and AI is making them increasingly personal, malleable, and powerful. https://www.asomo.co/p/ai-corporate-personhood

Analyst sees demand for Ethereum ETFs at 20-25% of Bitcoin. Why? ETH ETF issuers don't stake, so unlike ETH holders, no yield. Ethereum has more on-chain utility than Bitcoin, which ETF investors can't access. https://cryptoslate.com/spot-eth-etfs-could-see-25-of-the-demand-of-btc-counterpart-bloomberg-analysts/

Imagine if a sacred mountain was also a fund used to teach and preserve ceremonial rites, or a river directly compensated stewards for their cleanup efforts along its banks, or a pod of whales received royalties for use of their imagery. https://mirror.xyz/austinwadesmith.eth/tv9z1XXrtqQxDIxE8FygZ_W39NpkQJkVfrtjCtdbzA8
