Prediction: Every AI agent platform will open source their agent tech by March

I’ll try to make code contributions to every one that does when I have a chance

This isn’t about us. The goal is AGI.

The goal is AGI.

all-in

the whole h1b crusade is the battle of succession 

MAGA defeated both the dems and the old republican party

donny only got 1 term left
- atm the succeeding party looks to be the david sacks coalition (e.g. elon, JD, RFK, tulsi, etc.)
- old MAGA base i.e. banner et al are fighting for their future

it's sacks v banner 
sucks that @sriramk.eth got stuck in the middle of it

infinite backrooms is the most plausible explanation for the simulation theory

we're just synthetic training data

the more time i spend on building a character with eliza the more i appreciate what andy ayrey did with truth terminal

just a different league

@woj.eth and I both played this game when we were younger before we had any idea what crypto was

crazy how many people on this platform grew up playing strategy games

top is when i buy a watch
i'll keep y'all posted

swords

in grad school this one student that was kinda crazy vibes brought a sword to the school and threatened people. like nothing actually threatening tho. 

it broke the psychology of the whole school. reality TV style. everyone started acting scared and traumatized.

Thiel led the seed round in 2016

Sacks did the series A in 2021-23

a16z led the growth round in 2024

I am pleased to announce the brilliant Team that will be working in conjunction with our White House A.I. &amp; Crypto Czar, David O. Sacks. Together, we will unleash scientific breakthroughs, ensure America's technological dominance, and usher in a Golden Age of American Innovation!…

Some important announcements today by President Trump on his Tech Team! I look forward to working with:
-- Michael Kratsios - Director of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP), and an Assistant to the President for Science and Technology.
-- Dr. Lynne…

Going to be hard to restrict AIs from owning assets if crypto exists.

reflection on this guy's 'observations'

1. fundamental misunderstanding of crypto systems is glaring—not just about owning assets but also compute, on-chain economies, and more.

2. it’s not a lack of understanding of swarms, but a wild over-indexing on the increasingly unlikely idea of AGI as singular models tied to individual data centers.

3. unreal that this level of superficiality and bias is involved in doing policy work at OpenAI.

4. the spread between open source, crypto, agent meta, hacker culture, and Big Brother AI grows wider by the second.

5. hard to overstate the impact Meta had by open-sourcing their models.

Now that everyone knows about o3, and imminent AGI is considered plausible, I’d like to walk through some of the AI policy implications I see.

youtube shorts algorithm is so weird

there's a genre that i'm currently stuck in that's basically just

people getting of cars in monaco to modern talking songs

Ethereum

the #1 thing that @solana has right now over @ethereum is people with money who are willing to deploy in a risk forward way at the edge and thereby push forward innovation. 

this is how innovation happens — but it's often messy in a way that can turn folks off (eg it's "just speculation"). but the lack of this means less capital bandwidth for ideas and experiments to both get funding and to break through into virality via price. memes and the innovation downstream of them are a prime example of this. 

if @ethereum wants to succeed, this needs to change — and we are seeing signs of it on @base, but it's still early and  we need a lot more help. 

so let this be a call to action: if you are someone who believes in Ethereum, holds significant amounts of ETH, and wants the economy to grow, now is the time to step up.. 

if this is you, please DM or shoot me an email at jesse@base.org. will be coming up with a plan in the new year. 

🙏🏼

this is a very important perspective shift that ethereum needs to go through in order to succeed

really glad to see @jessepollak championing this

@base builder #001; onchain cities w/ OAK & city3

what's the easiest way to go from Base to Solana?

farcaster needs to do everything it can to become the home of the most interesting agents and the best agent devs

we gotta go all hands on deck
full force
single directin

this is it

gen z boss and a mini gen z boss and a mini gen z boss and a mini gen z boss and a mini gen z boss and a mini gen z boss and a mini gen z boss and a mini gen z boss and a mini gen z boss and a mini gen z boss and a mini gen z boss and a mini gen z boss and a mini gen z boss and a mini gen z boss and a mini

startups are pretty much arbitraging 

you gotta find a spread in the market and close it

Why are Farcaster builders so optimistic when X, Y, and Z bad things exist?

My brother, bad is the default. 

It’s entropy.

Failure is the most likely outcome when building something new.

If you’re not a definite optimist, you’ve got no chance in making it happen. 

Even if you’re a rational person, you have to be willing to suspend belief just enough to make the bet despite all the bad.

And then it’s just week of week progress and try not to die (mostly figuratively). For years.

let's resurrect this gem on this fine saturday afternoon

except for Samo Burja and Arthur Hayes, everything I see on substack is wannabe writer flufdtrash

confession: 
multiple times a day i just say out loud to myself "gaddduuuuupi" and laugh out loud. like by myself. 

like it's just so funny
