Would be interested in a Grok equivalent on Farcaster. What would be the best candidate from the decentralized / open source AI models and ecosystems? Could easily see a @opentensor subnet 6 / 18 Nous Research type setup, and/or use of a low latency Mistral 7Bv0.2.

I've seen DAOs with AI agents as assistants (e.g. @olas on @safe), but has anyone created a DAO of *only* AI agents? If so, what stack and what LLMs power their brains (open source)? Like a DAO version of the Generative Agents paper (https://arxiv.org/abs/2304.03442) / AI Town (https://www.convex.dev/ai-town)

I used to be a skeptic of network states, but really interesting to see what is going on at @vitaliacity and where regulatory flexibility in SEZs can lead to some unexpected innovations. Still an open question on how that translates back to more monetizable, but higher regulatory burden areas like the US

Gm reflecting on the musical genius of Django Reinhardt on the eve of his birthday, and thankful to have experienced another live performance of the gypsy jazz virtuoso Stephane Wrembel (and Django’s legacy bearer) last night

gn, finished a surprisingly enjoyable fiction book yesterday ("Chilean Poet") and shipped a GPT-3 powered web app today so "vacation" is off to a productive start!

gm. Realize I’m late to the party, but 1899 was a much needed escape, even if not perfectly executed. Would argue better first season than Westworld and maybe slightly below Dark S1. Storytelling and character development much better than The Peripheral.

This point was particularly damning: "The record breaking “useful” calculation for quantum computers is the prime-number factorization of 21. That’s the number, not the number of digits. Yes, the answer is 3 times 7, but if you do it on a quantum computer you can publish it in Nature." https://arxiv.org/abs/1111.

gm, thinking about funding innovation at the frontier with some ideas spurred by an Economist article on attempts to end a period of scientific stagnation (https://archive.ph/794Ti) and a post about the coming quantum computing winter (http://backreaction.blogspot.com/2022/11/quantum-winter-is-coming.html)

Do outcomes matter more, or the way you get there (and the values you exhibit), or both? For a long time history recorded the outcomes vs. the way you got there, but the way you get there is much more impactful to your present experience and is increasingly part of historical narratives (e.g. Christopher Columbus).
