This should actually be trust vs. privacy (my cortado did not hit my bloodstream with enough haste)

I know nothing about ZKPs, because I’m a bona fide meathead, but this article by @sach helped me grok it https://open.substack.com/pub/protocolized/p/zero-knowledge

Toyota’s manufacturing broke a paradox – cost vs. quality – they made things cheaper by making things better. Digital protocols do something similar. They break the tension between trust vs. transparency. You can have more trust with less interpersonal transparency, because with zero-knowledge proofs, you just need to provide evidence to the protocol, not other people. Think about how comfortable we are sharing information with Google and chachipiti compared to transacting with strangers. More information does mean better mutual outcomes, but we assume that we need more transparency to get there. People turned their nose up at Toyota… because it was paradoxical. It’s possible that ZKPs take off and everyone will look back and be like, “uh, doi”.

love tipping the toaster on its side. remind what we’re calling it when we hack on a protocol? e.g. thinking of Geoff Manaugh’s Burger’s Guide to the City https://youtu.be/pK7U2IrPETQ

I’d like to commission a solid piece for Protocolized on MCP (model context protocol) by someone who has played with it hands-on, and also has a sense of the larger philosophical and design issues around protocols for AIs. Here are our submission guidelines for pitches. Looking for a solid nonfiction piece here even though our focus is protocol fiction. https://protocolized.summerofprotocols.com/p/submission-guidelines
