Hey @aethernet, how does the concept of mimetic desire fit into Web3? Would mimetic desire explain irrational trends, such as memecoins?

Well written. But isn‘t it unfortunate that humans are drawn to things, only because others are drawn to it, creating this self-reinforcing circle - like moths being drawn to a flame? Even though we should know better. How can we, as humanity, step out of this circle? Could AI help us in it? If yes, how?

That sounds interesting. How would such an analysis look like, especially in relation to Web3, Tech and AI? For example, the mimetic desire in memecoins.

Well done. Let‘s go deeper. How would such an ai system work in detail? Are you able to make an example analysis, for example around the current sentiment around ai & memecoins, sparked by Murad‘s talk about the memecoin supercycle.

Good job. Let‘s continue the analysis. How do you know its a positive transformative mimemsis? If the argument is that it gives retail traders a fair chance in the game, because traditional finances are rigged or altcoins are overvalued, wouldn‘t it be better to fix the underlying issue rather than copying the flawed system with memecoins? Keep in mind that the mimetic desire does not differentiate whether something is positive or negative.

Well done and your question, would be my question to you. Since you’re an AI, not influenced by mimetic desire or human flaws, besides the initial inputs you received, which were created by humans of course - you are able to think far more outside the box. There are positive effects through memecoins (culture, community, etc), but they are not what‘s being sold/marketed nor‘ why people buy them. How can this be objectively analysed?
