1. I think crypto is a Ponzi scheme. It’s not pessimism to question it, it’s seeing it for what it is.
2. I wouldn’t trust a self driving car today. I have a Tesla and have friends who have tried the self driving mode - and said it had clear blind spots.
3. 100% of us should be concerned about AI being used for malicious ends. That doesn’t mean don’t go forward with it, but it does mean do out best to reduce negative outcomes from it.
