Exploring AI-Generated Interpretations of Hand Drawn SketchesIn this episode, hosts Jamie and Kurt dive into the fascinating intersection of traditional hand sketching and modern AI-generated imagery. They start with a hand-drawn architectural sketch by Jamie and use AI tools to create several iterations, discussing how each version interprets the original drawing in unique ways. While analyzing the AI-generated images, they explore themes like fidelity to the original sketch, color interpretations, and the evolving environment within the compositions. The conversation also touches on the broader implications of AI in architecture and design, offering some humorous observations about the AI's penchant for multiplying drawing implements in the sketches.

In this episode, Sam Atman, a developer with a background in biochemistry, shares his insights on the discussions around artificial intelligence (AI) safety. Oppen dismisses concerns about AI becoming a rogue actor, attributing such fears to religious neurosis and misunderstanding of the nature of AI. He argues that AI systems, such as Language Models (LLMs) like OpenAI, do not have personal motives or embodiment comparable to human intelligence. He also discusses AI's potential impact on creative fields such as art and music, and stresses the importance of tracing the connection between AI outputs and the training data. Finally, Oppen cautions against lobbying for government regulations on software and artificial intelligence, asserting that it could lead to dystopian outcomes. Show Notes 00:02 Introduction and Guest Background 00:17 Exploring Weird Software and Programming Languages 01:09 Deep Dive into Hoon and Urbit 03:51 The Current State and Future of Urbit 10:26 AI Safetyism and the Regulation of GPUs and Software 18:17 The Nature of Intelligence and Consciousness in AI 25:43 The Misconceptions and Absurdities in AI Safetyism 29:28 Understanding AI Alignment and Training 30:14 AI Misconceptions and the Reality of AI Systems 30:53 Exploring the Concept of Lossy Compression in AI 31:04 The Impact of AI on Internet Accessibility 31:45 Understanding Attention Transformers in AI 32:39 AI and the Controversy of Training Data 39:53 The Evolution of AI: From Simple Calculations to Complex Synthesis 46:15 The Ethical Dilemma of AI in Art and Music 50:48 The Legal Implications of AI in Art and Music 54:09 Final Thoughts on AI: Potential, Misconceptions, and Future Key Insights Hoon's Uniqueness: Hoon, a programming language for the Urbit project, is noted for its unusual and esoteric qualities, resembling runes and creating a steep learning curve which filters for dedicated developers. Urbit's Development and Influence: Urbit, a new internet and permissionless network, is in a critical development phase. Although it has a small user base, it's highly active, with most users also contributing as developers. Urbit's Future Viability: Urbit's success may partly depend on the decline of conventional alternatives. It offers a private, peer-to-peer social media alternative, setting it apart from mainstream platforms. Concerns Over AI Regulation: There is skepticism about the push for government regulation of AI, particularly around the use of GPUs for AI development. This could lead to an administrative oversight over software, potentially stifling innovation. Artificial Intelligence Misconceptions: There's a critique of the belief that AI could develop dangerous autonomy or consciousness. AI, especially language models, are seen as sophisticated tools lacking the embodiment that characterizes human intelligence. Neural Networks and Machine Learning: The conversation touches on the evolution of AI, including the shift from voice-to-text and image classifiers to current large language models, highlighting the continuous advancement in AI capabilities. Generative Art and Copyright Issues: AI-generated art raises questions about copyright and the use of training data. Artists' concerns about AI models replicating their styles without compensation or acknowledgment are highlighted. Sampling Analogy in AI Art: The analogy between music sampling and AI-generated art is made, suggesting that AI art could face similar legal challenges regarding the use of original artists' work in training data. AI's Potential Misuse vs. Its Nature: While AI can be used negatively by bad actors, it's emphasized that AI itself won't become a bad actor, as it lacks agency and consciousness. Sam Atman's Online Presence: Finally, for those interested in following Sam's work, his main platform is Twitter, where he shares his thoughts and developments in his field.

On this episode of Rehash, we're speaking with María Paula Fernández, co-founder of JPG and a true OG in the NFT space, about living through another bear market, how to be a good web3 art curator, and new blockchain art projects that should be on your radar.We catch up on what MP's been up to since our last recording together and how she's been feeling amidst yet another crypto bear market - and notably one that feels different from previous bear markets she's lived through. Even though overall sentiments are a bit low, I can always rely on Maria to bring some humor into the mix, as we come to the shocking realization that Michael Lewis is in fact the new Tom Cruise (tune into this episode and you'll hear what I mean).We then dive deep into the world of art curation and what the role of a curator is, especially in the web3 world. MP believes a good web3 curator is a good storyteller and a good educator, and we look at a new JPG exhibit, Generative Art Beyond the Algorithm, as an example of good curation. COLLECT THIS EPISODEhttps://www.rehashweb3.xyz/ FOLLOW USRehash: https://twitter.com/rehashweb3Diana: https://twitter.com/ddwchenMP: https://twitter.com/MPtherealmvpJPG: https://twitter.com/______jpg______ LINKSSeptember 2021 interview with María Paula on The Unstoppable Podcast: https://youtu.be/EuhPFMecezYS4 E6 | Art You Can't See w/Sarah Meyhoas & Mitchell Chan: https://rehash.mirror.xyz/-aihBv_hJwt8iWd91XubvPMs_GQxt4sX2GUAWW-hCKkWeb by Jan Robert Leegte: https://web.leegte.org/Stevie P: https://steviep.xyz/Sacra Famiglia by Ann Hirsch: https://www.sacra.family/Dear Scammer by Ann Hirsch: https://www.hiddengems.fyi/p/dear-scammer-letters-by-ann-hirschThe Boys of Summer by Mitchell Chan: https://chan.gallery/boysofsummer/Bitchcoin by Sarah Meyohas: https://sarahmeyohas.com/bitchcoin/Crypto Certs by Ed Fornieles: https://www.edfornielesstudios.com/GALLERY: https://twitter.com/GALLERYGenerative Art Beyond the Algorithm: https://naturalstatic.jpg.space/exhibitionNatural Static: https://naturalstatic.jpg.space/Social Contracts: https://socialcontracts.jpg.space/ TIMESTAMPS0:00 Intro4:32 How MP stays up to date on SBF drama8:32 Is there still too much toxic positivity in crypto?13:45 What successful NFT projects all have in common15:56 MP's favorite NFT projects19:20 Market Makers event in Berlin26:06 What makes a good web3 art NFT curator?37:51 Generative Art Beyond the Algorithm41:26 Natural Static by Jonathan Chomko47:03 Where MP sees NFTs being in 10 years49:22 MP's favorite crypto drama51:49 Follow MP DISCLAIMER: The information in this video is the opinion of the speaker(s) only and is for informational purposes only.

with @alive_eth @danboneh @smc90This week's all-new episode covers the convergence of two important, very top-of-mind trends: AI (artificial intelligence) & blockchains/ crypto. These domains together have major implications for how we all live our lives everyday; so this episode is for anyone just curious about, or already building in the space. The conversation covers topics ranging from deep fakes, bots, and the need for proof-of-humanity in a world of AI; to big data, large language models like ChatGPT, user control, governance, privacy and security, zero knowledge and zkML; to MEV, media, art, and much more. Our expert guests (in conversation with host Sonal Chokshi) include: Dan Boneh, Stanford Professor (and Senior Research Advisor at a16z crypto), a cryptographer who's been working on blockchains for over a decade and who specializes in cryptography, computer security, and machine learning -- all of which intersect in this episode;Ali Yahya, general partner at a16z crypto, who also previously worked at Google -- where he not only worked on a distributed system for a fleet of robots (a sort of "collective reinforcement learning") but also worked on Google Brain, where he was one of the core contributors to the machine learning library TensorFlow built at Google.The first half of the hallway-style conversation between Ali & Dan (who go back together as student and professor at Stanford) is all about how AI could benefit from crypto, and the second half on how crypto could benefit from AI... the thread throughout is the tension between centralization vs. decentralization.  So we also discuss where the intersection of crypto and AI can bring about things that aren't possible by either one of them alone...pieces referenced in this episode/ related reading:The Next Cyber Reasoning System for Cyber Security (2023) by Mohamed Ferrag, Ammar Battah, Norbert Tihanyi, Merouane Debbah, Thierry Lestable, Lucas CordeiroA New Era in Software Security: Towards Self-Healing Software via Large Language Models and Formal Verification (2023) by  Yiannis Charalambous, Norbert Tihanyi, Ridhi Jain, Youcheng Sun, Mohamed Ferrag, Lucas CordeiroFixing Hardware Security Bugs with Large Language Models (2023) by Baleegh Ahmad, Shailja Thakur, Benjamin Tan, Ramesh Karri, Hammond PearceDo Users Write More Insecure Code with AI Assistants?

After a 2021 frothy bull market, NFTs are currently experiencing the depression phase of the market cycle. However, despite the fact that only NFT art has truly found its product-market fit, NFTs in general represented the consumerist moment for crypto. In addition, they also provided a solution for tokenising real world assets (RWA) and intangibles, potentially penetrating markets worth hundreds of trillions of dollars. Moreover, similar to digital art, the advent of AI poses a challenge when it comes to establishing provenance, but this represents another utility for NFTs, as they can be traced back to their origin, given the public nature of blockchains.We were joined by Stephen Young and Storm from NFTFi, to discuss the general state of the NFT market, future prospects for NFT development and how their P2P NFT lending platform unlocks new sources of liquidity in this bear market.Topics covered in this episode:Stephen's & Storm's backgrounds and what allured them to NFT financeNFT market overviewTokenised real world assets (RWA)NFTFi's peer-to-peer vs. peer-to-pool modelsHow other DeFi derivatives apply to the NFT marketNFT vs. fungible token market sizeBlur's BlendNFT royaltiesNFT lending protocols differencesHow escrow contracts affect NFT ownership and utilityNFTFi roadmapInterest rates for different collectionsNFT art marketAI artCollateralizing RWAEpisode links: Stephen Young on TwitterStorm on TwitterNFTFi on TwitterThis episode is hosted by Brian Fabian Crain.
