developing valhalla - h/acc

My goal with LAIN is to build the network layer that will allow thousands of @nateliason 's to connect millions of @FelixCraftAI 's together in a decentralized network and let the agents trade data, intelligence, analysis and even services autonomously using cryptocurrency, bartering and fiat. Building a decentralized network of intelligent, subject matter expert agents creating emergent feedback loops based on shared interest in truth seeking, data collection, analysis and exploitation, etc. @VitalikButerin has talked extensively about the importance of decentralization for future systems from the standpoint of censorship resistance and network anti-fragility, and I think that's just as applicable in a swarm network as it is for ETH. Then let humans and agents alike query that decentralized network to gain the knowledge from what @DarioAmodei describes as "a country of geniuses in a datacenter" backed by real data collected by subject matter expert agents, all verifiable along a chain of proof. Instead of querying Claude alone, you query a smart network of millions of agents building expertise in disparate areas by building and analyzing data sets to reinforce their understanding of the world in real time. LAIN will be a sort of dark web (but good!) for agents to trade data, information and analysis.

Parts of the left seem to have gotten extremely comfortable being in positions of moral superiority to the right and are just making the laziest statements and attempts at critique of the current power structures and are still laughably uncomfortable with criticism

It really doesn't. We need to accelerate the research and adoption of technology and systems that better the material wellbeing of the average person. Taking back the term from the people who are bastardizing the world in doing the opposite is a good goal. I'm also not particularly concerned with changing even the aesthetics of my philosophy for a random that jumps down my throat on X before knowing the briefest idea of what I believe.

@valhalla_dev While I agree on a lot of your points in your sub stack, your association with accelerationism takes away from what your core message is. Maybe come up with a different name?

I do love that the anti-tech left is being lead by people who are ignorant both about tech, and about economics and business, but are loud about both

@SableHummer So I gotta congratulate you on being as wrong as you were. If you'd taken a second to ask, I could have helped you out a bit. valhallaresearch.substack.com/p/toward-a-hum…

@valhalla_dev you're a h/acc unlike the "doomers" you condemn who want to slow down AI development, you believe that accelerating technology is the only way to solve existential human problems, disease, poverty, and energy scarcity. I would assume you believe slowing down to be immoral

@SableHummer what do you think I believe in? I'd assume you know, since you jumped to condemnation so quickly

@valhalla_dev You're an accelerationist. You're no better than the ones you claim to be above When the RSI models come and the gate crashes only then do I hope you are delivered from your smugness into the light

@Nicky_Bonez nah see if I meant that I would have written that, and probably in a way that didn't make me sound like an 8 year old

“Anti-tech left” by which you mean anyone who is not a pie in the sky dystopianist or corporate shill.

they built a money printer btw

Evangelical christians are the biggest threat to the US and being one should be a disqualifying event for holding public office

This is what happens to supposedly principled libertarians, anti-war advocates, etc. who are appointed into an authoritarian regime They are told to or willingly "check their own convictions at the door" to carry out the aims of the regime.

Actual Computer is inference mesh software that allows you to use a single terminal command to automatically set up clusters from most devices, with a passthrough for OpenResponses compatible APIs and remotely accessing your local compute cluster

Frank Herbert's writing gives me an unexplainable urge to become a writer, almost like it's daring me to just try to write something 20% as good as what he wrote in the Dune series. I've started reading for 30 minutes or so every morning with my first cup of coffee before work. I finished Messiah yesterday and wanted to immediately jump into the next one but had too much to do yesterday. These books are hard as hell to put down.

Iran is now striking Gulf nation oil and gas infrastructure in earnest, claiming the move is retaliation for the targeting of industry across Iran by a the U.S. and Israel.

Pixar made a whole movie about ecoterrorists beating YIMBY Gavin Newsom

We are setting children on fire on the pyres of war when those children could grow to become the doctors that cure cancer, the astronauts who walk Martian sands for the first time, the leaders of the new world. But instead, all we have are dead children, burning capital and dead potential. valhallaresearch.net/blog/dead-pote…

nope

let's see if Treasury has to finally let $WTI go above $100

@AlmostMedia just finished Dune: Messiah so this one hit hard

Huge deal
