As much as I love to hate on AI: even the bad apples still produce something that one can reasonably work with.

Cryptocurrencies? Barely any other use than money laundering, buying drugs and betting on the outcome of battles in war. And NFTs? No use at all other than money laundering and setting money ablaze.



crypto is a few 100 of billions less big as an industry than GenAI is. I guarantee you that AI is a far better money laundering scheme. mb the two better money laundering schemes would be construction business and the global warming business. doesnt mean that some of the stuff produced is good.


Privacy and security from government overreach is not enough?


What privacy? Enough drug dealers have already been busted with solid evidence from trailing the paths on public blockchains.
