The research folks were highly skeptical of crypto from the start, but not the latest AI advances.

Yes, they are very much skeptical.

The AI is a fundamental technology that was developed by the scientific method

Lol, what??? ๐Ÿ˜‚

LLMs can be traced back to steady, incremental progress from an initial approach explored in the '70s. Cryptocurrency isn't technology itself, but an application of the concept of distributed consensus (pioneered with PAXOS in the 80s), just like chatbots are applications of AI. I'm much more optimistic about AI and distributed consensus than cryptocurrency and chatbots, if I'm making sense.

Lol. Still not what the scientific method is.
