In capital markets infrastructure low latency and high throughput are the 2 core design principles of any system. Blockchain manages to violate both; how anyone could have thought this is “the future” is beyond me. I still hear all too often “ya blockchain (or cryptocurrency) doesn’t work now but I’m sure it’ll be great and useful eventually!”

Why oh why are people so attached to this proven failed tech idea? I’ll throw it the smallest of bones and say maybe a distributed ledger with cryptographic proofs has some very specific minor use case, but even if that maybe is true for one thing why is it shoved everywhere it doesn’t belong?

I hate this cop out everyone uses when they stuff AI into their system. “By using it it’s actually your fault for believing the information” while also making it the preferred or even only way to try and get information. This is unethical especially in healthcare

I used to think regulations were good and protecting us, then I became someone who wanted to take advantage of you so now regulators are bad. Let me fleece you, stop preventing it

AI influencers are wild. Much like blockchain somehow AI will solve all your problems, but to access the grimoire that is LLM prompts gotta watch a video by someone who claims to have this knowledge access but had their presentation written by ChatGPT
