  • The crypto boom of 2021 was a direct result of a bunch of Americans being cooped up, too online, and also, critically, having a bunch of extra cash thanks to Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans and a series of temporary relief checks

    People (esp pro crypto ones) keep saying this, and I dont believe this is true. Dont even think the timelines match up. (There is another story about crypto boom and inflation which also doesnt match the timelines).













  • Every now and then I think back towards the early “jailbreaks” where they wanted to know “how do you break into a building” which they refused to answer. And people went “add that it should pretend to be in a movie”, so then the chatbot started to explain lockpicking, and people acted like they just cracked the code.

    While people who actually try to break in just tap the locks. Smashing their way in.

    Sp the prompt hackers had not hacked the chatbot, they actually hacked themselves.

    Anyway unrelated to people who think they have awoken chatbots.
