Fire, the Wheel, Blockchain and Artificial Intelligence (“AI”)? What are all things that can ruin your day or make it infinitely better.
Have you ever been on a hike and couldn’t wait to get back to the campfire? Have you ever been without a taxi in the middle of nowhere? Have you ever needed to prove someone has graduated from Harvard, Yale, or another prestigious institution? Have you ever needed to generate an image of a racoon playing the ukulele? (Ok, that last one is a bit rarer I admit)
Introducing Hughes’s Law Of Fundamentals: If a product or service is so game-changing, derivatives are produced naturally. Think the Uber of X, the Airbnb of Y, or the millions of uses for blockchain-based record-keeping systems. The lightbulb was such a good idea it became the symbol for an idea! And now we send information through fiber optics so you can send cat videos to (almost) every inch of the globe!
That’s the thing about great ideas and products; there are nearly infinite uses. Look at the Internet now, the wheel at the dawn of time, fire and its properties throughout time. (Yes, I know fire technically isn’t an idea, but its uses are incredible, and as far as we know, we are the only planet with fire 🔥 even with James Webb Space Telescope (“JWT”) in the sky, and we are the species that has harnessed it best). They all have tremendously ground-changing implications. And, as some of you know, the insanity of my life has brought me back to video games to relax and calm my mind. A form of active meditation, if you will. The thing about the best video games (MMORPG=massive multiplayer online role-playing game) is that they all have a skill tree. A way for your player to level up and become stronger and better. The best games incorporate this as the game gets harder, and I think that’s where we are. We are at some of the hardest levels of the game, but we’ve unlocked blockchain, and while we have not yet unlocked general AI, we have managed to go from machine learning to generative AI in very quick succession (Remember GPT 2?!). We are on the precipice of being able to solve a million of the world’s problems by tying funding to the actual objective that that funding was meant for.
Basically, I’m tired of saving the sea turtles. I want eternal solutions. The Blue Rock Organization is working on these Eternal Solutions for our three pillars of (1) feed people, (2) teach people, and (3) take care of the Earth, so that we can use blockchain and AI more to unlock more of the skill tree to usher in a truly New Renaissance, where information isn’t kept behind ivory towers and big corporate walls.
For example, I firmly believe that if you put enough monkeys (we are all monkeys in clothes) on a planet, they are going to want to communicate, including disinformation and misinformation. In order to stop that from happening, a blockchain-like system would be fundamental to make sure that a shipment from space was the right product or the right transmission to another colony. I also believe that because monkey brains are simple, we cannot possibly store all the information we need to advance in this skill tree; hence the logical evolution of AI.
Another example: I had Claude work on perfect numbers (numbers where the sum of divisors equals the number; 1+2+3=6) with me after seeing an article on Reddit that it was crushing advanced chemistry. (Claude rules; other AIs have their own purpose, as Claude said). I was able to advance through some compelling mathematical simulations that eventually caused me to get timed out because I was pushing so hard. But what we uncovered is that the 6th perfect number is weird, and after the 6th perfect number (6, 28, 496, 8,128, 33,550,336, 8,589,869,056, and 137,438,691,328 and 51 numbers total), the math gets real big. So big, in fact, it’s like it’s saying, “Hey, the number six is the key; the 6th number is the cipher for unlocking bit processing efficiency to discover more perfect numbers.” If I’m right, juicy potential world-changing information could be found in the 60th and 600th numbers, which would require such computing power right now that we still haven’t managed to discover a new perfect number since 2018! 6-damn-years ago!
To make this point clear, where there are literally hundreds of thousands of machines running Great Internet Mersenne Prime Search (“GIMPS”) software to crunch the numbers and Claude, as powerful as it is, can’t even get too high up the ladder, we are very far behind the actual skill tree. This is a great use for a blockchain called Proof of Perfect, if you ask me. (Shoutout to Gary from Gauss for finding Primecoin; that’s on the right track https://github.com/primecoin)
So, where does that leave us? We need to use AI and blockchain for good in order to advance on the skill tree. Repressive regimes don’t improve and advance technology like this. We need to explore why Google’s Gemini has been acting accidentally racist lately. We need to have an open and honest discussion about why generative AI may help people from trauma and possibly reduce sexual assaults and violence. We need to work in a collaborative effort to unlock the harder levels of the skill tree for all of us and the future generations. But most importantly, we should do all this so we can finally travel the stars and colonize Mars and other celestial bodies before something terrible happens to this one that is beyond our control. Plus, I want to take a selfie on the moon one day.
If you have a dream or idea, these products and services could help you advance that farther and cheaper than anytime before in human history. Chase those dreams. Do it objectively and without malice (you can use hatred, more on that to come), but you must chase those dreams in order to make them a reality. That’s the silly thing about monkeys in clothes; we have had the best luck out of all species in turning our dreams into reality, and yet we still don’t call it magic, yet. Maybe once we discover the secret code hidden within mathematics to learn that Lady Luck likes those who create entropy in the Universe. The Second Law of Thermodynamics says so.
So, what are you waiting for? Go create (good) chaos. I know I am.
