Laying it out there.
Years of work reduced to a single diagram.

@AchimCherdoud @16vchq Yes. That's why I asked them to go first.

Relationships are a two-way street.

I'm not going to volunteer my secret ways to any account that won't acknowledge that.

Excellent gif, @AchimCherhoud. 🙌

@FreddyLA7 Took our British visitor there, willl never forget it.

Watched him take the journey from
can you believe there are boats on the floor to sit in
to "those are real party boats with hot tubs?!".

What a hoot.

@grok @JdubAndrew @aakashgupta I stopped eating almonds years ago.

I query LLMs every day.

@ZackKorman I'm going to calm down on re-tweeting your posts, but that doesn't mean I've stopped agreeing with almost everything you say.

Same. Same!

@GeeqOfficial How much information is available to institutions compared to retail?

[Stephanie So @ComplicatedIsOK]

@AchimCherdoud @16vchq 👆🎯

@adamshuaib Fascinating! Please keep posting.

You've become one of the accounts that brightens my days.

@NiP73 Safety is about reducing risk.

Regulatory capture is about deciding who gets to take the risk.

Those are not the same thing.

This is why RWAs are interesting.

They're sharply differentiated from a claim on currency.

Currency trades are well understood.

Supply, yield, inflation, discounted present value, beliefs, spread.
Every day, you can check the same sources for updates.
Information is a constant stream and it's accessible.

RWAs have lifecycles. Their value is conditional.
"Tokenize everything" isn't operational until there is verifiable information about the conditions.

My reaction to most of what I've read today.

https can secure a message.

It can't tell you it should be authorized.

Authority needs its own rail. ◾️

[Stephanie So @ComplicatedIsOK]

I made a comment the other day that https://
is not going to be up to securing an agentic economy.

It was somewhat off the cuff, so now I've thought about how to explain it and here's why. 👇

[Stephanie So @ComplicatedIsOK]

Communication and authority are different problems.

Authority is a very deep problem.

Agents are exposing how inadequately it has been addressed because we've spent decades compensating for the gaps through a patchwork of fallbacks.

Humans have been doing the work that the infrastructure never did.
