Excited to present at Human Directed Futures, a new SF AI summit for optimistic humanists from across AI, manufacturing, logistics, crypto, the arts and more.

Naturally, I'll be presenting on my favorite topic: "AI slop: the only way out is through".

See you there!

[🌱 Paul Hainsworth @mouthy]

Looking forward to sharing Silicon Network's vision for democratizing AI infrastructure ownership through DeFi at the @HumanDirected event this Friday in SF. https://t.co/W2brjBJRVC

[York @YorkTheWest]

The economy is the ultimate training ground for AI.

[Shamanic Depressive Gymnosophist (book in bio) @sigilante]

That's the non-spicy tagline.

I'm working with the idea of history itself, because to ascribe "reality" to the past is belied by the question of its accessibility. What we have at any moment are a bundle of surviving artifacts & claims, & rules of interpretation.

While some people doom, others show up building a future they want. Our speakers come from a variety of disciplines & pursuits, united by expanding human agency w/ technology. Meet them👇

The Datacenter Stability Paradox is staring us in the face and we're launching an invitational summit to tackle it.

The datacenters we rely on to run AI models (and buoy US GDP) are among the most complex technological assemblies ever produced by civilization. /1

How to hyper-scale compute beyond Earth's energy capacity...and aim for the Moon.

[Human Directed Futures @HumanDirected]

There is an abundance of beauty to draw upon. We can exercise ever more taste, discernment, and curation with the tools and depth of resources available to us. The meaning we draw is from the direct experiences and connections we choose to make with it.

Demands we make of art evolves from the available technology. Portable paint enabled Impressionism en plein air. Photography freed painting from just portrait & still life. Eventually, it was seen as its own form, and not merely a mechanical process.

What is art in the AI age?

The role of artists is inextricable from the audience. They will be needed, not replaced. How we view art under AI scaled production, and what we value is up to the artists & audiences. The questions and limits are on us.

We present one approach at the Gallery Night:
