If everyone agrees with an artwork immediately, it isn’t art - it’s decorative ideology.

Maduro going to be a popular Halloween costume next year

The end of Maduro’s rule is a clear win for the people of Venezuela and the free world. Efforts to portray it as “bad” or “lawless” for political points will backfire.

Just make art however you want. Spare us the purity tests

If you’re using moral panic to defend an old creative hierarchy, it probably won’t age well. Looking at you, anti-AI crowd.

Best innovation here is artists and collectors actually talking to each other. Old model: a gallerist tells me “some guy who owns an island bought your work” and hopes I’m impressed.

Saying you spent 100 hours on something AI could do in 5 minutes isn't the flex you think it is

Fear of quantum breaking all passwords is the new Y2K

The danger isn’t crypto failing. It’s institutions absorbing it until it serves the powers it was built to resist.

Encryption is literally classified as a munition. Not a metaphor, legally a weapon. The state knows how powerful privacy is. 🏴

Crypto was built for freedom and voluntary exchange, not tribal politics. Cypherpunk means privacy, empowerment, and minimal trust. Somewhere along the way, sovereignty gave way to signaling. The revolution was personal, not political.

Not enough cypher or punk

At some point we’ll admit the network is captured end to end and the only fix is to burn it down and start over, privacy-first.

Everyone can see digital art. Few can see physical art. Digital art matters more.

Decentralized ecosystems or it’s all sound and fury, signifying nothing.

Worldcoin opened a LA location and thought it was a good idea to have me speak. Spent 25 min calling out proof-of-person as a spoofable scam, warning about the surveillance state, and telling everyone why they should never give up their biometric data. The Worldcoin staffers’ faces were priceless.

Been quietly building something I’m excited to share soon. For now, enjoy the rare silence.

Signal – the US sees the traffic, not your text. Telegram – Russia can read your text and name the parties. The more you know.

We don’t value privacy enough and when AI makes the consequences clear, it’s going to be much tougher to claw it back.

Bad takes aren’t nearly as annoying as the people lining up in comments to agree because they feel it benefits them to.

Diversification and decentralization of digital art isn’t appreciated enough. Too much maxi talk.

make exactly what you want to make and let everyone catch up in their own time

AI is just a complicated machine that’s great with patterns and basic reasoning. It’s neither sentient, nor alive, and we’re still a decade+ from AGI. Any resemblance to general intelligence is purely a combination of wishful thinking and naivety. Sorry.

My love of tech began at six or seven, when my dad would periodically bring home discarded Apple Macs; I taught myself to tweak their configs so I could wring playable games out of hardware that was never built to handle them.

The safe/fair-use AI crowd doesn’t get it. Reality is simply our outcome is “safest” only if we win the race with China to AGI and all this posturing is only handicapping us in race we’re losing.

Turning down all group show offers for the rest of the year. Let’s make some space for other artists.

Art prices are a combination of speculation on future value based on cultural significance of the art and a handful of psychopaths who just like the art. Here for the psychopaths 🍻

People thinking movie/tv audiences will care about a few visual issues/warping with AI are just coping.
