    What do you think AI has to do with crypto, other than that they are both technologies which have entered the mainstream recently and been pushed hard? Like, what do they actually have in common?

      the crypto scam ended when the AI scam started. AI conveniently uses the same/similar hardware that crypto used before the bubble burst.

      that not enough? take a look at this google trends that shows when interest in crypto died AI took off.

      so yeah, there’s a lot more that connects the two than what you’d like people to believe.

        Hold the phone, I found two things that are even more closely related

        The fact that they both use the GPU is mildly interesting, but means nothing beyond conspiracy theories. These events were set in motion decades ago, it’s not like AI was invented because Crypto died.

        Yes, I am aware of the irony of the website I got that chart from now using GenAI everywhere. That doesn’t make my point less true though.
