Can Bitcoin Thrive in the AI-Centric Future? with Nic Gregory

In this episode, Brad Mills is joined by Nicolas Gregory, an AI connoisseur, fervent bitcoiner, and co-writer of the CivKit White Paper. Amidst a backdrop of financial tumult as depicted in cinematic tales such as “Margin Call” and “The Big Short,” Gregory recounts his evolution from a software engineer entrenched in the throes of the 2010 banking crisis to a pioneer in the Bitcoin and distributed computing revolution. The episode delves into the mass exodus of top-tier talent from traditional finance to tech giants and startups, igniting an AI renaissance that threatens to reshape industries and employment. They explore the increasing centralization of AI, its impact on cybersecurity, and the looming threat of job displacement, even within the programming sector.

My name is Brad Mills, I am a Bitcoiner. I'm an average person, I just got into Bitcoin early. I'm not a coder, I look at this space from the point of view of a regular user. I believe BTC is the best form of money. It’s free speech money. Digital Gold. Programmable money for the age of the Internet, uncensorable, peer to peer cash. A new asset class, a store of value. One of the most important open source inventions of our time, gifted to the world by an anonymous creator whose identity is still not known! I fell down the rabbit hole & have been following Bitcoin since 2011. This podcast is my evolving journey in the world of cryptocurrency as I try to reconcile my bitcoin maximalist philosophy & my respect for the Austrian Economic, Libertarian & Cypherpunk roots of bitcoin's creation with the desire to stack BTC by investing in the rest of the space. I hope you enjoy the conversations.
