This interview is 2 months old, but I haven’t seen it discussed so far and given the news about reddit’s new cryptobeaniebabies, here it goes. This is a critique of the tech hype cycle, LLMs, VR, the metaverse failure, NFTs and cryptocurrencies with a refreshing historical awareness of past attempts that failed, like second life and VR games. Adam Conover’s interviewee is Dan Olson https://www.vice.com/en/article/m7v5qq/meet-the-guy-who-went-viral-on-youtube-for-explaining-how-nfts-crypto-are-a-poverty-trap
oh shiiiit, didnt know about this thanks for the headup
You mean Adam Conover’s interviews? Me neither, this is completely new to me too, he’s like a literate Joe Rogan and less formal Lex Friedman :)
Yes but I adore Dan’s videos and how he explains things so Im happy to get more content involving him
I didn’t know Dan, but when I heard he actually studied theology, I finally understood his meticulous understanding and debunking of the crypto delusion, NFTs and tech hypecycles in general, now I’m watching “line go up” :)
