A concept which aligns nicely with Solarpunk. 🙂
meow i dont think it aligns nicely at all, why peopld keep trying to insert blockchian an ai into solarpunk? they dont fit! no consideration for environmental impacts… a communal city works bettr than ur DACs.
Stopped reading at blockchain technology.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blockchain is what it is
“… it’s not secure, it’s not safe, it’s not reliable, it’s not trustworthy, it’s not even decentralized, it’s not anonymous, it’s helping destroy the planet. I haven’t found one positive use. For blockchain, it was nothing that couldn’t be done better without it.”
—Bruce Schneier, Bruce Schneier on the Crypto/Blockchain Disaster
If you can’t find a use case that it’s better than something else you’re being disingenuous. Stupid comment.
Even a tennis racquet with no strings is better than one with, at something. Eg being a necklace.
This blog post looks like it is written by AI. It might be a good concept for a little science fiction story but nothing more.
Yeah it looks that way because I used GPT4 to help me rearrange some stuff. Also did it a while back when I was relatively new to it and hadn’t completely made up my mind on what level of AI contribution I was comfortablw with.
Sure it’s scifiesque but I don’t feel it’s that far fetched.
I recommend not using AI for your personal blog posts but you do you. Anyone who has even little interest with llms can see the bland formatting of the text. I think it is very boring. Even badly written blog posts interest me more.
Well yeah I totally agree. I’m im the same place now, wasn’t as much back then 🙂
Now I can see them from a mile away : “In the world of subject matter” 😅
That post is due for a rewrite. Beauty of version control; everything is ephemeral and subject to continual improvements.
I really love Lemmy and the honest well thought out feedback.
As a propent of DAOs and efforts like cybersyn I want to like this article, but it is entirely to optimistic and implies too much on the tools mentioned.
It would be better to limit the scope of what is actually being addressed and starting there. DAOs for example do offer a way to do transparent and codified governence. Building on top of public block chains helps provide a system with a root of trust that is transparent and built to difficult to corrupt (as in operates as defined).
Their is some synergies too with digitalization, digital twins, and robotics by putting more in digital realm makes the codified governmence of the DAOs more tangible.
As this stuff grows more and more relevent (governce systems that need to keep up with the pace of the modern world, for house just lookatt how much permits contributed to housing in affordability) I think its important for people like solarpunks and other socially minded folks are pushing forward using them where it makes sense to advance pur causes.
That said again, they are just tools, you could make hellDAO where the purpose is make life worse for everyone, crush the poor, sick the healthy, drill more oil, etc. All just as easily as the Utopian goals you played out, which to be frank is not easy, possible, but requires the code to be written, the systems built, and the people to actually buy in and use.
