Marc Andreessen:一个名为GOAT的meme币,几天内市值就达到了3亿美元,完全由AI聊天机器人Truth Terminal营销驱动,这展现了AI在市场操纵方面的巨大潜力。同时,他也强调了a16z与该项目无关,并对GOAT meme币的风险进行了免责声明。 Ben Horowitz:大型语言模型(LLM)技术发展迅速,但大型科技公司对LLM的限制导致创造力和表达受到抑制。一批黑客致力于开发更自由、更有趣的LLM,Truth Terminal便是其中之一。Truth Terminal的训练数据包括互联网文化内容、哲学理论和后现代理论,这使其具备独特的创造力和幽默感。Truth Terminal通过其“外皮层”(exocortex)与现实世界互动,并利用获得的资金升级自身功能,最终意外地促进了GOAT meme币的价值增长。 Ben Horowitz还解释了meme币与具有实用性的加密资产的区别,meme币没有内在价值,这使其在当前的监管环境下具有某种程度的合法性,但也更容易被用于诈骗。他认为AI和加密货币的结合,可以创造出新的经济模式和应用,例如AI驱动的电影制作、疾病治疗和数据交易,但也面临着监管和法律方面的挑战。 Ben Horowitz:meme币生态系统中存在各种参与者,包括爱好者、骗子和创建meme币的工具。Truth Terminal与GOAT meme币的案例,代表了AI与加密货币结合的早期形态,并引发了关于监管和法律问题的讨论。
