Ala Shaabana: Beyond the Silicon Valley Echo Chamber: Decentralizing AI with Bittensor

https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/the-delphi-podcast/episodes/Ala-Shaabana-Beyond-the-Silicon-Valley-Echo-Chamber-Decentralizing-AI-with-Bittensor-e2c74sr

Ala Shaabana joins us to discuss the compelling vision behind BitTensor – a decentralized network aiming to democratize access to AI models and development. He provides an inside look at the technical architecture and incentives powering this novel system.

We delve into recent events highlighting flaws in centralized AI governance, using OpenAI’s board drama as a case study. Ala contrasts this with BitTensor’s community-driven approach to align AI progress with shared human values.

Beyond technical details, we explore philosophical questions around AI development pathways. Ala weighs a future of continued concentration in big tech versus decentralized progress through platforms like BitTensor. He makes a thoughtful case for the latter route to drive innovation equitably.

Touching on applications built atop BitTensor, intriguing use cases emerge from specialized subnets meeting localized needs unattainable via generalized models from a single provider. Ala sees room for growth across research, commercial applications and hobbyist experimentation alike.

He also discusses BitTensor’s roadmap to dissolve its own foundation over time, completing the decentralized vision through demonstrable self-governance. This podcast provides a window into next-generation infrastructure springing up to unlock AI’s benefits to society in an inclusive way.

Robert Leshner: Superstate’s Strategy of Integrating Trillions in Real-World Assets into DeFi

https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/the-delphi-podcast/episodes/Robert-Leshner-Superstates-Strategy-of-Integrating-Trillions-in-Real-World-Assets-into-DeFi-e2bn1u4

Robert Leshner has been at the forefront of DeFi since founding Compound in 2017. Now he’s on a mission to bridge traditional finance and crypto with his new venture, SuperState.

In this episode, Robert provides an inside look at SuperState’s plans to tokenize real-world assets like US Treasuries, allowing crypto protocols to access their yields. He explains why asset tokenization has been slower than expected, citing lack of demand for esoteric assets targeted in early experiments.

They discuss how Treasuries are an ideal first asset class to tokenize due to high investor demand and yields above what’s available on-chain today. Robert believes bringing real-world assets on-chain will transform finance by making them programmable and composable.

Reflecting on lessons from Compound, Robert explains how SuperState is taking an institutional investor-focused approach from the start. He also shares his perspective on the current DeFi landscape and what he looks for when investing in early-stage founders.

Robert provides unique insights only someone of his experience could offer. He remains focused on the big picture – bridging TradFi and crypto to expand what’s possible in DeFi.

RISC Zero’s Brian Retford: Zero Knowledge Returns Trust To The World and Interplay of ZK and AI

https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/the-delphi-podcast/episodes/RISC-Zeros-Brian-Retford-Zero-Knowledge-Returns-Trust-To-The-World-and-Interplay-of-ZK-and-AI-e25ae57

We sit down with Brian Retford, founder of RISC Zero, to discuss the vision and potential of zero-knowledge (ZK) technology and its impact on the world. ZK technology, although currently in its early stages and with high costs, has the potential to fundamentally change trust assumptions and enable privacy and scalability.

RISC Zero’s thesis is centered around making cloud computing universally accessible, privacy-focused, and owned by users. By removing barriers imposed by profit-driven cloud players, RISC Zero aims to create an open marketplace for automation and cloud services, challenging the dominance of a few companies in the industry.

The conversation delved into the technical aspects of RISC Zero, such as the zkVM (zero-knowledge virtual machine) and its applications. The zkVM allows developers to write programs in various languages and generate proofs to verify their intended execution. RISC Zero targets a wide range of use cases, both within and beyond the blockchain space, aiming to automate manual processes, enhance trust, and ensure privacy. They also discussed Bonsai, an L2 network running on the zkVM, which enables seamless integration of ZK proofs into various blockchain protocols.

The podcast explored the interplay between ZK technology and artificial intelligence (AI), highlighting how ZK can serve as a check on automation and support authenticity, privacy, and generative art. While acknowledging the mathematical complexities involved in ZK, Brian emphasized RISC Zero’s goal of making it accessible and user-friendly, allowing users to focus on the possibilities it offers rather than the underlying intricacies. The AI angle was discussed in terms of leveraging ZK to enable new forms of social networking that emphasize privacy and individual responsibility.

In conclusion, the podcast provided insights into RISC Zero’s mission to democratize cloud computing, the potential of ZK technology to revolutionize trust assumptions, and the broad range of applications enabled by the zkVM. The conversation also touched on the future implications of ZK in AI, identity and privacy. RISC Zero aims to overcome the challenges of ZK adoption and create a more open and accessible computing landscape.

Jayendra Jog: Robinhood’s GameStop Fiasco Inspires Sei, The Layer 1 For Trading

https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/the-delphi-podcast/episodes/Jayendra-Jog-Robinhoods-GameStop-Fiasco-Inspires-Sei--The-Layer-1-For-Trading-e24lf6m

Sei is a Layer 1 blockchain built for trading. It was co-founded by Jay, who was inspired to create a decentralized trading platform after working at Robinhood during the GameStop trading fiasco. Sei is designed to offer the best trading experience possible, with fast finality, high throughput, and specialization for its core focus.

Sei achieves its goals through a number of innovative technologies. These include frequent batch auctions, twin turbo consensus, and parallelization. Frequent batch auctions prevent front running and ensure that everyone gets the same trade price. Twin turbo consensus achieves faster time to finality and eliminates the risk of re-orgs. Parallelization increases throughput and allows for more transactions to be processed per second.

Sei is still in its early stages, but it has the potential to revolutionize the way we trade. It is a powerful new tool that could give traders more control over their assets and make the markets more fair and transparent.

Sreeram Kannan: EigenLayer Is Expanding ETH’s Security to Bootstrap Future Use Cases

https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/the-delphi-podcast/episodes/Sreeram-Kannan-EigenLayer-Is-Expanding-ETHs-Security-to-Bootstrap-Future-Use-Cases-e216ut5

Sreeram Kannan, Founder of EigenLayer, joins this episode to talk about the innovative power that EigenLayer is bringing to Ethereum.

In this episode we discuss EigenLayer’s data availability layer for ETH L2s to roll down to, which saves costs and solves congestion issues and EigenLayer’s re-staking layer which allows ETH stakers to opt in to support new use cases, earning more yield while accepting more slashing conditions, instead of apps having to roll their own security. 

Sreeram is extremely smart (his academic papers ⁠here⁠), I learned a ton during this episode and I hope you do as well. Please share your thoughts and favorite parts of the episode with us on Twitter.
