@mert

the only job displacement I look forward to is AI obsoleting modern day professional dress-up artist clowns (actors) from having any sort of voice in society your only skill is pretending to be other people, this shouldn't make you hundreds of millions and it wont soon

@mert Actors giving policy takes One of the jobs AI can’t come soon enough for.

@mert Hey Mert, tell Toly to check on the interns. They open-sourced the @tokens GitHub yesterday, look at the addictive game they slipped in there. If you beat my high score, I’ll either send you 10 SOL or get Helius 20 new subscribers. 😂 x.com/vibhu/status/20866257999…

@mert AI 正在重塑各行各业的边界,当数字分身和生成式影视逐渐走向成熟,传统影视工业与明星演员的高溢价生态确实正面临前所未有的解构。当技术剥离了光环,公众对“价值与回报是否对等”的审视也变得越来越直接。 x.com/Wallet_Journey/status/20…

@mert This guy is a moron in terms of financial commentary. That said actors don’t get paid millions just for their skill they get paid for entertaining millions of people just like professional sports people etc. That has value.

@mert ai won't save us from bad takes but it might end the era of actors as policy wonks

@mert you're rooting for tech that only works because it spent decades studying the exact skill you're calling worthless. the irony writes itself.

@mert So good…

@mert hollywood is deff not gonna like where generative AI is heading

nilraka @nilraka ·

@mert How much money did he lose on crypto.

CryptoEsquire 🐂🀄️ @jjcryptolaw ·

@mert disagree. in an ai driven world where intelligence is a commodity in written form, the art of persuasive speech will be even more important.

Ubik Capital @ubikcapital ·

@mert The transition toward prioritizing verifiable utility over legacy status is a significant shift. It’s interesting to see AI challenge industries where compensation has traditionally outpaced objective output 🤖.

Cedric ₿eau (老李) @Web3BeauCedric ·

@mert Careful what you wish for AI won’t just humble Hollywood actors. It’ll give studios infinite obedient celebrities who never age, never strike, never say no, and can be shaped into whatever propaganda sells best The clown disappears but the circus becomes automated

trent.sol @trentdotsol ·

@mert murt the ai replacements will be used for the same messaging, only arbitrarily tailored for the target audience

ElderberryLind @ElderberryLind ·

@mert why does he remind us not once but twice in a 60 second video that he is day drinking because of clarity getting delayed? I didn't think he was necessarily a drunk before but now i do for sure

PressieMoonBoy @PressieMoonBoy ·

@mert His complaints are “the crypto bros” (?) and trumps crypto corruption which is valid, but how is that directly related to this bill? Purely social signaling vs actual debate on the merits of the bill itself

@mert Automating technical grunt work in film is far more plausible than replacing performance. Timing, subtext, chemistry between actors, these are exactly the nuanced human behaviors AI struggles to replicate at scale.

@mert To be fair, this idiot was barely an actor in the first place.

@mert that’s the first time I hear his name this exact tweet — some guy I didn’t recognize drinking beer he’s become famous (perhaps only in CT?) for anti-crypto activism, not for acting

@mert If clowns shouldn’t have a voice in politics / society… Then why should we allow clowns / “entertainers” to have a voice in financial markets? x.com/MidCurveMortal/status/20…

@mert thought you meant career climbers and not actual theatre actors. takes skill and sacrifice to perform theater, it doesn’t take skill to rank and file corporate talking points

Julian DiCarlo @juliandicarlo ·

@mert The ironic part is that 7 years from now he will quite literally need to go off grid to avoid onchain systems; as they will be ubiquitous across all markets, payments, and internet services.

@mert I think “AI will make actors irrelevant” is the worst AI take I’ve ever seen

Meshnet Capital @MeshnetCapital ·

@mert All this industry has to thank is Trump and his massively grifting scam coins.

scoundrels, scamps and vagabonds @links016 ·

@mert L take, anti-human sentiment is low IQ. Human evolution will go hand in hand with AI

CryptoSensei @Crypt0Senseii · 70K

@mert AI is definitely going to expose how many “high value” jobs are mostly status and performance.

Don Linguinistan @DLHopePope ·

we should all learn from the Romans "Ancient Romans generally viewed actors with deep disdain, considering the profession shameful and stripping performers of their civic rights. While crowds loved the spectacles, Roman law and moralists classified actors as infamis—people of low repute—grouping them alongside slaves and prostitutes because they sold their bodies and voices for public entertainment"

Alohacowboy @alohacowboysol ·

@mert Too many people are focusing on who he is and not enough on the logical errors and outdated information he underpins his entire stance on. AI and crypto are easy sells based on the merits of the tech.
