NFTs are Dead
Non-fungible tokens (NFTs) have been a hot topic in the tech world over the past few years. But with a recent crash in the NFT market and many people losing money, some are wondering if NFTs are dead, the answer is yes.
There are a number of factors that have contributed to the recent decline in the NFT market. One factor is the overall decline in the cryptocurrency market. Cryptocurrencies are the digital assets that are used to buy and sell NFTs. So, when the cryptocurrency market is down, the NFT market is likely to be down as well.
Another factor that has contributed to the decline in the NFT market is the realization that many NFTs are not worth the money that people are paying for them. Many NFTs are simply digital images or videos that can be easily copied and pasted. So, there is no real intrinsic value to many NFTs, the are useless.
The NFT market has mostly been scams and fraud. There have been many cases of people creating fake NFTs and selling them to unsuspecting buyers, and the fake NFTs were exactly the same as the original. This has led to a loss of confidence in the NFT market.
So, are NFTs dead? YES.
Here are some additional reasons why NFTs are dead:
The NFT market is still very new and full of idiots, scams and fraudsters operating in the market.
The vast majority of NFTs have no real utility or value. Many NFTs are simply digital images or videos that can be easily copied and pasted.
The NFT market is a scam.
AI is the Neat Handwriting of the Illiterate
A model in the hands of someone who has read the filing and walked the plant is a clerk. The same model, speaking for someone who has done neither, is a disguise. On AI slop, phantom citations and factslop, why finish stopped being evidence of work, and the containment layer KXCO built so a machine cannot speak as the institution until a source is attached.
Worthship: Do Not Conform to the Age
Worthship is the older English word for worship, and it means to ascribe worth. Bishop Robert Barron preached Romans 12 on 30 August. This essay follows the text into the prison letters, and puts two questions to a graph: do the four readings of that Sunday agree, and was Paul free or in chains when he wrote about despair?
The Truth in All Its Ugliness Must Survive
A majority vote does not determine the truth. Consensus is a mood, gossip is a sport, and a model will write the pretty version for free. Why the ugly number has to survive, why a record beats a dashboard, and what KXCO was built to keep standing when the room changes its mind.
Don't Be the Best, Be the Only: Winning in an AI World
AI is repricing competence downward. What it cannot reproduce is a life. The case for remaining non-fungible, why friction still produces the best ideas, and what it means to build AI systems that keep the human intellect in them.
