Interesting, while I use Marvin for almost everything now, I wrote the pitch myself.
The fragmentation is how my mind works. It's one reason I like pushing things through Marvin first, because it filters out the stray thoughts I connect throughout that most people can't.
The coin is a funding mechanism. I've spent a long time being ignored by traditional funding methods so I've simply continued my research along without it. Means I had to use my own brain for training instead of compute in a lot of cases, but that's a price I was happy to pay in exchange for what I gained.
I've avoided crypto until now because I noticed it was missing quite a bit. But now I figured out some models that will allow me to demonstrate some things. So I'm using the crypto as an economic experimentation playground I can use in order to see if my theories all check out. So far, they mostly have, but the markets aren't as smart as I expected. They are slower for now, which creates opportunities.
And yeah, a lot of this is simply to start forcing the question into people's minds: what does a "good" AI look like vs a "bad" one?
