What Freedom Means In the Age of AI [feat. Venice.ai Founder Erik Voorhees]
18 september 2024 |
61 min
In this episode, Venice AI co-founder Erik Voorhees joins the AI Daily Brief to discuss pressing issues around AI and freedom. We cover the arrest of Telegram's founder, the ongoing debates about California's SB 1047, and the broader concerns of AI regulation and privacy. Erik offers his perspective on the risks of centralizing AI under government control and explores the potential for decentralized, open-source alternatives. This conversation sheds light on the future of AI and its impact on personal freedom and privacy.
About our guest: Erik is the founder of Venice.ai, a generative AI chat interface, which enables anyone, anywhere, access to private and uncensored AI powered by leading open-source AI models. A visionary technology entrepreneur, in 2014, Erik founded the digital asset exchange platform, ShapeShift, and served as its CEO until July 2021, when the exchange became the first VC-backed company to fully decentralize all corporate structure by converting into a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO). Prior to ShapeShift, Erik founded SatoshiDICE, the first widely-popular Bitcoin betting game in 2012, and served as the Head of Marketing and Communications at BitInstant, the first venture-backed Bitcoin startup. Erik is a vocal advocate of free and open markets, the right to privacy and the fundamental importance of decentralized applications. Erik continues to play a pivotal role in shaping the narrative around decentralization, capitalism, and cryptocurrency, regularly appearing on Bloomberg, Fox Business, CNBC, and BBC Radio, among others. His influence and insights were featured within the 2014 documentary, “The Rise and Rise of Bitcoin,” and the 2016 documentary, “Banking on Bitcoin”.
