Haven't seen this train of thought discussed. Takes some interesting comments from Karpathy and others to argue that transformers can distill down things well beyond just text and images

I highly doubt the chip shortage a la increased chip demand from a company perspective has to do with gaming/mining GPU demand.

Much of the supply demand can be traced to increased car chip demand (Toyota cutting production by 40%) as well as general device chip demand across many sectors.

Mining bitcoin is exactly what the author mentions a heat sink not a battery.

But mining bitcoin and capturing excess heat produces a provably scarce and globally accessible digital asset.

You are not transferring energy across time or space. Instead you are directly converting cheaply available energy (usually hydro) into monetary value that can be easily transferred through time and space.

Bitcoin is not a battery it is not a valid analogy. It’s more a store of value of the energy produced. It’s a monetary incentive to capture the cheapest (now mostly hydro, solar, wind potentially nuclear) wherever you can cheaply or safely find/capture it at the source (since energy transport is inefficient over long distances)

Worth reading all chapters that are in here, but chapter 3 gets at the meat of where we're heading. We're at the end of a long credit cycle post WWII, dislocation of the dollar from the gold standard, to bretton woods, to now QE printing of money being loaned to the government by the fed.

Market reflects the cash flow available being printed by the FED to keep the markets up.
