<p lang="en-GB" xml:lang="en-GB"><a href="https://u.today/ripple-cto-reveals-surprising-truth-about-ripples-xrp-supply" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Ripple chief technology officer</a> and one of the XRP Ledger founders, David Schwartz, has taken to the X/Twitter social media network to respond to the idea of banning open-source artificial intelligence products.</p>
<p lang="en-GB" xml:lang="en-GB">Analyzing a recent article published by tech magazine IEEE Spectrum, the Ripple CTO issued a critical comment on it, sharing his take on how he sees the role of decentralization in the AI space.</p>
<blockquote>
 <p lang="en" dir="ltr">This is quite literally a complaint that people were given access to tools that can make strong arguments in support of things others judge to be wrongthink. <a href="https://t.co/MbyztNF1V8" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">pic.twitter.com/MbyztNF1V8</a></p>— David "JoelKatz" Schwartz (@JoelKatz) <a href="https://twitter.com/JoelKatz/status/1746693259630424307?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">January 15, 2024</a>

<h2 id="open-source-ai-dangerous-ripple-cto-responds">“Open source AI dangerous,” Ripple CTO responds</h2>
<p lang="en-GB" xml:lang="en-GB">Taking to the X platform, David Schwartz made a sarcastic comment on this article, hinting that the goal of the elite - the wealthy and privileged - is to seize control of tools that can perform unbiased analyses. The rest of the population, according to their logic, should be able to only access “tools purged of anything the elites judge to be wrongthink and unable and unwilling to challenge societal assumptions.”</p>
<p lang="en-GB" xml:lang="en-GB">The article complains about “uncensored” versions of AI systems that are released following the ones with “security features,” and Schwartz commented on it, saying that the article subtly insists that average users should not be given access to “tools that can make strong arguments in support of things others judge to be wrongthink.”</p>
<h2 id="dogecoin-founder-s-statement-on-ai">Dogecoin founder’s statement on AI</h2>
<p lang="en-GB" xml:lang="en-GB">As the new year of 2024 kicked off, Billy Markus, who created the original meme cryptocurrency, Dogecoin, 10 years ago, with Jackson Palmer, <a href="https://u.today/dogecoin-founder-makes-unexpected-ai-statement" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">issued an AI-themed tweet</a>, indicating what a great many of people are likely to start doing this year in attempts to master new opportunities offered by artificial intelligence tools.</p>
<p lang="en-GB" xml:lang="en-GB">In particular, he mentioned "New Year’s resolutions 2024," which included some both joking and serious things to be learned with the help of AI – learning to drive, learning to code, learning to be a lawyer/data scientist/accountant/book author/screenplay writer/musician.</p>
<p lang="en-GB" xml:lang="en-GB">All this is, in theory, possible to achieve by giving the necessary prompts to AI, such as ChatGPT, which works with texts.</p>
<p lang="en-GB" xml:lang="en-GB">Elon Musk has also shared his optimistic view about the future of AI and what it can do for humanity. In a recent interview, the tech mogul stated that humanity is less than three years away from AI writing novels on the level of J.K. Rowling, discovering new physics and generally getting better at everything humans are good at already.</p>
