What are the implications of restaking? Not every Bankless listener will be prepared for this conversation. This one is a hard one. If you want to be adequately equipped for the conversation that awaits, we recommend listening to the Bankless episode we did with Sreeram a few weeks ago. That episode will get you up to speed to understand some of the nuances and problems that are discussed in today’s episode. 

Because, today on the show, we have the largest and most gigabrain panel that we’ve ever had on Bankless…Vitalik Buterin, Justin Drake, Dankrad Feist, Jessy (aka 13-year-old VC - that’s her pseudonym), and of course… Sreeram Kannan himself, founder of Eigenlayer and perhaps the creator of restaking…all moderated by Tim Beiko!

Welcome to Bankless, where we explore the frontier of internet money and internet finance. In this 8-episode series, we are exploring some new frontiers. New frontiers in new technologies, all of which are poised to completely revolutionize the world and change everything about the operating system that society is currently running.

In this first episode with Vitalik, we kick off by discussing the concept of Zuzalu with a birds-eye view. Vitalik helps us unravel the meta-quest of understanding the essence of Zuzalu and its role in curating communities. Discover why Zuzalu was structured in this unique manner, touching upon intriguing elements such as Zupass, zero-knowledge infrastructure, ZuPoll, and Stamps.

Keep an eye out as we roll out the rest of these boundary-pushing episodes!

AI is here to stay, but at what cost? Connor Leahy is the CEO of Conjecture, a mission-driven organization that’s trying to make the future of AI go as well as it possibly can. He is also a Co-Founder of EleutherAI, an open-source AI research non-profit lab.

In today’s episode, Connor and David cover:  1) The intuitive arguments behind the AI Safety debate 2) The two defining categories of ways AI could end all of humanity 3) The major players in the race towards AGI, and why they all seem to be ideologically motivated, rather than financially motivated  4) Why the progress of AI power is based on TWO exponential curves 5) Why Connor thinks government regulation is the easiest and most effective way of buying us time
