The Pregame

OpenAI Can't Save You (w/ CK, Matt Ahlborg, & Kyle Olney)


Listen Later

In preparation for their Live at PubKey show downstairs, Christian "CK" Keroles, Matt Ahlborg, and Kyle Olney (with host Thomas Pacchia⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠) crack open a few cold ones and pregame in the PubKey NYC Parlor, where they let loose for an UNFILTERED conversation about:


  • Why Tether adoption in Argentina exploded while Bitcoin lagged behind
  • The problem with centralized AI APIs
  • Why OpenAI’s success mirrors Stripe’s (but who really controls the Internet?)
  • How PayPerQ could reshape AI access for activists, educators, and anyone sick of SaaS models
  • Bitcoin's cultural split: is it still a tool for dissidents, or has it gone full TradFi?
