The Nature of Deferral

David Ding: Regeneration

What does it truly mean to be sovereign in the digital age, and how can we navigate trustless transactions without sacrificing our freedom? Join me as I explore the implications of deferring authority within the realm of digital transactions. Discover the power of self-empowerment and the balance between risk, reward, and responsibility in the digital age.
I also delve into the complexities of sovereignty, dependency, and responsibility as they pertain to the ownership and stewardship of material possessions and how true sovereignty means maintaining responsibility even when we defer our authority, toucing on the idea of revoking delegated authority as a means of retaining our freedom and the potential impact of not doing so.
Lastly, I use the example of tech giants OpenAI and their responsibility to ensure the common good. I highlight the need for OpenAI to set the standard for transitioning their assets as a singularity back to the people, while still incentivising innovation and training for their models. I then delve into the potential for collaboration and building upon existing work to ensure that everyone benefits from the collective commons with the prevalence of self-sovereignty in the realm of data and identity. Don't miss this eye-opening deep dive into authority, trust, and the future of transactions.
