#173 - Liberman - We’re Training AI to Get Rid Of Us
The Peter McCormack Show
Parallels with Bitcoin's Decentralisation
David compares the AI centralisation struggle to Bitcoin's battle between centralized money and alternatives.
Two brothers who escaped Russia say we have 2 years before AI replaces us - and we're paying the corporations building it.
Daniil & David Liberman sold their first company to Snapchat. Now they're racing to build a decentralised alternative to OpenAI and Google before the window closes. They explain why centralised AI ends in a two-tier world - a small elite with access, and the rest of us as "moving parts" - and why the next 24 months decide which path we take.
In this episode:
→ Why you can't opt out of AI and stay competitive
→ The recursive loop: AI is now writing AI
→ Why the kill switch won't work
→ What they saw inside Russia in 2008 that's happening now with AI
→ The darkest scenario they almost didn't want to say out loud
