He explores how AI enhances our intelligence, but it's our ability to coordinate that gives humans their true evolutionary advantage.\n#AI #TechPhilosophy #Innovation #EigenLayer #NEARAI #HumanEvolution #Philosophy #Coordination #HumanEvolution #ShuramSpeaks #CollaborativeIntelligence #CryptoInsights #MindsetShift #PhilosophicalDiscussion #Brainstorming","channel_name":"NEAR Protocol","published_at":"2024-10-25T00:00:00.000Z","thumbnail_url":"https://img.youtube.com/vi/BgXtspBpHNs/hqdefault.jpg","transcript_text":"but you know I I mentioned the kind of technical reason why I got into crypto but also I think that there was a similar kind of philosophical reason which is that you know I used to have this mantal model that like the most important thing people do is you know we're intelligent and we innovate so Innovation being the highest value so you can think of like AI as giving superpowers to our intelligence or innovation abilities and I kind of flipped from that model to a different model which is is that yes you know you have Innovation and intelligence but the the defining evolutionary advantage of humans is our ability to coordinate flexibly and so accelerating coordination is a different value and maybe even more fundamental than accelerating Innovation or intelligence","transcript_synced_at":"2026-11-03T05:28:26.510Z","segments":[{"start_seconds":0,"text":"but you know I I mentioned the kind of technical reason why I got into crypto but also I think that there was a similar kind of philosophical reason","url":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BgXtspBpHNs&t=0s"},{"start_seconds":7,"text":"which is that you know I used to have this mantal model that like the most important thing people do is you know","url":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BgXtspBpHNs&t=7s"},{"start_seconds":16,"text":"we're intelligent and we innovate so Innovation being the highest value so you can think of like AI as giving superpowers to our intelligence or","url":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BgXtspBpHNs&t=16s"},{"start_seconds":24,"text":"innovation abilities and I kind of flipped from that model to a different model which is is that yes you know you have Innovation","url":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BgXtspBpHNs&t=24s"},{"start_seconds":32,"text":"and intelligence but the the defining evolutionary advantage of humans is our ability to","url":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BgXtspBpHNs&t=32s"},{"start_seconds":39,"text":"coordinate flexibly and so accelerating coordination is a different value and maybe even more fundamental than","url":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BgXtspBpHNs&t=39s"},{"start_seconds":47,"text":"accelerating Innovation or intelligence","url":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BgXtspBpHNs&t=47s"}],"youtube_url":"https://youtube.com/watch?v=BgXtspBpHNs","url":"https://near-pedia.xyz/videos/BgXtspBpHNs"}
