Inside this short:
I asked if Elon was a cybernetic organism from the future — his answer was classic alien feces!
40 sec short below.
The full 90-sec cut (with the Bitcoin vs blockchains answer) also below

A few of you know the kind of “viral” moments I’m accused of from Code Conference, four years ago today.
Perhaps it was making Elon laugh.
Perhaps it was making the SEC Chair Gary Gensler squirm after I noted his answer to a basic blockchain question was, well, “patently false”.
Despite being young and dumb now, I was younger and even dumber back then.
Today I'd like to think I wouldn't be so frustrated by a reply that used the same empty vessels of words (bull feces) he used in the lexical cosplay the SEC playfully called “regulatory guidance” on crypto.
And that’s a lie.
Also, to respond to rumours like Elon did my question:
I can neither confirm nor deny that a certain All-Sinner ever tried to bully my team (I was the founding Head of Research at Prof G Media and very protective of the brilliant talent we recruited).
I can also neither confirm nor deny rumours that he got teary-eyed facing me IRL at the famed poker game Kara’s brother invited us to.
i absolutely resent everything this guy is and stands for @Jason

Anyway, Elon clip here.
Original IG post from the day here.
Elon’s full 90 sec answer to the bitcoin / blockchain qn here.
PS if you want to hear from us on a topic like some of you investors have recently, ping me. Got research and data for daze…
PPS One of the OG’s that worked on the MIT Research quoted in my AI minister piece turned out to be a subscriber and reached out, and it made me take this publication thing even less seriously while seriously making my day.
Something’s happening here… and it’s not just a terrible redesign.
