George Gilder on COVID Panic, Bitcoin Design Flaws, Why AI Isn’t 'I,' and More
Play • 56 min

George Gilder was Reagan’s favorite living source of quotes about the economy. He was also the most prescient visionary about the microchip, then the internet, and (now) blockchain. He explains why the global COVID shutdown in the name of “science” was unscientific, why artificial Intelligence will not replace the human mind, why blockchain is a truth system which will replace the Google model of the world, and why you should be attending the www.cosm.technology conference to understand what’s coming next. 

Recorded at the FreedomFest 2021 conference in Rapid City South Dakota. http://2021.freedomfest.com/
