Episode notes
Inefficient IP Market
- Current IP management is costly, opaque, and inefficient, benefiting only large players.
- A decentralized, transparent, and programmable IP market is needed, especially with the rise of AI-generated content.
IP's Importance in the AI Era
- High-quality data is crucial for AI, but the market for training data is inefficient, lacking clear ownership and pricing.
- IP, though technical, is more tangible than stocks; we interact with it daily through content consumption.
Blockchain for IP
- While standardization improves traditional systems like SWIFT, blockchain offers a superior solution for IP.
- A blockchain-based IP market provides unstoppable programmability, instant settlement, and global accessibility.
