Bushido, Bitcoin, Warrior Culture, Chivalry, Feudalism, Collectivism, Artificial Intelligence, Transhumanism, Warfare.

Timothy Allen talks with Aleks Svetski.

Todays guest will be well known to the Bitcoiners amongst you. Aleks is an entrepreneur and the co-author of the 'Uncommunist Manifesto' with Mark Moss, also, well known for the “Wake Up Podcast’. I caught up with him at BTC Prague and we talked about a number of relatively unusual things.  I’ll list a few of them here…. The Bushido of Bitcoin, chivalry, collectivism, A.I., transhumanism, stochastic parrots, augmented Samaurais.. and I'll let you decide whether or not you agree with Aleks’s sentiment that “Feudalism was peak civilisation”. Enjoy the conversation.
