I appreciate this message from @barmstrong

sometimes i get very sad that i spent the last four years of my life full time in crypto. i read papers from other tech sectors all the time—one friend is working on a soft magnets start up, another stayed up all night with me talking about lithography machines

a meta engineer…

@howdymerry Every tech field is a grind! Doing breakthrough work is difficult no matter which field. That’s what makes it worth doing.

You could easily get disillusioned in any of these fields…
- making a new drug is difficult with failure rates in clinical trials
- AI is just a csv file…

It’s a good message but OP is still right. Imo if you love tech and are not working on something heavily AI related in 2025 you are falling behind on the most exciting and important technical advancement of humankind so far.

AI feels so much better and easier than crypto but you could be destroying humanity.
