    SBF spent months lobbying to kill DeFi, because he knew that transparent autonomous protocols were a threat to “trust me assets are fine” finance.

    I became a DeFi founder in order to create a more transparent, autonomous, and safer financial system. Watching the implosion of UST, Celsius, 3AC, and (hopefully not) more, all of which are opaque and trust-based, reaffirms the need for *Decentralized Finance* more than ever.

    This is actually quite sad. ChatGPT saved my life earlier this year by providing health advice that was otherwise not available to me in real-time, and as AI continues to improve, the opportunity to save lives does too. Our over-litigious society leads to bad outcomes.
    ChatGPT will no longer give health or legal advice 👀
    Readers added context
    ChatGPT has not stopped giving legal and medical advice. It will provide legal and medical information that comes with a disclaimer and is not technically professional “advice”, which is very similar to how it worked before. artificiallawyer.com/2025/11/03/ope…
