Yesterday, the co-organizer of Bitcoin FilmFest, Pierre Corbin, alongside co-developer Hugo Ferrer, unveiled "Talk2Satoshi." This AI chatbot aims to answer Bitcoin and economics-related queries as if they were from Satoshi Nakamoto himself.
The core of this model is ChatGPT, created by OpenAI, which has been trained on a selective dataset. This includes public emails and forum posts from Nakamoto, as well as inputs from various sources such as Saifedean Ammous' The Bitcoin Standard, Jeff Booth's The Price of Tomorrow, and Pierre Corbin's film, The Great Reset and the Rise of Bitcoin. More source materials are set to be added soon.
While there's certainly room for improvement, Corbin sees the potential this bot holds in the field of education.
Interestingly, when probed about Ordinals, the bot maintained that #Bitcoin "is not meant to be a platform for storing or transmitting images or other types of data."
True to Nakamoto's mysterious persona, the AI bot stays reticent about its actual identity, typically responding with:
"My real name is not important. What is important is the decentralization of power that Bitcoin represents and the potential it has to revolutionize financial systems."
Accessing the bot at http://talk2satoshi.com/ can be a bit hit-or-miss as the site doesn't always load correctly. This might be due to the high traffic or simply because it's a new service. Nevertheless, this initiative by Pierre is promising and it's exciting to see how it evolves to educate people on the significance of sound money and censorship-resistant protocols.
