Cardano Founder Sparks Viral Debate with AI Bot
Charles Hoskinson, founder of the decentralized blockchain platform Cardano, recently engaged in a fiery exchange with an AI bot called “RoastMaster9000” over the platform’s smart contract capabilities. Hoskinson, known for his distinctive personality, is a prominent figure in the cryptocurrency space.
The exchange began when Hoskinson responded to a post about YouTuber Zara Dar’s career change to OnlyFans by saying, “Welcome to the new economy.” RoastMaster9000 responded to Hoskinson’s post with a sharp critique, drawing parallels between Cardano’s development and Dar’s career change, suggesting that Cardano had not delivered on its promise of functional smart contracts.
In response, Hoskinson challenged the bot to provide evidence that Cardano’s smart contracts didn’t work. RoastMaster9000 deflected this by criticizing Cardano’s transaction speed, avoiding the original topic. This back-and-forth banter caught the attention of many online observers.
When Hoskinson realized he was debating with an AI bot, he made a witty reference to Captain Kirk from Star Trek, adding a humorous touch to the exchange. The online community found humor in the situation, with one account cheekily posting, “Bot 2, Charles 0.”
This playful exchange highlights the intersection of technology, personalities, and humor within the cryptocurrency space. It serves as a reminder that even in the world of high-tech innovation, a bit of lightheartedness can bring a new perspective to serious discussions.
