It's not. It's very fast, especially for gaming. Playing POE 2 with GPT2 or a recent wine version at max setting on 60+ FPS on those days. On a M3 MAX.
Conceptually I can get behind, but as it's been said I join the belief that Carmack is smart enough to know we're probably not even on the right track to create a true form of self awareness that could end the world.
How is it working? Who will host the terabytes of content is this really take off? Who will pay for it? Sure it’s easy to host a blockchain on a number of computers when it’s small, but if it really become THE source of truth, then you need actual $$$$$ to keep it alive.
From what I understand it’s still very expensive to store anything more than a few kb on the Blockhain as it’s distrbuted. So you still need a platform that will store the actual content and reference the transaction. In the end, it’s like web2 to me, if you kill the host / platform, you still have the blockchain but you lost the content.
I wish people would sponsor me for my open source SwiftUI applications: https://github.com/sponsors/Dimillian/
Because 4500 stars is nice but sponsoring is good too :D
But I have a day job so it's fine I guess.
