The Convergence of Bitcoin and AI - Korok Ray (Ep #173)

Bitcoin and AI are two of the most disruptive technologies of our time, but how do they intersect? In this episode, Korok Ray, economist and professor at Texas A&M, explores the emerging relationship between Bitcoin and AI. We discuss how AI-powered agents could reshape economic transactions, why Bitcoin is uniquely suited for autonomous payments and the risks of Bitcoin being left behind in the AI revolution. Korok shares insights from his time in the White House during the 2008 financial crisis, his Bitcoin research, and his vision for a future where AI and Bitcoin converge.
