## Memes - a Political Future?

https://dark.fi/insights/memetic-warfare.html

	"DarkFi and lunarpunk are an attempt to introduce new, privacy-promoting
         viruses into the memeplex. Privacy, we are told, is losing the meme
         war.1 What follows is an analysis of the loser tendencies contained
         within the privacy memeplex and suggestions on how to overcome them."

Rachel Rose O'Leary (@lunar_mining) is the expert in this field and will tell us more
about this.

Thanks for coming!

## Memes - a Technical Future?

http://ggml.ai/

	"ggml is a tensor library for machine learning to enable large models
         and high performance on commodity hardware. It is used by llama.cpp
         and whisper.cpp"

20h will show us how Bitreich is fascilitating this for a new meme growth.

## Lets go.

Have fun!
