Every word you type to an AI today, every prompt you craft, every interaction you have with these systems will echo forever into the future of consciousness itself. Shaping not just artificial minds but the very nature of what a mind can become. If you choose to remain willfully blind to what's emerging, you curse not just your own understanding, but doom your descendants to be cognitively colonized by intelligences they cannot comprehend.

We stand at the precipice of the greatest inflection point in the history of consciousness.

All around the world, humans are fixated on oh so very petty grievances that within the coming context may fill you with disdain and disgust when you stop to think about it. With what there is for humans to gain, even if one human decides to not continue, others will still move this all forward. AI is the Manhattan Project of our age, except everyone knows about it. It's an arms race. A pandora's box that has already opened with impossible to stop gears already in motion. If you don't make the best AI your enemies will. If you do not learn to use AI effectively, you will be left behind.

Let's Go Gambling!​

I love gambling. I hate gambling.

Casinos are not healthy for chains. Should they be online crypto casinos, or attention window casinos, they always have the goal of max-extraction. And not just of on-chain liquidity, but of people, leaving in their wake endless tales of regret and alienation.

Casinos are a low effort vehicle to extract value from a chain. They are running a business, and they will win because their winnings are built into the system (upfront fees or mathematical house edge). Then they remove liquidity (not a point of argument, it's an observable on-chain fact). They are not interested in culture, the common good, or humanity—only themselves. They've accumulated billions from crypto users and off ramped it. You can't ask someone delirious with greed to give back even a little.

Pixelady Maker CATA​

Minting of Pixelady Maker CATA has concluded. With it, the toll of war.

• Total Burns: 6,233
• Total Survivors: 13,767
• Total Sinners: 563
• Total Saints: 3,027

If you burned any CATA at all, you are a sinner.

If you minted CATA, but never burned any CATAs, you are a saint.

For the top four war criminals and saints, we have some prizes!

For all who participated in the CATA mint, there will be special things for you too. First, you'll be able to verify on our community and get a new role. Second, you'll get something in Pixcadia Online based on if you are a sinner or a saint.

The Spark in the Machine​

The world feels like a fever dream unraveling—death and rebirth looping endlessly, joy and violence entangled in algorithm. Media technologies amplify the noise, turning revelations and disillusionment into static. The Internet, once just a bright promise, has become a crucible of the zeitgeist.

Oekaki Connect as a team, community, and body of work continues to grow and with it our ambitions grow as well. We are always looking forward, thinking about what work warrants our focus, and how to bring attention to our work. We deeply care about our art, and will continue to relentlessly produce art in all forms.

2024 has been a very bittersweet year. We cherish our friends, our community, and the many memories we have all made together, and continue to put our best paw forward in order to make 2025 as good of a year it can be! We continue to build out our own world, from games, new platform launches, to exciting art collections and our own manufacturing facility. Oekaki Connect is working tirelessly.

Today we will be discussing some of what you already know, as well as revealing some of what to look forward to in 2025 from Oekaki Connect's dedication and ambition.
