5 claims checked on air: 1 context 1 supported 3 unverified
"Dogecoin is actually up as of right now 23% over the last month and Bitcoin is up 22." (said at 0:08:42)
No published record matching the claim that Dogecoin gained 23% while Bitcoin gained 22% over the preceding month was located; this does not prove the claim false.
"Roman is a professor at a University of Louisville. He coined the term AI safety." (said at 0:22:52)
Roman Yampolskiy is indeed a professor of computer science and engineering at the University of Louisville. However, regarding the terminology, Yampolskiy specifically introduced and formalized the term "Artificial Intelligence Safety Engineering" (AI Safety Engineering) in a 2012/2013 paper defining safety protocols and engineering guidelines for AI systems, rather than originating the broader concept or phrase "AI safety" in isolation.

"Yampolskiy notes in the preface that ‘in the domain of artificial intelligence safety engineering, hundreds of papers have been published on different proposals geared at the creation of a safe machine, yet nothing else has been published on how to design a malevolent machine … the availability of such information would be of great value’" (abstract, results, passage verified)openalexfull study (doi)
"Nvidia is now doing more than a billion dollars of revenue per day. I just want to let everyone think about that for a second. $1 billion per day in revenue." (said at 0:27:39)
No published record matching the claim that Nvidia generates more than $1 billion in revenue per day was located; this does not prove the claim false.
"Bitcoin and gold correlation is the highest it's ever been." (said at 0:42:20)
No published record matching the claim that the correlation between Bitcoin and gold is at its highest level ever was located; this does not prove the claim false.
"It is a different thing today, right? It's not GPU-based, it's more proof-of-stake, all that" (said at 0:58:15)
Ethereum transitioned its consensus mechanism from Proof of Work (which relied on GPU-based mining) to Proof of Stake during an upgrade known as 'The Merge' in September 2022. This shift eliminated the requirement for energy-intensive GPU mining and moved the network to validator staking for block validation.
"The transition of ETH from proof of work (PoW) to proof of stake (PoS) is a step toward reducing the carbon footprint of the NFT sector." (abstract, passage verified)openalexfull study (doi)
"To deliver effective scaling solutions, Ethereum achieved a significant protocol improvement, including a change in the consensus mechanism towards Proof of Stake. This improvement greatly reduced the hardware requirements to run a node, leading to significant sustainability benefits with a lower network energy consumption."
