Riot Platforms Bitcoin "Miner" had a "Public" Town Hall Today in Navarro County

We were NOT allowed to take photos or live stream the event, and we were only allowed one question at the Q&A session.

Pretty sure there was a woman hired specifically to "handle" me. I kept asking her who she was with & she was really dodgey. All I could get our of her was she was "a guest of the venue."

SOOOOOO many lies it was hard keeping track, but some highlights from the master of misinformation, "Bitcoin Pierre" Rochard:

Riot Platforms is "extremely transparent" This is the same company that sued the Texas Attorney General to stop the city of Corsicana from fulfilling our records requests and they SUED THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT TO keep their energy consumption a secret.

Through a grassroots call-to-action campaign, we prevented Riot Platforms from getting property tax abatements in Navarro county... so far. During this "public" town hall, SEVERAL times, speakers from Riot Platforms pretty much threatened to not hire any more locals and stop expanding the Corsicana site if they didn't get the tax abatements they were promised by our economic development director. https://www.dlnews.com/articles/people-culture/bitcoin-miners-megadeal-stumbles-as-texans-sour-on-industry/

This mf used the word "grassroots" to describe Riot ( the 1st or 2nd largest cryptomining company in the world) & insinuated our actual grassroots organization (Texas Coalition Against Cryptomining) is astroturfed. 😒

Our group is SPECIFICALLY non-partisan. We DO NOT DIVIDE OURSELVES WITH POLITICS, but at the "public" town hall, they made a point to say that Trump is pro-crypto & that our anti crypto advocacy is a "leftist agenda" driven by Elizabeth Warren & Joe Biden.

Pierre also made the usual gold-bug/ bitcon maxi talking points about the scarcity of bitcon. When he said that bitcon is transparent software and the FED is like secret, proprietary software, I laughed out loud.

Big bad gvnmt regulates money, but the "the people" regulates bitcon.

They said that 100% of the LARGEST CRYPTO "MINE" IN THE WORLD is going to be immersion-cooled. We absolutely do not believe this and Amy Castor & David Gerard wrote about it here: https://amycastor.com/2024/03/04/bitcoin-mining-riot-platforms-10-k-is-full-of-tentacles/

Texas is literally the energy capitol of the world & we are now the leader in renewable energy, YET OUR BILLS HAVE BEEN INCREASING SINCE CRYPTO CAME. Bitcoin Pierre explained this away as inflation.

More & more people are using bitcon- LIE

Bitcoin mining is actually lowering our energy bills (and the sky is green, the ocean is purple, and gravity isn't real).

"99%" of the time, they're using "excess" energy, only 1% of the time, they're getting paid to shut down by ERCOT. 👆👆OUTRIGHT LIE. Riot is already getting paid to shoot down in May, and that'll continue until SEPTEMBER.

Riot Platforms, getting .025 cents a kilowatt hour, is actually OVERPAYING because the Texas grid sometimes runs at negative pricing due to green energy.

Bitcoin Pierre stated that articles talking about cryptominer increasing pur bills are based on bad, opaque data & modeling. WE. DON'T. HAVE. GOOD. DATA. BECAUSE. THEY. REFUSE. TO. BE. TRANSPARENT. Researchers have to make best guesses based on current industry standards.

Instead he recommended a "study" by Texas A&M, who have a history of doing "Research" for the worst industries on the planet.

They've spent about $70k on whitewashing their reputation around town via donations to various charities & organizations.

They JUST went live with 100MW of Phase one & there is a woman suffering from light pollution.

There was a woman who spoke and said she could hear the miners, THEY GASLIT HER & said it couldn't be the ASICS because they're immersing cooled & only throwing off 60 decibels of noise. (LOW-FREQUENCY NOISE TRAVELS, Y'ALL!)

And there was a man who's land was taken via eminent domain to pay a 12" water pipe to the bitcoin "mine."

They have 8k ASICS, 100% immersion-cooled live keys rn.

They have a "right to water."

They started late, ended early, and didn't let everyone ask questions. They lied for hours straight.

I've said for two years that "anger is a truly renewable energy" & after this little farce, I'm more energized than ever.


Why does this happen in CrewAI only on local LLMs?

I am running the example crew that is created with the command crewai create newscrew, so, nothing too creative or experimental. When I run the query that comes installed in teh example, AI LLMs, It's work fine on OpenAI and on Ollama (both phi3 and llama3), but if I change the query to Bitcoin news, it still runs fine on OpenAI, but locally, I get a bunch of

Action: Research recent Bitcoin news post May 21st, 2023

Action Input: {
    "task": "Research",
    "context": "Gather information about significant developments in the Bitcoin industry from May 21st, 2023 to May 21st, 2024. This includes news articles, reports, and credible sources that provide insights into key events and their impacts on market dynamics, investor sentiment, and regulatory environment.",
    "co-worker": "Bitcoin News Senior Data Researcher"
} 

Action 'Research recent Bitcoin news post May 21st, 2023' don't exist, these are the only available Actions:
 Delegate work to co-worker: Delegate work to co-worker(task: str, context: str, coworker: Optional[str] = None, **kwargs) - Delegate a specific task to one of the following co-workers: [Bitcoin News Senior Data Researcher
]
The input to this tool should be the co-worker, the task you want them to do, and ALL necessary context to execute the task, they know nothing about the task, so share absolute everything you know, don't reference things but instead explain them.
Ask question to co-worker: Ask question to co-worker(question: str, context: str, coworker: Optional[str] = None, **kwargs) - Ask a specific question to one of the following co-workers: [Bitcoin News Senior Data Researcher
]
The input to this tool should be the co-worker, the question you have for them, and ALL necessary context to ask the question properly, they know nothing about the question, so share absolute everything you know, don't reference things but instead explain them.

The problems seem to be related to the answers CrewAi is getting back from the requests. For example...

Thought: To provide an in-depth analysis of each event mentioned in the news headlines, I will gather information from various sources such as financial reports, expert opinions, and regulatory documents to ensure a comprehensive understanding of their implications on cryptocurrency regulations and global finance.

Action: Search
Action Input: "IMF report on Bitcoin impact" 

Action 'Search' don't exist, these are the only available Actions:

Some 'thoughts' in particulr trigger a Action to call a non-existane co-worker that not defined anywhere (and allow_delegation=False).

Is there any way to stop this? Like, can it just look for co-workers that are defined as existing? Or am I not understanding the issue?

BTW, these errors do not occur when I switch to OpenAI (gpt4)... so, does this suggest the problem is in LLMs?
