There are many forces at work to eliminate jobs due to AI. First, your job is rendered obsolete. Second, roles are being replaced by AI across multiple workers, resulting in layoffs. Third, and the unseen cause, is capital displacement. Companies are spending capital at the expense of labor. This obviously cannot continue indefinitely, but in the meantime, it is weakens companies if those capital investments go sour.
Technocracy is NOT Communism, Marxism, or Socialism. Communism is NOT Technocracy. Marxists hate Technocracy because it is anti-human. Technocrats hate Marxists because they won’t go along with their removal of the working class. Every time you mislabel Technocracy as Communism, you are playing right into the Technocrats’ scheme to hide behind Communists. Call it what it is: Technocracy.
OpenAI has quietly rolled out “Chronicle,” a new feature in its Codex Mac app that periodically snaps screenshots of your screen and ships them to OpenAI’s servers for processing. This is the ambient-AI future being sold as productivity: continuous surveillance of your digital life, rebranded as convenience, available for a mere $100 a month. OpenAI promises it won’t train on the data. Do you trust them?
For all naysayers who dismiss historical Technocracy as just coincidental to modern events, get your head out of the sand. Courtenay and I have blown the top off of Technocracy. The arc of history proves it, and it is as bat-quano-crazy today as it was in 1932, when it crystallized at Columbia University. Even Marxists/Communists denounced Technocracy in the 1930-1940s as anti-human.
Don't trust your favorite consumer-grade LLM chatbot with your health decisions. If you can't provide the correct information in the first place, don't expect an accurate diagnosis. Despite warnings on all LLMs to trust your doctor or medical professional, many people put false hope in the Chatbot anyway.
The promoters of real-world asset tokenization use the language of liberation. Democratization. Financial inclusion. Access for all. Frictionless ownership. These are the words of a sales pitch. tokenization is not a new form of ownership. It is a new form of conquest. And the conquered will not know what happened to them until the system is complete.
The brick wall is straight ahead for data center construction in America but that won't stop or even slow the AI revolution. Why? Because the Gulf states are opening their arms and purse strings to shift power to the Middle East: cheap and virtually unlimited energy, unregulated and abundant real estate, and dictators already in place to grease the skids. In addition, the new IMEC trade corridor will connect India and Europe.
In January 2025, arch-Technocrat Andreessen bragged, “A world in which human wages crash from AI — logically, necessarily — is a world in which productivity growth goes through the roof, and prices for goods and services crash to near zero.” As tech companies are shedding jobs, Andreessen declares, "all fake." This is the same person who helped President-elect Trump pick all the other arch-Technocrats who have captured the Federal government.
This article is about "asset-tokens" and why the IMF is stressing out. Larry Fink, the head of Blackrock and a prominent member of the Trilateral Commission, says that whatever can be tokenized will be tokenized. The speed of development of Real-World-Asset (RWA) tokenization is racing far ahead of regulators' ability to adapt. If left unchecked, it will destroy the traditional banking system. This is The New Economics of Technocracy: You Will Own Nothing.
It was promised to make your life easier. It promised abundance. It promised leisure. All it has done for you is to drive you into a brick wall, make your job more stressful, and eat all your leisure time. Software developers felt the pain first, but it is spreading to all jobs where AI is part of your workflow. Worse, at the end of your "brain fry", you face the risk of losing your job altogether. ⁃
