I'm wondering what the heck will pay the bills on all that 'AI' hardware that's being put out there. So far the number of ideas that sound like an episode of some tech-horror show far outweigh the ones that sound like a Star Trek utopia.

They'll kill off whatever percentage of the working class they don't need like they did in WW2 during the last great depression, although I'd argue they have more efficient methods of purging the working class now. They'll make everyone so poor they beg to fight in a war, like in the 20s-30s.

  • Russia is already doing this, USA is gearing up for a war with Iran but can't see the USA wanting the PR of losing many soldiers, they could just increase the forces so basically every working class person is low paid potential cannon fodder.
