Jumping off a post on here I saw yesterday, I also listened to "Last Man in Davos" by TrueAnon, and I gotta say -
Wow, did that make me depressed. Why aren't more people talking about it? I feel like the Nick Landian techno-capital singularity nightmare is just around the corner, and I feel like no one is gonna stop it.
I do think that as time goes on, and it becomes more well known, that many may start to talk about it. But for real, what do you guys think?
Their focus on everything being catalogued was a little over the top. But the main premise of you own nothing and your job is a few years away from being roboted isn’t far off from reality now.
Yeah, agreed. Also you don't need to catalogue everything to turn everything into tradable commodities....
This was my biggest problem with it. Anyone who's read an in depth dissection of Enron for example knows that you don't have to even attempt to have a perfect AI or even basic quantifiable understanding of something in order to commodity and trade futures on it for example.
It's about a willingness and incentive to believe.
