What will the robots do when the luddites and Luddism return with a vengeance? After all, one One can plausibly predict the nigh total fracturing of American society, occasioned by the revolt of those seeking work for the first time and those no long employed in life sustaining jobs. With no prospect of ever working again. No universal basic income will ever suffice to meet the needs of America’s unemployed.
Which ever way one spins it, AI and robotisation are unquestionably designed to serve the interests of capital, not labour. But therein lies the contradiction of modern capitalism: unlimited productivity with no one who can afford the goods and services produced by robots.
This is the dilemma that gave birth to the WEF. What are we, the oligarchs who de facto rule the world (forget democracy, that’s going, if not gone) to do about the myriad of unemployed. And how can we suppress the social upheaval occasioned by AI and robotisation?
Their solutions to these two problems are to be found in the WEF’s great reset, which essentially boils down to culling the vast global majority of “useless eaters” through starvation and deliberately uncured disease, and suppressing the discontent of those who remain by concentrating global power in the hands of a one-world-government, thereby uniting a global oligarchy.
In short, we should be wary of celebrating the advent of AI and robotisation.
Great summary - and conclusions!
