You say the economy will always need people because they are the demand. But who buys AI systems? Other companies. Who buys weapons? Governments. Who buys logistics automation? Corporations.

The demand isn’t from people. It’s from systems that want to eliminate people.

This isn’t hyperbole. It’s the trend.

We published an episode on this — not to claim we have all the answers, but to show it’s more complex than ‘people will always be needed’.

If you’ve listened and still disagree, I’d love to hear your counterpoints. Maybe the real oversimplification is believing we already know how this story ends — before the data is even in.

Exactly. Since the end of the gold standard, the economy hasn’t been about production — it’s been about valuation.

70 years ago, companies were built to make things: cars, fridges, tools. Today, they’re built to inflate stock prices.

The real product isn’t goods. It’s debt, speculation, planned obsolescence.

And now, AI isn’t replacing workers to make things better. It’s replacing them to cut costs — while real needs go unmet.

This isn’t progress. It’s the slow collapse of a system that forgot its purpose.

This isn’t just ChatGPT vs. HR. It’s a system where automation replaces human labor at every level — from hiring to production.

I’ve just published an episode on how AI, robotics, and exponential change aren’t just transforming jobs — but possibly the entire future of the economy.

We’re in a transitional phase. The next few years are crucial.

So if you’re asking ‘Will AI take your job?’, the deeper question is: What happens when the economy no longer needs people?

When a documentary about GPU scarcity is taken down by a financial news giant, it’s not about copyright. It’s about who controls the narrative on scarcity, speculation, and power. The black market isn’t the problem. The system that created it is. And the real story is always the one they don’t want you to see.
