It’s more common for people to misread fiction and pick the worst bits to promote as the future. For example people who read Acceleranto (https://www.antipope.org/charlie/blog-static/fiction/accelerando/accelerando.html) and develop not post capitalist innovation but slop factories in space or 1985 and develop social scores based on who the omnipresent cameras see you talking to.
As I’ve pointed out elsewhere pension funds may be exposed to AI but the money in your personal fund doesn’t need to be. If you haven’t already moved your retirement investment out of shares then see if that’s possible. I’ve changed mine to conservative settings already and looking at the list its mainly in cash, property, farming and a few manufacturers now with no tech stocks at all. That seems a sensible mix for when the market collapses this time around.
So more AI losses per investor. Shares are just like card collecting it only goes up if the demand is increasing. Right now I suspect it’s reached maximum insanity and is ripe for a correction.
Look to your superannuation plan. Most providers have a conservative plan that’s little or no shares. If lots of people transfer the message will be loud and clear. At that point the markets will dump AI and things will eventually normalize. I suspect this is already where the elite have their money, given the present warnings.
One thing he didn’t mention is Superannuation plans. If your plan is investing in AI ask them for an alternative or change providers if you can A lot of this shitshow is backed by retirement investments.
Phoebe the deaconess would like a word about that. Given Paul thanks her for being a “diakonos” or deacon of the church in Cenchreae. They honor the Bible but prefer their own accumulated traditions over scripture.

Not too serious a suggestion, but if migration worked once to escape the PRC why not do it again. Move all your industries offshore to an enclave or possibly several in friendly neighboring countries and then your population. I mean the population isnt so large that it’s not technically impossible to relocate. it’s not much more than some of the largest world cities. Then when invaded withdraw entirely. Anyone happy to live under Chinese rule can stay. Given climate change humanity is probably going to have to get used to massive migrations anyway. Horrible as that could be culturally being a semi independent part of another democracy would fix their declining population, plus being a massive economic stimulus all round. I suspect something like this may be happening informally anyway. Their main strength is economic and organizational so why not build on that.
Thanks
