While there are many factors that contributed to the rise of Donald Trump, one of in not the primary catalysts was an the gutting of the industrial midwest from bad trade deals and automation. The current regime has went all in on letting the tech bros run wild with no oversight. What exactly do people think is gonna happen if the tech bros accomplish their goals and can successfully put 50-100 million or more people out of work with no viable path to even mantain current standard of living much less progress while an even bigger amount of wealth and resources go to the very top? I will tell you it will fuel a real populist uprising and calls for nationalization of ai. Let unemployment hit great depression level numbers (or worse) and youll be setting the stage for another cult of personality to rise in american poltics who will be able win and gain power purely off promises to reign in ai and disrupting the gains from in an a more collective way. submitted by /u/personofinterest1986
