AI could bring us a ZOMBIE ECONOMY

It really will be bigger than the Internet itself ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ Dead Internet. Dead Economy. Dead Society. Welcome to the world of the living dead... brought to you by AI. Let me explain about this... I recently was talking to someone about the potential of AI - and this someone would know what he's talking about. He's on the ground floor of this industry. Here's what's coming - bots that could promote products on social media, bots ruthlessly calculating odds for gambling, bots waging an eternal struggle about getting to the top of search engine results. Just for a start. It reminds me of the "Dead Internet" theory. This holds that the Internet is no longer about people communicating, but bots, with content being automatically generated and driven by algorithms rather than any authentic human feeling. That may seem pretty grim. (Or pretty hilarious, if you picture people thinking they are having passionate arguments on Twitter when actually they are just posting all caps declarations at an uncaring bot.) But it's going to get way more intense. What happens when AI does the bulk of marketing, or artistic design, or even skilled labor like legal research or commodities trading? It's not that competition will go away - but competition will just be about a brute force contest of people pitting AIs against each other. It feels to me like something essential about humanity will be lost with this. But you can't stop progress - at least not at scale. We are all going to have to adjust to the technological revolution taking place. I am annoyed by sweeping declarations and hyperbolic claims. So I say this not with any sense of triumph or excitement, but from grim foreboding and rooted in fact and expert knowledge. This is going to be bigger than the Internet itself. And it is going to raise some fundamental questions about what it means to be human. It would be the height of naivete to think the trading world won't be subject to this revolution along with everything else. Keep Moving, Corey Snyder Publisher, Rogue Investing Though the economy is about to radically change, there will always be a place for critical raw materials. As I predicted in [this interview]( oil is only going to become more important in the years to come. Remember, you can have whatever fancy robotics, software, tools, and weapons you want - but it means nothing if you don't have power. This is a roadmap to the years ahead. Don't ignore it.

That's a record low for a vice president in the history of the poll. - Putin Claims Rebellion Would Have Been Crushed - Suddenly appearing vulnerable, Russian president Vladimir Putin tried to express confidence when discussing the recent coup attempt by the paramilitary Wagner Group. He thanked the mercenaries who accepted a compromise deal, telling them that they now had the choice of signing with the Russian Ministry of Defense. However, he also said that the rebellion would have been crushed anyway, but expressed gratitude there was no civil war. "They wanted Russian soldiers to kill each other, to kill military personnel and civilians, so that in the end Russia would lose, and our society would split, choke in blood civil strife," he said.
