AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

And so I think people are recognizing that.

that one of their few channels of leverage when you lose everything else is to do violence.

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

And so that's why I think that even if I am a totally self-interested capitalist who doesn't care about people at all, I would be pretty concerned about making sure that not too many people end up unemployed and disempowered because I do not want to face these violent threats from people who have been deprived of every other channel for leverage except for violence.

AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

Yeah, I mean, I don't think it's too early to plan for scenarios, right?

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

Like, I don't think that we have to institute an UBI right now.

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

Like, I would not support that.

Bankless

I mean, I think these are extreme people, right?

Bankless

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

Again, I do not endorse violence.

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

I think this is super bad.

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

It's not that many people, but you can see how one would arrive at that.

And Marc Andreessen is investing in lots of companies whose value proposition is to replace workers.

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

So I know that Marc Andreessen is tweeting different things.

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

But if you look at his portfolio of companies, many of them have a core value proposition of replacing workers.

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

Right.

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

And so, like, I see why people would be skeptical of Marc Andreessen's public statements.

Like, it's like, I don't know what Dario's P. Doom is, right?
