AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

And isn't it fantastic that all of these more labor-intensive, boring types of jobs get filled and we'll just replace all of that.

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

As long as humans are around, we'll just replace all of that with other games that we play, like status types of games.

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

And so let's zone in.

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

What are your beliefs on the unemployment?

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

Well, yeah, it's kind of like the idea to flesh that out a bit more and add to that, David.

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

It's like the idea that capital no longer needs labor to function.

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

Like for all of its history, capital has had to hire labor in order to get jobs done, get work done.

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

And now it has AI tokens to substitute for human labor.

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

So it doesn't need labor any longer.

There's like books like, or there's an essay called The Intelligence Curse.

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

We had the authors on.

Also, Garrison Lovely's coming up with a book called Obsolete, I think, which, you know, delves into this thesis.

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

Basically, labor becomes obsolete in this world.

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

Wait, 100 years in the future, what happens?

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

Yeah, I mean, that's the argument of the intelligence curse, basically, that it breaks the social contract between labor and capital and governments and its citizens.

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

And so a new social contract has to be created.

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

Okay, but...

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

For sure.

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

But like, okay, but doesn't it seem a little early for that?
