Everyone is asking the wrong question about AI. The headlines warn of superintelligent machines turning against humanity. The tech industry promises that smarter systems will align themselves. Both sides are wrong — and the real risk is one that neither has noticed.

The drift is not a bug to be fixed.

O capitalismo está morto. Bem-vindo ao tecnofeudalismoAs dinâmicas tradicionais do capitalismo não governam mais a economia. O que destituiu esse sistema foi o próprio capital e as mudanças tecnológicas aceleradas das últimas duas décadas, que, como um vírus, destruíram seu hospedeiro. Os dois pilares que sustentavam o capitalismo foram substituídos: os mercados deram lugar às plataformas digitais, que são verdadeiros feudos das grandes tecnologias, e o lucro foi substituído pela pura extração de rendas.

In Song for a Hard-Hit People, Beth Howard shares her story of growing up in Appalachian Kentucky—the economic struggles, trauma, and ever-present sexism along with the loving care of her close-knit rural community.
