MIT mathematically proved that AI will destroy the democracy.

A Nobel-winning MIT economist published a terrifying paper called "Automation and Repression"

As AI and automation replace human labor, wealth concentrates heavily in the hands of a tiny group of capital owners. Inequality skyrockets.

When inequality hits a critical mass, workers realize they are being crushed and the threat of a popular revolt spikes.

Faced with that threat, the ruling elite are forced to make a choice.

They can redistribute the wealth through taxes, or they can use force to keep people down.

The paper mathematically proves a dark reality: there is a direct, inescapable link between automation and political repression.

The more capital accumulates through AI, the more the elite prefer repression over redistribution.

Why? Because sharing the wealth cuts into their power. Funding a police state protects it.

It gets worse.

The authors modeled what happens when an economy starts inside a clean, stable democracy.

As automation advances and capital concentrates at the top, the math shows that the elite eventually find democracy to be a liability.

They stop supporting democratic systems. They back a coup. They install a repressive system just to protect their automated wealth.

Nobody is voting to end democracy.

The technology’s economic incentives just make authoritarian control the logical next step for survival.

Never base your identity on politics—the world will eventually change, but you will struggle to.

[Mark Manson @Markmanson]

Validation is approval from others. Self-esteem is approval from yourself.

Never sacrifice your self-esteem to gain validation.

Validation is easily regained once lost. Self-esteem is not.

Expertise makes something complex appear simple and intelligible. Bullshit makes something simple appear unnecessarily complex and unintelligible.

Expertise creates value for people who don’t know better. Bullshit extracts value from people who don’t know better.

If you are able to think then you are able to make different choices. If you are able to make different choices, you are able to improve. If you are able to improve, with enough time, you are able to overcome anything.

El fútbol es un entretenimiento y me encanta, pero no lo relaciono con ningún patriotismo o nacionalismo, no nos hace ni mejores o peores personas. Aunque accepto que la derrota tocó fibras personales, al final el fútbol puede lo más importante de lo menos importante

(3) La vacuna contra el covid-19 es nuestro cinturón de seguridad en la pandemia, vacunarse es fundamental.

[Esteban @esurena]

(2) Nadie en su sano juicio piensa que es mejor no usar el cinturón porque en un accidente igual hay posibilidades de morir o sufrir graves secuelas, o que el cinturón pueda dejarnos atrapados porque sabemos que la seguridad que nos da demostraba es más grande que los riesgos.

(1) Cuando hay un accidente de tránsito grave, las posibilidades de sufrir una herida grave o morir están bastante latentes; y cuando viajamos en automóvil nos ponemos el cinturón para minimizar las posibilidades de que esto ocurra.
