The real fear around AI isn’t “tech” it’s:

AUTONOMY 

people are fine with AI being their assistant: booking flights, managing calendars, doing the tasks they dont want to

but the fear creeps in when we talk about “autonomous agents”

autonomous AI means giving agents wallets, decision making abilities, and economic power, bassicslly letting software decide how to spend and allocate resources

it’s a step beyond P2P where there’s no playbook. it’s a full on new territory.

bitcoin introduced P2P money. AI introduces the autonomous economy which is a new class of creators, thinkers, and those creators will define what that even means

so the fear isnt that AI will destroy us, it’s that it will redefine WHO’S in power

because, he who controls the code, controls the gold
