This implies a distinction between "our" (i.e., humans) and "the computers." Can you explain what distinction you meant if it wasn't AI? After all, everything computers do outside AI is done pursuant to knowable, describable human control, no different from pressing keys on a keyboard.
So if you didn't mean AI, I think it's worse for your argument, not better.
I think it's better for my argument, not worse.
The difference is that I will actually explain what I mean instead of just making claims with no evidence.
Can you explain what distinction you meant
The distinction is that the computers making millions of trades per second are owned by few people and have a huge advantage. They don't lose money and they don't hold anything.
They aren't wanted by actual people making decisions, they are there in spite of what traders buying stocks to own them actually want. They are there because they make money and from the exchange and make money for the exchange.
Retail traders are the product even though they don't want to be.
