People are confused.

The circular trade deals we see during the AI boom where companies basically pass around the same pile of cash to each other and grow their valuations is a preview of what’s to come. They are normalizing a world of less consumers.

Wealthy people and corporations will just pass money to each other back and forth through deals and contracts. The underclass will be shut out.

NGMI companies will fight for scraps from these poor underclass consumers, until they ultimately starve.

The world will just be left with big megacorps and their machines. Wealthy titans will digitize their souls and keep their image alive in perpetuity, long after their body has decayed to bones.
