Paul Jay explores the growing danger of artificial intelligence not as an evil superintelligence but as a system reflecting the values of those who control it: corporate monopolies, military planners, and billionaires racing for dominance.
Jay connects AI to nuclear weapons, Trump’s so-called “Golden Dome,” and the broader logic of profit-driven power. But he also argues there’s a different path—one grounded in public ownership, democratic oversight, and AI that serves human needs, not corporate greed.

Yes Paul, but AI is mainly a hoax anyway. It's just another SILLY CON VALLEY perpetual growth story used to attract venture capital.

The wrong people always own it.
Most of the Classical economists from Adam Smith onward, wanted to abolish economic rent, or tax rent out of the system to make it far more efficient & equitable. They saw a free market as one free from rent. With Feudalism just behind them, they could see how inefficient & inequitable a rentier society could be – a stifling monstrosity going nowhere, worthy of revolutions & lots of aristocratic head chopping.
Modern economics has wiped away the whole of 19th century economic thought, it’s not just Marx it’s everything that’s been scrubbed out & memory holed. Economic students today study mathematical formulas & algorithms all day, to slot into economic models which themselves are insane. Anyway, lets revive some of the old ideas. The best thing to do with monopoly rent is not to let it happen in the first place, with non-profit state-owned enterprises, or simply tax it away. Lower everyone’s cost of living. Efficiency dictates – a high rate of tax on unearned income is a prerequisite for wealth concentrating Capitalism – they go together like day & night. But the distinction between earned & unearned income is long gone, destroyed by the Robber Barron super rich to legitimise being super rich. What to do? Tax wealth, not work – then inequality equalises, as productivity & wellbeing increase. It’s all been measured in The Spirit Level – equality rocks.
If we cant drop financial capitalism & get back the industrial capitalism, state owned enterprises that don't charge rent on top of price, state planning of where we want to go, where we actually make stuff that people want, the basics, then from within our system AI can only be a malign force in military & private hands.
Great questions Paul. 10 million vs 8 billion. Plus the tech bros aren't our friends. The addiction is being pushed on people by endless commercials, one very evil construct to create a wish but leave you wishing until …
Thanks Paul 👍💪✌
Everyone should go watch Richard Murphy's vid titled "Should big tech issue crypto?"
Its about the GENIUS Act that's going to the US Congress which basically gives the very same Tech Broligarchy that's pushing these AI systems unlimited free for all on generating and controlling new crypto currencies.
Combined these things are not a scam but an outright GRASP for POLITICAL POWER.
Of course, they are symbiotic. JP.
