Automate or Die!


“Fortunately for all of us, an unlikely and unruly coalition has emerged to resist the AI takeover by taking aim at the industry’s core infrastructure. In 2025, about 48 datacenter projects worth an estimated $156bn were blocked or stalled by local opposition. By all measures, 2026 is shaping up to be an even bigger year for the AI resistance.” Guardian UK. You either learn the lessons of history (Detroit) or you are doomed to repeat them!

It is difficult to imagine that the Western democracies are going to embrace AI to the same degree as the Eastern dictatorships! That said it is also difficult to imagine that the Western democracies are going to survive over the longer haul. However China and India with their billion plus populations are very likely going to get push back from them if they begin tondos their jobs enmass!

And that is all I’m going to say about that!
