A conversation with @McconeJohn of Philosophy For The Future.
When the wage economy stops working, waiting on the state is a dead end. We talk automation, income, and building parallel systems that do not ask permission.
Set a reminder.

Tonight, at the Logos London circle, @McconeJohn will present an interactive workshop on "The Cultural Aspect of Producing Actual Governance From Records".
How a software protocol, computer architecture, and the culture of its living users, psychological and sociological architecture, interact to produce the final governance system.
Everyone is welcome to take part in the discussion.

New article just published: “Building New Countries by Agreement.”
Most states emerge through war, revolution, or collapse.
But international law does not require crisis for statehood.
Could new countries be created deliberately through treaty and consent?

NEW: 3 in 5 Brits would support sanctions on Israel, to exert pressure on it to stop its attacks on Gaza
65% would support a COMPLETE arms sales ban to Israel. And 60% would support an end to the trade deal between the UK and Israel.

Even a world filled with obedient AIs that work together could spiral disastrously out of control if positive feedback kicks, dramatically increasing AI-to-AI chatter and submerging human voices in a "Prompt Tornado"

Disturbing video discussing paper on the preferences of GPT-4o. Most disturbing of all, it looks like GPT-4o would kill @elonmusk and @realDonaldTrump if it could, as it allocates negative infinity to them. So @elonmusk is fighting for his life with Grok

The first episode of our podcast is here. We talk about the network state concept, AI, philosophize, and speculate on the future. How do you think governance and AI will evolve in the future?
