I disagree completely. There is no ought either expressed or implied nor do humans have to be hacked. He is merely reading history and current events and projecting a likely outcome, a dearth of productive jobs that aren't done by AI/robotics...an outcome with which I agree. When there are no productive jobs for 75+% of humanity, we'll have a lot of people knitting, water coloring and playing the guitar...and fishing and playing baseball and football. That whole paragraph is out of left field...though the left likely wishes for that.
Sure, we can reject CBDC...but we won't. 'We' will demand it just as we demand that we support Ukraine and Israel and that we protect the world's shipping and that we upgrade and expand our electrical grid and on and on it goes. Heck, people have already bought into CBDC, I'll bet you carry a debit card in your wallet and that you write checks or use EFT for your bills. When our banks fail (or should I say continue to fail) and people can't get to their money, CBDC will sound great to them because they don't know the control they'll be giving up. There are forces out there trying to destroy the value of the dollar and it's working. My fear is that we'll never get to find out if AI/robotics is friend or foe because we'll be living in the 17th or 18th Century again. Maybe that's preferable.
A 'bill of rights' written by who? Enforced by who? This is not a US problem, this is a world problem and those who control the world, quite indifferent to our concerns or desires, are well on their way to a tyranny of the elite...the 'useful eaters'. If there is a bill of rights it is being expressed by the UN and by the WHO both of which, I believe, are being driven by 'higher powers'.
There are definitely plans but you and I aren't in it and I am pessimistic that we can stop it...as is Harari.
You misunderstand me, and I think the nature of ethical philosophy as well. I don't agree with Harari, but they definitely have ideas about what "ought" to be done.
We, the people, have to think about and come up with our own bill of rights regarding technology, just as was done during the original framing of the bill of rights. Otherwise we're in for surveillance and control. Why in God's name leave it up to the WHO or UN, both of which should be abolished.?
If you say we can't stop it, then I hope you hadn't already given up. We need everyone doing every little thing they can to put sand in their tanks.
