    I can't read the article. nevertheless, who knows maybe we are seeing the peak. There is going to be a revolt sooner or later . This election was pretty much about revolt.

    Also some of the newer gang, are hiding behind the scenes and are not getting involved. Ai will influence them to think differently more than previous generations. They are also product of Ai. The older ones are starting to lose their juice.

    Uhh they already are? An order of magnitude more powerful even. They influence or even directly control in some cases: government officials, elections, defense, global enterprise.

    Musk with Starlink use in Ukraine.

    Zuck with election interfering across multiple countries, going back over a decade.

    Microsoft disabling email for UN officials.
