AI and the Imminent Death of Capitalism

Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) and capitalism cannot coexist because successful AGI would make human workers obsolete across all industries. Unlike previous technological advances that created new jobs while eliminating others, AGI threatens to replace humans entirely since it can scale infinitely and work 24/7 without wages. Major tech companies are investing trillions in AI development, potentially creating a 'winner takes all' scenario where only AI companies profit while mass unemployment occurs. The transition could happen rapidly, and governments may be unprepared to handle the economic disruption through solutions like Universal Basic Income.
