Automating Infidelicacy


AI firm Astronomer's top brass were caught canoodling at a recent ColdPlay concert.  CEO Andy Byron and Human Resources Chief Kristin Cabot were arm in arm when the high tech Kiss Cam found them.  The scramble to remain unidentified began.

Let's run this through the human intelligence filter.  Most companies ban or discourage interoffice romances.  Most religions consider infidelity to be an earthly pursuit that harms a marriage and one's relationship with God, i.e. a sin.

If AI is worth its salt it would realize there is a class of people for which the rules, including laws, do not apply.  There are policy making billionaires on both the Red and Blue political teams.  Private equity underwriters' (PEU) highly unpopular tax dodge remains firmly in place (fifteen years and running).  They saw long ago the benefits of hiring former government officials for non-lobbying influence.   They owned government consultants and could see/push the next big area of government spend, front run that by buying companies in that arena, ride the profit wave and flip it for a ten bagger.

TechGods, like Andy Byron, learned the benefits of cozying up to Uncle Sam.  They threw their considerable might behind. Trump II, the digital Caligula.  Trump II has usurped everything he touches, from Club World Cup trophies/medals to the Jeffrey Epstein files to the rights of U.S. citizens not to be held in ICE detention for three days.  

Trump II and his PEU/TechGod/CryptoBro supporters know the game.  Trump has to point in the direction of his desires and they execute.  I'll wager CBS cancellation of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert was one of those pointings.  That CBS buyout should be firmly on track (new owner is son of a major TechGod)

They legitimize the illegitimate. They normalize criminality. They have commandeered the US Treasury and Federal Reserve System for their own benefit while DEBAUCHING the savings unit of citizens while promoting meme-coins to the masses. They are the Antithesis of the Founding Fathers . We are the hollow men.
Ba da bing...
