Dystopian AI Future Fantasy: Chips, Governing Councils, and Population Culling

from They Got Greta, A.I. Hollywood, & The Battle For Tik Tok | The Tim Dillon Show #464 · #464

7 min

Tim spins an extended sci-fi monologue imagining a future where AI runs government and society, population is culled to solve economic problems, people have death-predicting chips, and he explains the 'old ways' of scandal and war to his imagined grandchildren.

In this bit10 moments
  • Tilly Norwood will eventually take over as president and run Congress and the Senate.
  • The government needs to figure out how to eliminate a third to half the population quickly to solve the AI job displacement crisis.
  • Once half the population is culled, society rebuilds as 'build back better' with AI governors and AI movies.
  • AI Congress and Senate would be entertaining to watch from a pod after everyone else is dead.
  • Future generations will learn that past humans used blackmail leverage from secret affairs and child sexual abuse footage to control politicians' votes.
  • Politicians blackmailed this way would consent to the destruction of their own towns for 'the greater good,' like a House of Cards scene.
  • Society is steered by watching AI debate different options, all facilitated by mandatory chips implanted in everyone's bodies.
  • The chip tells you exactly when you will die, allowing perfect funeral planning and life scheduling.
  • A governing council of AI and humans now runs the world after the great war eliminated the nation-state system.
  • The sterile, corporate smart-city future will be fine and boring until someone hacks the system and shuts down all the technology in people's bodies.
