What happens when machines become more economically valuable than humans?This episode dives into the real future of AI—not a sudden singularity, but a steady shift that’s redefining how we work, govern, and live. Amanda is joined by George Hotz to explore why humans still matter in an AI-driven world, how value creation—not credentials—will shape the future, and what happens when intellectual property, the U.S. dollar, and even our attention become obsolete.Together, they challenge economic protectionism, advocate for high-skilled immigration, and explore emerging ideas like gold-backed digital currency and AI-enhanced hiring. From digital addiction to deregulation, this episode connects the dots between technology and the systems it’s disrupting.TIMESTAMPS00:00 AI Spectrum: Understanding Perspectives01:33 The Economic Competition of Machines03:05 The Myth of the Singularity05:04 Comparative Advantage and Human Value08:22 Humans and Machines: A Symbiotic Relationship10:01 Quality of Life in an AI World11:12 Aligning Economically with AI's Rise14:32 Intellectual Property and AI Abundance17:36 AI Alignment: Capability vs. Intent19:35 The Role of Government in AI Development22:10 Global Dynamics: East vs. West in Technology24:51 Cultural Expectations and Economic Cycles30:07 The Inefficiency of Tariffs and Protectionism31:21 Deregulation as a Path to Competitiveness42:45 High-Skilled Immigration: A Solution for Growth46:28 Addressing Financialization in America54:38 The Future of the US Dollar56:29 Exploring the Future of Currency and Governance01:01:15 The Evolution of Compute Technology01:10:41 Hiring Practices and AI in Programming01:11:52 The Risks of Wireheading and Digital AddictionRESOURCESGeorge on X: https://x.com/realGeorgeHotz Subscribe to Endgame: https://www.youtube.com/@endgamepodcast Amanda on X:  https://x.com/amandacassatt  Serotonin on X: https://x.com/serotonin  Endgame on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6iSvbKOJWoEPiAoGmiulkd   Endgame on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/endgame-with-amanda-cassatt/id1801809440  Substack: https://substack.com/@UCInZsV3L1nDGoFjxoNUnPQQ
