## Resource

Brace McKoy spent 11 years in the army after attending West Point. Thereafter, he was primarily in the defense industry. He authored a book in addition to other papers on the issues surrounding AI's emergence, the probability of aliens among us, and the forced reduction of population partly due to AI induced mass unemployment. He opines governments will have to take more control over the citizenry and consider a basic subsistence income. He also speaks on the role of religion. Specifically, his faith in Christianity. It's a conversation you don't want to miss.
