Simon argues that the world is moving towards a more centralised architecture of artificial intelligence, social credit scores, programmable money and financial control. Simon and I discuss why AI may be the most important opportunity of our lifetime, how small businesses can now build tools that once required entire teams, why politics may no longer be the route to change, and why the answer may be to build with AI, own assets that cannot easily be captured, and become sovereign. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - TIMESTAMPS: 00:00:00 - Take the Golden Pill 00:01:22 - Are We Slaves to the Algorithm? 00:02:50 - Freedom of Speech, Not Freedom of Reach 00:07:27 - Is Media Just About Power? 00:10:00 - Why Scale Gets Captured 00:13:08 - Bitcoin, Self-Custody and Sovereignty 00:17:29 - What Is at Stake? 00:18:49 - Is AI Different from the Internet? 00:20:11 - Building With AI 00:25:18 - AI and the Software Apocalypse 00:26:33 - You’re Done, You’re Cooked 00:30:49 - These Companies Can Turn You Off 00:31:37 - Is China Winning Open-Source AI? 00:36:53 - Money Printing, BlackRock and the Fed 00:40:05 - World War III or Currency War? 00:48:01 - The Petrodollar Is Breaking 01:01:20 - Before It Was Ships, Now It’s AI 01:05:26 - Politics Is Gone 01:18:54 - London Is Cooked 01:29:43 - The Golden Pill 01:44:52 - Advice to Young People - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - CONTACT PETE › Website – http://petermccormack.com › Feedback – https://www.petermccormack.com/contact › Email – me@petermccormack.com › Ins… ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/the-peter-mccormack-show-525419/episodes/179-simon-dixon-the-one-world-government-is-already-here/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-peter-mccormack-show-525419/179-simon-dixon-the-one-world-government-is-already-here.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
