I like how BigTech is just the in-universe reason for most of the problems with technology in BCG.

Like if a fanfic writer wants to insert some type of fancy or new shenanigans with technology, but they're struggling, they can literally just say it's from BigTech and it's malfunctioning. Or that the AI got out of hand.

And that's entirely on brand with what they got in the show. Especially considering Gwendolyn's ideas.

Wann platzt die Blase?

"Künstliche Geschäfte" um "künstliche Intelligenz"

Unsinnigerweise ist unsere Wirtschaft auf ständiges Wachstum ausgerichtet - das ist etwas was in einem geschlossenem System, welches unser Planet darstellt nicht existieren kann. Sicher konnte man auf Kosten der "unterentwickelten Länder" durch Versklavung, Ausbeutung deren Rohstoffe und Export eigener Erzeugnisse 200 Jahre riesige Gewinne machen, aber demnächst ist auch damit Schluss.

Noch verrückter klingt es, wenn man mit KI, also vereinfacht gesagt mit angeblich fortschrittlicher Programmierung, aus dem existierenden Wirtschaftskreislauf exorbitante zusätzliche Gewinne heraus holen möchte. Langsam bekommen deshalb auch wichtige Finanzjongleure Muffensausen und fürchten den Zusammenbruch der KI Blase. Ntv warnt im verlinkten Artikel vor "Bewertungen von Palantir mit fast 500 Milliarden Dollar Börsenwert bei Umsätzen von gerade mal vier Milliarden Dollar und anderen Tech-Firmen wie Nvidia mit fast fünf Billionen Dollar haben sich inzwischen komplett von der Realität entkoppelt."

Wenn man genau hinsieht, dann erkennt man, dass der KI-Hype nur von Kreisgeschäften finanziert wird, durch die sich viele Tech-Firmen gegenseitig quersubventionieren. Ntv schreibt sogar, dass der KI-Boom künstlich aufgebläht wird, in dem viele der Billionen von Investment-Dollars doppelt gezählt werden und reale Umsätze und Wachstum werden verschleiert. Die Tech-Riesen werden zu einem gigantischen Oligopol (https://www.n-tv.de/wirtschaft/Die-USA-sind-eine-riesige-Wette-auf-KI-article26103609.html).

Im unten verlinkten Artikel werden diese Kreisgeschäfte für die bekannten Akteure OpenAI, Microsoft, CoreWeave, Nvidea, Oracle und AMD genauer beschrieben. Das Fazit: Die Tech-Giganten hängen auf Gedeih und Verderb an Sam Altmans Erfolg bei OpenAI (siehe gestrigen Artikel https://www.a-fsa.de/de/articles/9339-20251109-eko-gegen-open-ai.html) Das kann nicht dauerhaft gut gehen, deshalb könnte der kürzlich auf X gepostete Satz von Hedgefonds-Manager Michael Burry prophetisch sein: "Manchmal ist es der klügste Spielzug, gar nicht mitzuspielen."

Wir sehen in der Wirtschaft aber kein Spielzeug, sondern die künftigen Lebensgrundlagen für alle Menschen. So etwas gehört nicht auf den Roulette-Tisch - Wirtschaft muss im Sinne der Menschen geplant und gestaltet werden. Enteignet nicht nur die großen Wohnungskonzerne, sondern erst recht Big Tech bevor die Blase platzt.

If you don't want a man unhappy politically, don't give him two sides to a question to worry him; give him one. Better yet, give him none. Let him forget there is such a thing as war. If the government is inefficient, top-heavy, and tax-mad, better it be all those than that people worry over it. Peace, Montag. Give the people contests they win by remembering the words to more popular songs or the names of state capitals or how much corn Iowa grew last year. Cram them full of noncombustible data, chock them so damned full of 'facts' they feel stuffed, but absolutely 'brilliant' with information. Then they'll feel they're thinking, they'll get a sense of motion without moving. And they'll be happy, because facts of that sort don't change.

This week I found out that LibGen, the library of stolen content that Facebook used to train its AIs, includes most of my work.

No creator is safe - and worse, we all know what the intent is - to replace creators with a GenAI monopoly that fuels their enormous profits.

When Tech Billionaires Reinvent Eugenics

Eugenics is often seen as a dark relic of the past—linked to racist policies and forced sterilization. But what if a new, subtler form of eugenics is quietly taking shape in Silicon Valley?

Not through explicit genetic selection, but through an ideology that glorifies optimization, intelligence, and high performance as the only measures of human worth. Social Darwinism, once discredited, is being repackaged in the language of innovation and progress.

Who gets to shape the future?

Elon Musk, Peter Thiel, and other tech leaders present themselves as visionaries, architects of a better tomorrow. But their worldview shares a troubling core belief: only the most capable, the most intelligent, the most "enhanced" deserve to thrive.

Peter Thiel openly criticizes democracy, arguing that "freedom" thrives only under the rule of an enlightened few. Musk speaks of biological enhancement and space colonization as essential to humanity’s survival. Meanwhile, Silicon Valley startups pour billions into genetic engineering, AI-driven talent selection, and life extension—but who will have access to these advancements?

The Rise of Economic Eugenics

This is not traditional racial eugenics, but an economic form of selection where only the "most productive" individuals matter. Tech moguls advocate for skilled migration policies—not for the sake of inclusion, but to extract the best and discard the rest.

Medical research funding follows the same logic: rare diseases get sidelined because they aren't "profitable," while cognitive enhancement and biohacking attract massive investments. In a world where resources are limited, who gets to decide who is worth saving?

A Dangerous Future

This ideology is no longer confined to Silicon Valley. It has echoes in political movements that prioritize the strong over the vulnerable, cutting social aid and shifting towards a ruthless meritocracy.

If we continue down this path, we risk creating a world where only the optimized, the efficient, and the wealthy are deemed worthy of survival.

How do we resist this shift?

The real challenge isn’t just technological; it’s ethical. Do we accept a society where only the strongest thrive, or do we fight for a future that values all of humanity—including its fragility?

Boycott Israel

and another thing, ima about to fuck with yall's websites. gotta do that whole shit over bc guess what

Wix Squarespace are affiliated with Israli bigtech. (squarespace actually is based in Israel) Shopify is Canadian web.com is American IONOS is German

godaddy bought an Israli company, I wont boycott companies unless they are significant to Israeli industry. I want to clarify this is not out of hate this is a way to be heard. The purpose of boycotting is to create a dip in sales that gets noticed by big businesses. This can be used as leverage but more of a push to do the morally correct thing. Do not do things out of hate or anger, okay?

Funny how Israel's tech industry is so big but there's poverty next door. What can BIGTECH do to nourish the general welfare surrounding Israel?
