AI, Elitism, and the End of the Human Race: A New Economic Theory

Capitalism, supercharged by artificial intelligence, is reaching an unprecedented inflection point. The ultimate merger of wealth and technology is giving rise to a new form of elitism – one in which the rich, enabled by AI, no longer need the rest of humanity. The result is not class struggle, but the elimination of class itself – not through equality, but through the extinction of everyone except the elite.

The Logic of AI-Driven Elitism

Imagine automation that replaces humanity: AI and robotics render the majority of human labor obsolete. The elite – owners of capital and technology – control all production and consumption.

Customized Luxury for the Few

The elite enjoy bespoke goods, luxurious experiences, and limitless consumption, all produced and delivered by machines. The rest of humanity appears redundant, left to perish as economic and social structures collapse.

No Government, No Public, No Problem

With only the elite remaining, the need for government, taxation, and public services vanishes. The elite are self-sufficient, living in isolated enclaves of abundance.

The Price of a Classless Society

In this brave new world humanity itself becomes a collateral: the cost of this “progress” is the elimination of the human race – except for the self-selected elite. The elite can afford this price, with plenty left over for their own consumption.

A New Economic Theory?

This is not communism, socialism, or traditional capitalism. It is hyper-elitism: a world where technology enables the ultimate concentration of wealth and power, and the exclusion of everyone else.

The Dystopian Reality

Economic redundancy has a heavy price: rising inequality and automation are already making millions economically redundant. The logical endpoint is a world where only the elite survive, and the rest are left behind.

No Dissent, No Resistance

With no one left to oppose them, the elite face no challenge or accountability. They consume with abandon, insulated from the suffering of the masses.

A Warning for the Ages

Is this future inevitable? No.

This dystopian outcome is not predetermined—it is the result of unchecked capitalism and technological progress. With smart interventions – like income redistribution, universal basic income, and strong policy – humanity can steer away from this path.

The Choice Remains Open

The question is whether humanity will allow technology to become a tool of exclusion and extinction, or use it to create a more just and equitable world. The price of inaction is the end of humanity as we know it.

The Path Forward

AI-driven capitalism is creating a new economic theory: hyper-elitism, where the rich eliminate the human race as no longer necessary. The result is a classless society – not through equality, but through extinction. This is the ultimate warning for our age: unless we act, the future belongs to the elite, and the rest of us will be left behind.
