AI Futures: Beyond Human Labor by Jaffar Humayoon

Episode notes

You can’t unplug a system that is already running your economy. 📉🧱

This episode dives into the "Pride Trap" of modern governance. We look at why symbolic bans on foreign AI models are failing to save the middle class and why "national pride" has become a distraction from structural decay.
