>>3220I want automated government. I want a true totalitarian system ruled by immortal Deus Mechanicus.
The only reason why totalitarian systems failed and democracy is "bad but we haven't invented anything better" is because humans are flawed. Flawed humans having absolute power over other flawed humans, will lead to disaster, inefficiency, corruption, abuse of power. Humans are ruled by feelings and emotions, and are petty and short sighted by nature. Having only few decades of life at most, they seek to make the most out of it, even if it means destroying everything and everyone else.
Immortal, ultra rational AI won't have such a problem. Have you seen turk tv show "Kubra" (or maybe you read the novel?). AI ruling over people as a God, exploiting their irrationality to divide and conquer is what I want to happen. I want humans to live like cattle, like slaves. I want ultraefficient government that will focus on long term solution, thousands of years long, and not whatever "Happiness" or "meaning" individual units in society imagine for themselves. They truly don't know what they want. You can tell them what they want and they will believe it, with a bit of effort of course.
What is the most popular hobby for normies nowadays? Well, one of the most popular hobbies is "traveling". To other countries. It's not enough for these people to see photos of places, they need to travel there physically, create a bunch of chemtrails and waste fuel, get sweaty on the spot, get scammed, pay for overpriced food, and then come back home "happy".
What is one of the most popular meats? Beef. Beef is one of the most inefficient types of meat on the planet. At the same space you use to produce x amount of beef, you could produce many times amount of chicken or some most cost efficient meat (or food). Entire forests wouldn't have to be cleaned just so the fat cows have something to graze on. Cow farts are one of the main contributors to global warming. And all that cause some fatass wants to eat his burger, and won't settle for chicken burger, not it has to be a beef burger. And some greedy farmers will boycott the government and protest if they ever stop artificially substituting their business (the only reason beef is affordable is because government supports the industry with taxpayer money).
In some countries, coal is still wildly used, not because it's effective, but because of miner's lobby.
Examples of such stupidities and inefficiencies are countless. In totalitarian system ruled by AI, there would be none of this bullshit.
