The Ai boom has not only killed the creative industry but also made treats more expensive for the treatlerite, the whole reason they support the country in the first place, so whats the goal here why further alienate the labor aristocracy that supported you in favour of Ai (a technology I will always hold to be a scam) all for reaching AGI and even if it does reach AGI whats the goal then? No one would be able to afford it unless your rich and your economy can’t rely in them forever the end of the road here is societal collapse nothing more
I think this is actually a factor of the empire in decline. The treats were kept artificially cheap by superprofits generated by imperialism, but as the empire declines the treats stop being as cheap. It’s mass reproletarianization of the bourgeoisified workers in the imperial core. No more cushy PMC jobs, those are now being proletarianized and made precarious as everything else.
