Purposelessness leads to violence — and the panel thinks America is at the front edge of that curve. Jerremy Alexander Newsome and Dave Conley dig into widening wealth inequality, a shrinking middle class, two-tier justice, inflation, and AI displacement with Justin Meyers and Jason Sipple. They borrow Joe Rogan's "Bob the lawyer" thought experiment to explain what happens to identity when AI outperforms a 30-year career and UBI pays the bills anyway. Coaching work, mentorship, and acting before pain forces you to keep coming up as the practical counter. Then the conversation turns to data sovereignty — frontier AI APIs absorbing everything you type, social platforms profiling behavior, and what it would mean to actually own and monetize your own data through tokenized, immutable records.
