262 - On the eve of another election, we face the question of who we want to lead us: Democrats or Republicans?

However, there is a more fitting question: Which style of technocracy would we like to vote for?

Artificial intelligence promises to transform society, yet in the hands of authoritarian regimes and centralized powers, it poses a grave threat to human freedom, autonomy, and identity.

As AI technology progresses, it may facilitate not only external social control but also the internal alteration of human biology and psychology through transhumanism. This convergence of AI and human enhancement, or a "man-machine merger," raises profound ethical and existential questions.

We explore how, if left unchecked, these trends could lead to a dystopian reality where humanity is reshaped, and individual autonomy is sacrificed to technocratic control. However, by embracing voluntaryism and decentralization, society can navigate this transformation responsibly, protecting human agency and ensuring that technological evolution serves human values.
