Hunter v Gatherers

There are still a few non-AI industries that are booming. For example: Corruption. “When Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick met with Kazakhstan’s president at the St. Regis Hotel last September in New York, President Trump jumped in by phone as the men sealed a deal on a top priority for Washington.” But it wasn’t only a top priority for Washington. It was also a top priority for the Lutnicks and the Trumps. “Their sons were soon doing business with partners in a deal that their fathers were negotiating, continuing a pattern of self-enrichment in the second Trump administration that has few precedents in American history.” Trump Cut a Billion-Dollar Mining Deal. His Sons Stand to Profit. Yet, we spent a lot more time writing articles about Hunter than these gatherers…

+ Trump bought as much as $5 million in Axon stock before ICE sought a $220 million Taser deal. But don’t worry. No conflict here. “The White House has said that Trump’s assets are held in a trust managed by his children.” (Phew…)
