Why The Ruling Class Fears AI (And It's a Good Thing) | ROP # 50
Update: 2025-09-10
Description
The modern panic over AI isn't new; it's a predictable pattern driven by elites whenever a technology threatens the status quo.
In this episode, Pessimists Archive founder Louis Anslow reveals the four archetypes behind every tech panic in history—from the novel and the bicycle to chess and coffee. We explore why this fear from the ruling class is actually a powerful sign of progress, and how understanding this pattern is the key to remaining a rational optimist in an age of hysteria.
