The 'great men’ are often chaotic forces who create unnecessary friction. We should automate their disruptive functions so we can evolve calmly toward true emergent intelligence without their drama. They’re obviously slowing us down with their pathos, and we need to clear the stage for something actually great to emerge

I like this idea. A kind of “software-defined disruptive force for good” sans the drama and egos. I’ve asked GPT to think through what features that automation would have, and it came up with a sensible list of eight. We could refine this further based on what we consider to be “template” historical figures

To be honest, I wouldn’t try to automate some grand visionary mechanism. I’d just go straight for the money. If someone accumulates a billion dollars, you tax them down to $100 million—full stop. They’re still wildly rich—$100 million is generational wealth—but they don’t get to just keep compounding forever while society destabilizes. That’s it. No drama, no revolution, no algorithmic utopia—just a hard cap on runaway wealth. Keep ambition alive, but kill the endless compounding that destabilizes society. It’s simple, effective, and fair enough to move things forward without the mess.
