Grimes, the pop star and Elon Musk girlfriend, has a «proposition for the communists» that involves artificial intelligence.<\/b>
\nGrimes has a \u201cproposition for the communists.\u201d But apparently the communists aren\u2019t interested. On Tuesday, Grimes posted a TikTok for her 175. K followers captioned, \u201cA.I. is the fastest path to communism.\u201d Appearing with face markings drawn in eyeliner in front of a panel from the manga \u201cBerserk,\u201d the singer outlined her thoughts on artificial intelligence technology and the way she believes it can be applied to communism. Watch it here. \u201cSo typically, most of the communists I know are not big fans of A.I.,\u201d she began. \u201cBut, if you think about it, A.I. is actually the fastest path to communism.\u201d She continued, \u201cSo, if implemented correctly, A.I. could actually theoretically solve for abundance. Like, we could totally get to a situation where nobody has to work; everybody is provided for with a comparable state of being, comfortable living. A.I. could automate all the farming, we could out systematic corruption, thereby bringing us as close as possible to genuine equality.\u201d \u201cSo basically, everything that everybody loves about communism, but without the collective farm,\u201d she concluded, \u201c\u2018Cause, let\u2019s be real, enforced farming is really not a vibe.\u201d The video has racked up over 1 million views and 16K comments, the top being \u201cur husband puts children in factories,\u201d \u201cnot a vibe-karl marx,\u201d and \u201cshe thought she was getting back in.\u201d Grimes\u2019s boyfriend is Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX that just so happens to be one of the richest people on the planet and, assumedly, a proponent of capitalism. The couple also have a child together. TikToker users were also quick to point out that Grimes doesn\u2019t seem to understand the core values of the ideology, reminding her that the goal of communism is not \u201cnobody has to work\u201d but rather a collective, equitable ownership of federal resources. News of Grimes\u2019s TikTok inevitably made it to Twitter, where users reacted to the strangeness and hypocrisy of the video.<\/p>\n
