Global Monetary Reset ‘Sneaking Up on Us,’ AI-Triggered Meltdown Could Amplify Collapse | Rickards

Michelle Makori, President & Editor-in-Chief, Miles Franklin Media, sits down with James Rickards, New York Times bestselling author and editor of the Strategic Intelligence newsletter, for a conversation on gold, artificial intelligence, and the growing risk of a global monetary crisis.Rickards explains why a move to $10,000 gold by the end of 2026 would not surprise him, breaking down the math behind gold’s accelerating price moves and why the most explosive phase often comes last. He also warns that the world has not yet entered the “retail frenzy” stage.The discussion then turns to a far more unsettling risk: AI-driven market instability. Rickards outlines how deepfakes, automated trading systems, and algorithmic decision-making could trigger market panic in minutes and why traditional safeguards like circuit breakers may no longer work in an AI-dominated system.Michelle presses Rickards on whether an AI-triggered meltdown could collide with a global monetary reset, amplifying bank failures, liquidity shortages, and systemic risk across the financial system.In this episode of The Real Story:- Why gold at $10,000 may arrive faster than most expect- The math behind gold’s accelerating price moves- Why the retail gold frenzy hasn’t started yet- How AI and deepfakes could trigger market panic- Why circuit breakers may fail in an AI-driven crash- Whether a global monetary crisis or AI meltdown comes first#gold #AI #markets #crisis #reset Follow Michelle Makori on X: https://x.com/MichelleMakori        Follow Miles Franklin Media on X: https://x.com/MilesFranklinCo  Follow James Rickards on X: https://x.com/RealJimRickards00:00 Coming Up04:05 Why Gold Has Rallied09:40 The Math & Psychology of a Fast Move to $10K 13:06 Catalysts That Could Turbocharge Gold: Retail Frenzy, Shocks & AI Risk14:52 Gold Revaluation Buzz: Could Trump Reprice U.S. Gold Reserves?31:12 China’s Yuan Ambitions & Hidden Gold38:36 BRICS Settlement Layer40:17 MoneyGPT: AI in Finance & the Hidden Fragility of 'Same' Algorithms44:35 Deepfake Fed Chair Scenario50:37 Why Circuit Breakers Fail in the AI Era53:22 After the Crash01:04:23 Investor Playbook: Real Diversification Across Asset Classes01:07:04 AI Meltdown vs. Global Dollar Shortage & Monetary Reset01:13:55 Final Wrap
