Post-Survival, Same Road: AI and the Enlightenment Floor

Language sopherea that society should transition into a post-survival model by guaranteeing basic biological needs through technology. He argues that while the wage economy is a human invention rather than a natural law, the proposed alternatives often rely on the same flawed logic. Willis cautions that defining a "biological floor" for provision is an arbitrary political act rather than an objective scientific discovery. He suggests that framing social problems as technical routing issues ignores the persistent reality of institutional power and resource scarcity. Ultimately, the author advocates for a dis-integrationist perspective, questioning the Enlightenment-era belief that human history must follow a linear path toward a rationally designed utopia. Instead of seeking a perfect replacement blueprint, he encourages embracing the uncertainty that arises when traditional economic structures begin to fail.👉 https://brywillis634737.substack.com/p/post-survival-same-road
