Cognitive Mercantilism
- I’ve been reading Joyce Appleby’s The Relentless Revolution: A History of Capitalism (2010), and it has me circling a rather delicious thought: AI panic is really a form of cognitive mercantilism.
- If we regard the market capitalism as the first planetary intelligence, as many (including me) do, the parallels are closer than you might think.
- Appleby’s book is a sweeping history of capitalism, from its unlikely emergence in early modern England to its eventual transformation of the entire world.
