Bill Gates: Public Must ‘Suffer’ Major ‘Catastrophe’ to Usher In Globalist AI Dictatorship
by Frank Bergman
Bill Gates has declared that the general public will need to “suffer” the consequences of a major “catastrophe” in order for globalists to usher in the control of artificial intelligence that he’s been pushing for.
Gates argued that politicians would be pressured to impose the sweeping artificial intelligence controls he has been demanding if the public endures a devastating cyberattack.
During a new CBS interview, the Microsoft co-founder warned that a catastrophic incident involving Americans’ retirement savings could finally force the political response he believes is necessary.
“It may be that we have to suffer a few of the negatives before we respond as fully as we should,” Gates said.
The remarks add a disturbing new dimension to Gates’s escalating campaign for a group of global regulators to control international coordination over AI.
Gates Raised Prospect of Attack on Retirement Accounts
Speaking with CBS host Tony Dokoupil, Gates discussed the prospect of cyberattacks against major retirement platforms such as Fidelity or Vanguard.
Such an attack could throw millions of Americans’ nest eggs into chaos and create widespread uncertainty, Gates acknowledged.
He insisted that a catastrophic incident would not necessarily be civilization-ending, but argued that the damage could force the public and politicians to embrace the stronger restrictions he is seeking.
Gates has spent months warning that private companies cannot be trusted to police AI on their own.
He has repeatedly argued that government officials and law enforcement must step in to impose safeguards, monitoring, and rules on the rapidly advancing technology.
Critics, however, have warned that Gates’s pattern of dire predictions is being used to build support for more centralized control over a technology that could otherwise drive innovation and productivity.
