Dans @curseurs, @stephanenoel fait avec "#IA, un vieux problème urgent" un tour en 7 parties avec à chaque fois au centre une critique anti-capitaliste claire et la mesure des prédations à l'œuvre. Une des meilleures synthèses que je connaisse?
1. "La réponse est à trouver du côté de la mise en disponibilité auprès du grand public de #ChatGPT, de #DallE et #Midjourney, par le biais d’une #disruption typique du #capitalisme marchand : un outil hors de portée est mis à disposition du grand public par une startup gavée d’argent spéculatif, coupant l’herbe sous les pieds de concurrents qui visaient des solutions payantes réservées à un public de niche."
2. #Kodak #FordT #époqualisme #Morozov #DavidEdgerton #softpower
3-4-5. "une approche via trois axes : la #captation des #communs, l’offensive des #politiquesdeloffre, et la #prolétarisation du #travail. [...] soigneusement éviter la fascination spéculativo-philosophique qui a saisi de nombreux observateur·ices."
6. "La politique néolibérale vit d’un paradoxe : elle affirme le monde comme globalisé en refusant d’accepter la gestion collective qui en découle"
7. "c’est un travail qui sera produit par des humain·es dans un rapport de force avec d’autres humain·es [...] infléchir une trajectoire vieille de plus de 500 ans, celle du capitalisme."

"Growth doesn't avoid chaos. It emerges from it." - Futurist Jim Carroll

You don’t rebuild for the future by protecting the past - particularly during a downturn.

So let's recap. In the first ten posts of this series, I've covered how belief, vision, action, and momentum create forward motion, even amid chaos. And yesterday, I pulled back the curtain on why many organizations fail to make that motion: fear, inertia, denial, and outdated thinking. You know, organizational sclerosis stuff!

Now we turn a corner.

Because once you’ve cleared the internal barriers…once you’ve named what’s been slowing you down… the next step is this: growth. And growth doesn’t come from optimizing what used to work. It comes from disrupting it. As they say, if you keep doing what you've always done, you'll get what you've always got! This will become exacerbated even more in the wild year that is 2025.

Fact is, In a downturn, many companies fall into a dangerous trap: they tweak the old playbook, hoping that what worked before will work again. So they shave budgets instead of rewriting business models. They cut costs without realigning purpose. They focus on “efficiency” instead of rethinking how they create value. They keep trying to sell the old product or service when the market suddenly needs a new one.

That’s not a strategy. That’s maintenance. And it fails every time

The companies that grow during volatility? They do the opposite. They redesign, not refine. They reinvent, not recover. They know that you won’t win in the next economy by trying to redo the last economy better. Here’s how high-performing, future-ready companies build through disruption—not despite it:

- they create new value, not just cut costs

- they launch new offerings that solve urgent problems in emerging markets or underserved segments.

- they reallocate skills and teams aggressively to solve problems, fast

- they implement a strategy of focusing on core customers to defend key revenue

Talent, capital, and attention all shift. They move decisively away from underperforming bets and double down on future-ready opportunities. They break their assumptions.  They don’t ask how to make something slightly better. They ask what it would look like if they had to build it from scratch for today. They eliminate internal friction.  Bureaucracy, bloated processes, and clunky systems are removed. They rebuild for speed and simplicity. They accelerate decisions with small, empowered teams that test, launch, and adapt.

They don’t wait for perfect clarity—they create clarity through motion.

They shape what comes next.

They grow.

“The videos were attributed on #Telegram to “#Melbourne #FreedomRally”, a large #RightWing group that led #protests against Covid restrictions during the #pandemic.

#DanielJones of self-defence company #TacticalForceCombatives claimed on Facebook to have taken part in the stunt. In a video posted this morning, Jones claimed to be “asking #Albanese some questions”, and said there was nothing “James Bond” about tracking down the #PrimeMinister.”

Whether or not the mass #tariff program is an entirely idiotic economic substitute-for-policy shouldn't be an issue and not just because it's settled/obviously so. It is a *deliberate* tactic, not a mistake, in furtherance of the Giant #Plunder and #Disruption, to collapse The #Public #society, systems, #norms, institutions, and of course, #democracy. Economists and pundits must categorically weigh in with clear messaging to that effect, in the crucial spirit of #counterdisruption, #publicOversight, sensible #regulation, #humanSecurity, #antiTrust, #teslaTakedown, #disloyaltyToFelons, and #peopleFirst policy. Without this focused view we're doomed, is the issue.

"Global Energy Market Disruption. This man has THE PLAN!!" [16:24 min]

"Nov 3, 2024
Global energy market disruption is desperately needed if the world is to stand any chance of achieving its decarbonisation goals. Taking on the incumbent behemoth monopolistic suppliers is no mean feat, but Greg Jackson is confronting the issue head one with a raft of initiatives that will not only revolutionise the UK energy sector but bring change to markets all over the world. I visited him at his London HQ to have a chat about what he's up to."

“If you want to be part of what’s next, leave your nostalgia at the door" - Futurist Jim Carroll

You need to commit.

Yesterday, or tomorrow?

I know where I'm going. It's in my job description.

Think about it - at this very moment, we’re witnessing a battle playing out everywhere—across boardrooms, governments, industries, at parties and sports events and family get togethers. The battle is being  driven by a vainglorious and ill-fated desire to try to take things back to where they were - not to where they are going.

And one of the most important things you need. to do is make your decision - and stick to it - as to where you are headed.

It's a battle of vision vs. nostalgia.

Of strategy vs. sentimentality.

Of building what’s next vs. longing for what was.

It's really not a fair fight.

We’ve reached a point where the familiar is failing - old industries are dying, old skills are becoming irrelevant,  old knowledge is going out of date, old jobs are disappearing. In the context of that? New industries, skills, knowledge, jobs - and new opportunities.

It's called disruptive change, and it is very real. The new rule is that older stable ideas aren’t stable. Playbooks that were once reliable aren’t playable. Assumptions and strategies that served the past no longer serve the future. The fact is, the world’s moving faster than our old systems were designed to handle.

And yet—some still cling to the comfort of past success like it’s a security blanket.

But nostalgia is not a strategy. It’s a sedative.

Recessions and disruptions are not the time to shrink your ambition.

They’re a time to reshape it.

So ask yourself: Are you holding onto what used to work—or reaching for what could?

The future doesn’t wait for comfort.

It rewards courage.

So what? #Trump plant auf Basis des #Vance/Thiel-Plans die totale #Disruption der internationalen Wirtschaftsbeziehungen. Diese implizite Schwächung der eigenen US-Wirtschaft zielt in Kombination mit #DrillBabyDrill auf billigen Dollar ohne Inflation? Klappt das?
Was klappt, ist, dass sich sämtliche anderen Akteure neu ausrichten und verbünden. Also im Zweifel geht die USA einfach krachen. Aber dann haben die ja noch die #nukes...
