YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThe push for 15-minute cities and autonomous vehicle fleets is part of a larger technocratic project to eliminate private car ownership, corral populations into surveilled zones, and replace freedom of movement with algorithm-controlled transit. So says Whitney Webb, who also notes that the Columbus Smart City initiative, backed by Leslie Wexner's public-private partnerships, was designed to create a system where autonomous Ubers follow predetermined routes and residents lose control over where they can travel.
Webb tells Jimmy that the National Security Commission on AI, chaired by Google's Eric Schmidt, explicitly argued that ending private car ownership in the United States was necessary to "beat China" in AI—framing mass surveillance and mobility control as a national security imperative. She traces this ideology back to early 20th-century technocracy movements and Taylorism, where efficiency is prioritized over human autonomy.
