[ExI] Market capitalism as quasi-AI; o'Reily interview

[Jordan Hosmer-Henner]

"I came around to thinking that in some ways financial markets are that
rogue AI that people like Elon Musk have been talking about... in which you
have an increasingly algorithmic financial system saying, "Hey, optimize
for corporate profit because it drives stock price. Never mind what happens
to the people. Never mind what happens to society." We're in that AI-driven
situation."
