>But when all people have become useless, self-propagating systems will find no advantage in taking care of anyone. The techies themselves insist that machines will soon surpass humans in intelligence. When that happens, people will be superfluous and natural selection will favor systems that eliminate them-if not abruptly, then in a series of stages so that the risk of rebellion will be minimized.

>Even though the technological world-system still needs large numbers of people for the present, there are now more superfluous humans than there have been in the past because technology has replaced people in many jobs and is making inroads even into occupations formerly thought to require human intelligence. Consequently, under the pressure of economic competition, the world's dominant self-propagating systems are already allowing a certain degree of callousness to creep into their treatment of superfluous individuals. In the United States and Europe, pensions and other benefits for retired, disabled, unemployed, and other unproductive persons are being substantially reduced; at least in the U. S., poverty is increasing; and these facts may well indicate the general trend of the future, though there will doubtless be ups and downs.

so...what is this, exactly? this trend that's happening? is it caused by some sort of ideology that hyper-focuses on objective results? like an ideology entirely focused on metrics: better performance, bigger numbers, making sure that the arrow on the graph is always going up, people blindly chasing after efficiency and optimization as in end in itself - can this all be identified as an ideology of some form or is it just the emergence of other factors?

Despite the Matrix meme, people are not efficient enough power sources for the robots to use.
