  • This isn’t a problem with capitalism, it’s a problem with governments. If we eliminate government entirely (e.g. anarcho-capitcapitalism), there are no regulations, thus no regulatory capture

    No, in that case you would just have large existing corporations hiring hit squads to kill potential competitors instead which is obviously much better /s The desire to do what regulatory capture does originates in capitalism, not in government, government just turns it from a violent action into one of bureaucracy.

    If they outsource their thinking and coding to an LLM, they might start getting ahead quickly

    As a programmer I have yet to see evidence that LLMs can even achieve that. So far everything they product is a mess that needs significant effort to fix before it even does what was originally asked of the LLM unless we are talking about programs that have literally been written already thousands of times (like Hello World or Fibonacci generators,…).


  • The problems you see in government are the problems caused by capitalism through regulatory capture.

    Not to mention that there are plenty of inherent problems with capitalism since it just doesn’t work for products bought e.g. only once or twice in your life or where the quality can otherwise not be judged by the buyer before buying.
