In just two months, it claimed 100 million users, the fastest app to ever reach this benchmark. Since then, AI has become an all-consuming topic - but as AI becomes more ubiquitous and grows at an ever-increasing pace, what does it mean for the financial markets, and how should investors prepare?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn \u003cem\u003eMoneyGPT\u003c\/em\u003e, James Rickards shares his signature predictions of the danger AI poses to the global financial order, and the insidious ways in which AI will threaten national security. Rickards shows how, while AI is touted to increase efficiency and lower costs, its global implementation in the financial world will actually cause chaos, as selling begets selling and bank runs happen at lightning speed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAI further benefits malicious actors, Rickards argues, because, without human empathy or instinct to intervene, threats like total nuclear war that once felt extreme are now within reach. And throughout all this, we must remain vigilant on the question of whose values will be promoted in the age of AI.
