About this episode

Courtenay Turner and Patrick Wood discuss the implications of the U.S. State Department's Pax Silica initiative in the context of AI and technocracy.

The U.S. State Department's Pax Silica initiative reframes Pax Americana for the AI age — chips, semiconductors, critical minerals, energy, data centers, payment rails. This week in Beijing, two of the Trilogy of Boards Patrick Wood predicted clicked into place. The Trilogy is now whole. In this two-and-a-half-hour conversation, Courtenay Turner and Patrick Wood — co-authors of The Final Betrayal: How Technocracy Destroyed America — walk the architecture being built around you: Pax Silica, the IMEC corridor, the Abraham Accords as the template for the China play, the Five Walls boxing China in, Gaza's new order under the Board of Peace, Taiwan as silicon shield and silicon hostage, the tokenization of property and the New York Stock Exchange, the occult roots of the technocratic movement, and how to think about preserving sovereignty, autonomy, and property in a rapidly closing system.
