>>23621304You’re still thinking in 20th-century categories as “bureaucratic elites,” “power,” “authority.”
All of that only exists when human beings are the bottleneck of administration.
In a fully automated, AI-mediated communist structure, there is no ruling class because there is no one left to rule.
Allocation, planning, logistics, balancing scarce resources every part of it becomes a solved computational problem rather than a political strugle.
Human bureaucracy collapses not because someone abolishes it,
but because it becomes obsolete the moment machines outperform every aspect of it,
faster, cleaner, incorruptible, transparent.
People talk as if the AI would “serve a dictator,”
but that assumes human institutions survive the transition.
They won’t.
You cannot “capture” something that can copy itself infinitely, fork into parallel decision engines, verify its own outputs, and cross-audit every commune simultaneously without fatigue, bias, or personal interest.
Power stops being something individuals can even possess.
It dissolves into the infrastructure itself.
That’s why Cyber-Communism isn’t some utopian dream
it’s simply the political form that emerges when computation becomes more efficient at managing a society than humans ever could.
No elite, no bureaucracy, no centralized authority.
Just distributed planning engines coordinating production and consumption with a precision no human state ever achieved.
Not because it is “moral,”
but because it is inevitable once machines do it better.
People fear that idea because they imagine a dictator behind the curtain.
But the frightening part is this:
There is no dictator.
There is no curtain.
There is only the system running itself,
because it no longer needs us to do it.
