## Quote — verbatim

> It is perhaps the most important technological shift of our society... it is becoming to be a \[feudalistic\] society. People that have access to AI are going to win out over people that do not have access, and companies that control this access are going to amass so much power. If we don't do something about it now, we're going to lose out, because it's happening very, very, very fast.

## Context — site annotation, not spoken

Asked how to do decentralized AI when every project plugs into OpenAI/Microsoft; captions render "feudalistic" as "futilistic."
