A blueprint for the future of education and knowledge access is proposed, focusing on basic literacy and numeracy while problematizing critical or divergent thinking. This plan involves mining public knowledge and spaces, then restricting access, ultimately selling AI subscriptions for skills and knowledge previously available freely. The ultimate goal appears to be wealth accumulation for tech billionaires at the expense of the planet and public access to information. AI
