How to Use AI to Reignite the American Dreams

As a longtime futurist and intuitive, I have always had a sense of the country's state. I remember feeling people’s simmering frustration leading up to gas pump wars in the 1970s and the near-delusional enthusiasm we had for the future during much of the 1980s…before we became so corrupted that we let Walmart decimate family-owned businesses nationwide in the early 1990s.

I remember how disempowered people felt as they watched American craftsmanship die and our robust manufacturing capabilities be replaced by cheap imports from Asia, which have now reached garbage-level quality. Let’s not forget the millions of jobs globalist-run corporations have shipped out while paying CEOs absurd amounts of money.

“Yep, I have been around long enough to witness the great ransacking of our prosperity." I knew things were bad a few years ago, but they now rest on the border of no return. As a patriot and conscious living problem solver, I felt drawn to figuring out how to get us out of the mess we have made. That sent me down the rabbit hole of reigniting the American Dream. In my research, I saw that massive change has been a friend to us in the past. Looking at our post-WW2 prosperity, I realized massive change allows us to create crucial strategic change. This is how I came to understand that the fourth industrial revolution, the Age of AI, could allow us to reset everything. In writing A New American Dream, I saw the Age of AI as our most incredible opportunity to fix many of our biggest mistakes.

Everything is already undergoing major change. Instead of watching it happen and seeing a handful of the same people and mega corporations benefit, we can get ahead of it and use it to force a transformation. America needs a makeover! Conscious living is about being present, facing the truth, and taking the challenging, often “scarier” road to a healthier, more sustainable future. This country must make profound changes, or I predict that we and the American Dream will never recover. I feel the same concern for this moment in our history from our foreign fans worldwide. They want us to make the hard choice for major change. “It is time to stop playing world-savior and save ourselves. We must become selfish enough to build a brighter future and become a better partner to the world.”

On that note, I pulled some vital solutions to our most challenging issues from A New American Dream. Here are some of the most powerful ways we can use AI to deal with our most significant challenges and bring back jobs, pride, and manufacturing to the country.

Rebuilding the American Dream Through Job Creation

AI can help rebuild the American economy by generating new, high-tech jobs, especially in fields like AI development, data science, robotics, and renewable energy. AI can also facilitate job retraining programs that equip workers with the skills needed in emerging industries. By automating repetitive tasks and enhancing productivity, AI can allow workers to focus on more creative, higher-value roles, creating a more dynamic job market.

Strengthening American Manufacturing and Emphasizing American-made Products

AI can revitalize American manufacturing by automating production lines, optimizing supply chains, and reducing inefficiencies. Smart factories powered by AI can produce goods at a competitive cost while maintaining high quality. AI can also help enforce strict quality controls on imports, ensuring that only well-made products enter the U.S. market. This emphasis on "American-made" can bolster national pride, encourage domestic production, and create a more self-sufficient economy.

Banning Poorly Made Imports and Promoting Consciously Crafted and Sustainable Products

AI can be used to inspect and regulate the quality of imported goods, banning products that fail to meet rigorous safety and environmental standards. Through intelligent trade monitoring, AI can help identify counterfeit or substandard products. By promoting high-quality, sustainable American-made products, AI can help shift consumer demand away from cheaply made imports, fostering a more responsible and resilient market.

Transforming Education and Workforce Development

AI can revolutionize education by providing personalized learning experiences that adapt to the needs of every student. It can also automate workforce development by identifying skills gaps, predicting job market trends, and creating tailored training programs, especially for those displaced by automation. Additionally, AI can foster a resurgence in vocational training, preparing workers for AI-enhanced manufacturing and other industries critical to America’s future.

Healthcare Access, Cost Reduction, and Equity

AI can reduce healthcare disparities and costs by optimizing diagnostic tools, automating administrative tasks, and enhancing telemedicine services. Predictive analytics can streamline treatment plans and reduce unnecessary procedures, ultimately lowering healthcare costs. AI can also improve drug discovery and development, reducing the cost of pharmaceuticals by speeding up research processes and personalizing treatments. Additionally, AI can optimize healthcare supply chains to ensure fair pricing across different regions and demographics.

Lowering Food Costs and Enhancing Food Security

AI can revolutionize agriculture by improving crop yields, optimizing supply chains, predicting food demand, reducing food waste, and lowering food prices. AI-driven platforms can enable precision farming, using data to improve planting, watering, and harvesting techniques. By improving logistics and supply chain management, AI can ensure that food is distributed more efficiently, reducing costs for consumers, especially in underserved areas.

Improving Mental Health and Social Well-being

AI can help address the mental health crisis by providing low-cost, on-demand therapeutic resources, analyzing emotional patterns, and creating platforms for community support. It can also help identify societal risk factors for depression and anxiety and optimize intervention strategies. AI can be used to teach higher consciousness and develop emotional and mental mastery, like SoulTech's work.

Lowering the Cost of Pharmaceuticals

AI can streamline drug discovery and development by analyzing vast datasets to predict the effectiveness of new drugs and identify potential side effects faster than traditional methods. This can reduce R&D costs, which often lead to sky-high drug prices. AI can also help optimize distribution, ensuring that life-saving medications are delivered where they’re most needed without excessive markup, reducing consumer prices.

Combating Wealth Inequality

AI can reduce wealth inequality by providing tools for financial literacy, automating access to credit for underserved communities, and creating platforms for wealth redistribution through blockchain and decentralized finance (DeFi). AI-driven platforms can optimize welfare programs and reduce financial barriers for marginalized groups, helping bridge the wealth gap. These strategies would leverage AI to rebuild the American Dream by creating jobs, strengthening American manufacturing, and promoting high-quality American-made products. All while addressing key socio-political and economic issues, these strategies would help the country thrive in the 21st century.

It is time for a transformation! I can’t wait to see the before and after!
