What if AI is not just a tool, but the core engine of a new global operating system?
The Greed Factor: AI = Semantic Simulator and The New World Order argues that artificial intelligence is not simply about chatbots, productivity tools, or clever apps. It is about building a vast semantic simulator that can model, predict, and influence human behaviour at scale-across finance, politics, media, and everyday life.
The Greed Factor: AI = Semantic Simulator and The New World Order argues that artificial intelligence is not simply about chatbots, productivity tools, or clever apps. It is about building a vast semantic simulator that can model, predict, and influence human behaviour at scale-across finance, politics, media, and everyday life.
Drawing on his experience at the intersection of business, data platforms, and academia, Assoc. Prof. Radoslav Kardzhiev takes you far beyond the usual hype. Instead of treating AI as magic, he follows the money, the infrastructure, and the incentives behind it. How do cloud platforms, telecoms, banks, regulators, and Big Tech quietly align? What happens when the same systems that automate work also automate perception, consent, and even dissent?
This book connects:
- the rise of large-scale data platforms and real-time surveillance;
- the financialisation of everything from energy to healthcare;
- green transition policies and digital identity frameworks;
- and the subtle ways in which narrative, regulation, and infrastructure work together.
Kardzhiev does not ask you to blindly accept his conclusions. On the contrary-his approach is to provoke, question, and argue. Many of the ideas in this book were stress-tested in debates with senior engineers, IT leaders, and academics who challenged assumptions, demanded evidence, and pushed back on easy answers. The result is a work that is both accessible and intellectually demanding: clear enough for the informed reader, but rigorous enough to make seasoned professionals stop and think.
In this book you will:
- see AI reframed as a semantic simulator rather than a thinking machine;
- understand how data infrastructure quietly shapes power, policy, and profit;
- explore the links between Big Tech, Big Finance, Big Pharma, and global governance;
- reconsider what freedom, choice, and democracy mean in a fully datafied world;
- gain a vocabulary and framework to think critically about where AI is really taking us.
The Greed Factor is not a comfort read. It is a map of a terrain most people sense exists, but rarely see described clearly: the layer where code, capital, and control converge. Whether you work in technology, policy, business, or are simply a citizen who refuses to outsource thinking to algorithms, this book invites you to look behind the interface-and decide for yourself what comes next.
