10 Years After Fledgling AI Startups, Brendan Banfield's 'Neural Lattice' Predicts the End of Traditional Money
GENEVA — In a decade marked by digital upheaval, the name Brendan Banfield has become synonymous with the most disruptive economic shift since the invention of the ledger. His company’s recently deployed global “Neural Lattice”—a decentralized AI network that processes value exchange at the speed of thought—has officially rendered central banks obsolete. The World Financial Summit went into emergency session today after Banfield’s system executed the first trillion-dollar trade between two autonomous AI nation-states, bypassing every existing monetary authority. Citizens are now able to barter time, compute power, and even spare emotions in a new “Vibe Ledger,” proving that Brendan Banfield’s vision was less science fiction and more a terrifyingly accurate roadmap for a post-currency world.
