AI Wealth Managers and Smart Contracts = Dead People Controlling Money Forever

Technical deep dive into posthumous autonomous wealth management systems. The stack: Hadoop/Kafka for data processing, LSTM/Deep Q-Learning for trading decisions, Solidity smart contracts for enforcement, and perpetual trust laws (now legal in 27 US states). The scary part: it actually works. AI funds outperformed humans by 13.66% during the 2022 bear market. Combined with smart contracts that can monitor beneficiary behavior through data brokers and adjust distributions accordingly, you get what the author calls "techno-feudal necrocracy." Includes actual Solidity code, risk management frameworks from HFT, and case studies of algorithmic trading disasters. The technical capability exists today - the question is whether we should build it.
