    Do you think the previous failures were due to a lack of computing power?

    From what I’ve read, it seemed more like corruption and politics. Doesn’t matter if you had the most powerful computer ever in that case right?

      The problem requires a vast army of bureaucrats to run the system, which is where the corruption comes from. Every additional human component of the system adds another layer vulnerability to bad actors. I think if they were automated away and rendered unnecessary, the central planning AI could run the economy with direct input from the masses. No need for bureaucrats.
