Is investing automation proof? I'm not talking about investing against algorithms that just trade intraday off technical analysis, I mean like with +1 year holding periods or even just buying the s&p 500 etf. I don't forsee how it could become defunct because if so, the world would collapse into tribalism. Thats also why I'm gonna invest 0.5% of my money into prepper gear and weapons

Automation is an overrated trend, especially in finance. It is a trend and will shape our future, but not to the extent people believe.
It is humans miscalculate prices, overreact and are biased. If you take out the human factor you reduce profit opportunities.
Algorithms will only be profitable on the long run if there are only a few of them. More algorithms means more competetion and more competition means less profit.
Another big factor is that every overcomplicated system is condemned to failure. History proved this countless times.

Automation will maintain its top meme status for as long as interest rates are artificially held low by a fed trying to postpone the next big market bust. Low interest rates means low cost of capital means big IT spend on every kind of automation possible to replace OpEx with capex. This can't go on forever, interest rates will rise but property values will tank when that happens. We're fucked the end is near so yeah buy guns and ammo
