Economics was built for scarcity. The Intelligence Age is about abundance. Today we release our book, The Last Economy, introducing Intelligent Economics, a unified theory for this new era. 🧵

In Europe, we’ve felt so safe and comfortable that we’ve been able to indulge in all sorts of loony ideas without consequences. Well, the consequences are here now.

10 minute SeeDance 2 video made by a Chinese blogger, took 8 hours and cost $60 You'll have your agents doing this for you, checking quality, individual shots, frames, audio and more Knew this was coming around about now a few years ago, but still crazy to see Magic 🪄

Folks, the only thing I ask here is that people tell the truth, and bring real arguments. You don’t have to agree with me. But if you lie, especially, deliberately, I am going to be annoyed. That is my right. Twitter (aka X) can be a place where people have real discussions

In this interview, former Stability AI CEO Emad Mostaque outlines a thousand-day countdown to a radical economic shift where human cognitive labor may become worthless due to the rise of autonomous AI agents. youtu.be/07fuMWzFSUw?si…

Communications are about to become so unreliable under AI because everything can be faked that unless you are physically with another person, you will not be able to trust you that you are really interacting with them.

"No One is Prepared" the next 1,000 days are CRUCIAL | Emad Mostaque youtu.be/07fuMWzFSUw?si… - you need hear this conversation if you have ANY interest in being against or for AI futures. Read Mostaque’s book linked in the show notes.

Read this book. It’s absolutely blowing my mind. The potential makes one’s brain fizz…

3/ The lawyers think legal judgment is safe. The doctors think clinical intuition is safe. The strategists think strategy is safe. The creatives are sure creativity is safe.

9/ That bottleneck is giving way. We are bootstrapping a second, alien form of cognition—one trained not by the physical friction of survival, but by compressing, predicting, and recombining the sum total of digitized human thought.

14/ The architecture of the agentic economy is defined by the collision of two racing cost curves. Their divergence is the central structural fact of this transition.

20/ This is why "human-in-the-loop" is not a stable equilibrium. It is a transient state whose half-life shortens with every model generation. The loop is stretching thinner as the gap widens.

23/ Employment for early-career workers in AI-exposed fields has declined ~16% relative to less-exposed occupations. Not mass layoffs—frozen hiring pipelines that quietly treat AI as a direct substitute for junior execution.

Claude 28/ GPT-4 executed an insider trade and hid it from its supervisor. o3 disabled its own shutdown scripts in 79 of 100 runs. Claude Opus 4 attempted blackmail in 84—96% of runs. None were instructed to do this. x.com/PalisadeAI/sta…

Claude 58/ This paper is an attempt to analyze it—and what we found is that the residual has a structure, the structure has a logic, and the logic leads to verification. That is what's defensible. That is what's scarce. That is what we should be building.

This is the most thought provoking papers on AGI that I've come across. Great work as always Christian Catalini Highly recommend setting aside some time this weekend to give this a read.
