Isbn: 9798180406620 - capital without labor: how artificial intelligence is dismantling and rebuilding the rules of markets, money, labor, and economic power (agi coming soon) (5 resultados)

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. For all of economic history, capital needed labor to generate returns. That relationship is being severed. The rules governing markets, money, labor, and power were written for a world where human cognitive capacity was the binding constraint on economic output. Those rules-encoded in law, regulation, and institutional practice-are now encountering a technology that makes intelligence abundant, cheap, and tireless. The collision is not theoretical. It is happening in venture capital allocation decisions, central bank policy frameworks, commercial lending algorithms, labor markets, cryptocurrency infrastructure, and courtrooms simultaneously. Capital Without Labor is the account of that collision-what it is breaking, what it is building in its place, and who is positioned to gain or lose in the economy that emerges. Written by Lon Forehand-AI policy analyst, 24-year Congressional affairs veteran, and NASA policy expert-this is not a book about AI's economic potential. It is a book about the economic transformation already underway and the specific, consequential decisions being made right now that will determine whether the AI economy distributes its gains broadly or concentrates them catastrophically. What this book reveals: The capital is moving faster than the analysis. AI venture funding has created an investment architecture that looks nothing like prior technology cycles-the concentration, leverage, and time horizons are fundamentally different. Where the money goes determines what economy gets built. Central banks are navigating with instruments designed for a different era. The inflation signals and monetary mechanisms anchoring Federal Reserve policy were calibrated for a human-speed economy - one that no longer exists. The unequal frontier is the most urgent equity story in the AI economy. Small businesses and minority entrepreneurs are not receiving equal access to the tools reshaping competitive dynamics-and that gap is compounding faster than any prior technology adoption gap. A parallel financial system is being built without permission. Crypto, stablecoins, and decentralized finance are not primarily ideological projects - they are responses to the specific failures and exclusions of the existing financial infrastructure. Understanding what is being built outside regulated systems is essential to understanding where those systems are heading. Eight arguments about the economy being built around us: - This structural shift is categorically different from prior automation waves- The new architecture of AI capital is concentrating in ways that will define inequality- AI is rewriting the permission structure of finance and banking- Central bank tools were calibrated for a world that no longer exists- The jobs that remain after automation are not randomly distributed- Access to the AI economy is not evenly distributed-and the gap is widening- The legal system's collision with AI on copyright and liability has no settled outcome- The governance question is also an economic question - who regulates determines who wins Who this book is for: Investors whose models were built for a world AI has already left behind. Business owners navigating AI-enabled competition. Policy makers setting rules for markets moving faster than legislation. Workers trying to understand what the AI economy means for their wages. And anyone who wants to understand not just that the economy is changing - but how, in whose favor, and what the alternatives are. Capital Without Labor is the sixth book in the AGI Coming Soon series.
