The AI Economy

About This Project

The AI Economy initiative begins with a bold question: What if we got the economy right this time?

It offers a practical framework for rebuilding the economy—using tools, procedures, and support systems that empower all participants to take part in the process.

On top of this framework is a vision to bring people together, summarized in our whitepaper The GenAI Crisis: How You Can Help Shape the Future. This vision is a launching point for everyone from policymakers to entrepreneurs to everyday citizens who want to help shape the future instead of being shaped by it.

  • 00 The GenAI Crisis: How You Can Help Shape the Future
    Many people are worried about generative AI—and with good reason. But avoiding it won’t solve the problem. This series opens with a call to understand what’s happening, why it matters, and how you can be part of the solution.

  • 01 The AI Economy: What If We Got It Right This Time?
    AI is here. The question is whether we’ll repeat the mistakes of past tech waves—or build something better. This paper challenges us to rethink how we design the economy around people, not machines or monetary flow.

  • 02 AI and the Human Dream: Reinventing Education and the Economy for a New Era
    Generative AI allows for a richly personal experience—for both education and the economy. Beginning in school, and continuing throughout life, individuals can explore all options, “playing” around with concepts to discover what’s possible. And, by experimenting with what’s possible for individuals, we can explore what’s possible for the economy as a whole.
  • 03 Hyper-Growth: Education in the Age of AI
    Our current school system was built for a different era—and it shows. Today’s students need a model that supports creativity, initiative, and exponential growth. This paper introduces Empowered Education, a new approach designed to prepare learners for the AI-powered world ahead.
