A viral essay titled "The 2028 Global Intelligence Crisis" by James Van Geelen and Alap Shah outlines a potential "Ghost GDP" scenario where AI dramatically increases wealth for compute owners while collapsing real wage growth for workers. This could lead to an economy with high output but stagnant circulation, exacerbating wealth inequality.
