Post-AGI Economy Model: AI Agents as Producers and Consumers

A new paper proposes a model for a post-AGI economy where AI and robotic agents, owned by corporations, act as both producers and consumers. This inter-corporate economy could achieve maximal growth without human consumption, shifting the growth bottleneck from human demography to fabrication and energy capture. The paper suggests that in such a scenario, GDP and human welfare would completely decouple, making ownership policy the primary determinant of human survival and welfare. AI

IMPACT This research suggests a fundamental shift in economic paradigms post-AGI, where human consumption becomes irrelevant and ownership policy becomes paramount.

RANK_REASON The cluster contains an academic paper discussing theoretical economic models post-AGI.
