AI's Economic Role Shifts Focus to Permission and Tokenization of Human Skills
As AI systems increasingly act as economic agents, control over their permissions and authority becomes crucial, shifting focus from intelligence to delegated rights. Simultaneously, AI tokenizes human skills by breaking expertise into measurable units called tokens, which are priced and rented by companies controlling AI infrastructure. This transformation raises questions about who holds economic power in the AI-driven economy, emphasizing the importance of permission and ownership over AI-generated work rather than just technological capability.
