Abundance Capitalism
From the Corporate Ladder to the Abundance Ladder in the Age of AI
By Boyd Cohen, PhD, with contributions from Ricky Zhang
How abundance reaches people who do not own the machines.
What the book is about
Exponential technologies are pushing the cost of intelligence, energy and production down. Longevity science is stretching how long we live and work. Together they make deflation-driven abundance possible.
Possible is not the same as shared. If the gains flow only to the people who own the machines, abundance for some looks like disruption for everyone else. The book asks how abundance reaches the people who do not own them, and what each of us can do to share in it.
The book covers
- Exponential technology, from AI to robotics
- Longevity and what longer lives mean for work and saving
- Deflation-driven abundance, and why falling prices can be good news
- Sound money, and savings no one can debase
- Careers on the Abundance Ladder, a ladder built on ownership instead of permission
The Abundance Ladder
Find your rung
The corporate ladder is breaking. The Abundance Ladder replaces climbing for permission with building ownership: hold, own and build, earn and save, toward a purpose of your own.
A framework by Boyd Cohen, PhD, and Ricky Zhang.
