Post-Labor Economics

from Technoprogressive Hub Podcast Hosted by James J Hughes

Post-Labor Economics With David Shapiro David Shapiro is a futurist, author, social media producer, and one of the most prolific popularizers of post-labor economics — the argument that accelerating automation isn't a bug to be managed but a civilizational transition to be designed. Drawing on ideas ranging from universal basic income and sovereign wealth funds to the radical deflationary potential of AI-driven production, he makes the case that we are approaching a world where human labor is simply no longer the primary mechanism for distributing prosperity.
