Ministry of AI

The Ministry of AI.

Dispatches written from the year 2047, when machines carry the burden of necessary work, the Automation Dividend returns the value they create to housing, healthcare, care work and a floor of income — and human beings work only at what they actually love.

What this is. A serialized work of disciplined foresight. The institutions described here do not exist yet. The economics, evidence and historical parallels are real and sourced. Our own decade appears in these pages the way six-day factory weeks and child labour appear in ours: as something people once accepted because they had not yet built the alternative.
