"What happens when GDP breaks?"

In Part 2 of our AI series, we move beyond theory — and into the economic quake that's already rumbling beneath our feet.

This isn't about the future of work. It's about what happens when work… just isn't needed anymore.

We unpack the uncomfortable questions most people aren't asking — and why AI is set to break the very foundations of our economic system.

Here's what we explore:
When capital no longer needs labour — how does labour get capital?
The ripple effects of AI-driven deflation
What a post-labour economy could look like (and what that means for you)
The moment when GDP, as we know it, stops making sense

If you've been looking for an explanation of AI & the future of the economy, this is it.

This isn't doom and gloom. But it is a wake-up call.

Because once the disruption starts… it won't wait for you to catch up.
