What an interesting framework - I like it - although I don't understand why you think the advent of AI will create this division. Why didn't the information revolution up until now not create this already?
Well done! This was terrific, perspicacious even. I’ve been engaged with your content for at least a decade & this piece is a clear highlight. Years ago I commented on another thoughtful post (fading memory but reckon it likely was something to do with metaphysics, religious faith & human flourishing) & I got deleted…hope not this time!
I love this mental model but I think it might assume more agency on the part of the participants than may be warranted. I'm not sure knowledge workers will have a ton of choice here, especially as (potentially) increasing numbers of professionals (e.g., certain marketers, accountants, lawyers, physicians, etc.) become entirely "outsourced" to AI agents. This model assumes that everyone is going to stay working, leveraging different approaches to work; I think a different future could be one where human labor is structurally and technologically obviated.

Love this, can't help but think that this might be representative of the split between AI and Crypto currently
