🌎 Citrini Research just dropped a provocative thesis: ⚠ We’re heading toward a “2028 Global Intelligence Crisis.” ⚠ ➡ The core idea? AI is making intelligence abundant — and the global economy isn’t built for that. Here’s the breakdown 👇 1/🧠 AI agents are removing friction everywhere. *By 2026–27: • Autonomous AI handles shopping, taxes, insurance, legal work • Commerce shifts to automated optimization • Industries built on complexity & information asymmetry collapse 2/💼 White-collar displacement accelerates. AI replaces knowledge work → Displaced professionals move down the wage ladder → Labor supply rises → Wages compress across sectors. *This spreads beyond tech. 3/🏢 SaaS & private credit are exposed. Many leveraged software deals assumed perpetual growth. But AI reduces demand for service-heavy SaaS. *Results: • Downgrades • Defaults • Risk repricing 4/🏠 Households weaken quietly. Prime borrowers still pay mortgages… But they’re tapping savings & credit. Income compression → Spending slows → Debt-to-income rises. 5/ 🔁 A negative loop forms: AI → layoffs → lower income → weaker demand → more automation → repeat. At the same time: Income stress → tighter credit → weaker wealth effect → slower economy. 6/ 🏛 Governments face structural strain. Tax systems rely on labor income. AI shifts income toward capital & compute. Less payroll tax. More pressure on safety nets. ⚠ The big idea: For 200 years, human intelligence was scarce. Now it isn’t. The report argues we’re entering a painful repricing as “intelligence premium” unwinds. Not necessarily collapse — but transition. Agree or not, the thesis is clear: AI isn’t just a tech cycle. It’s a macroeconomic restructuring event. Worth thinking about. *Link: citriniresearch.com/p/2028gic

Peter Steinberger is joining OpenAI to drive the next generation of personal agents. He is a genius with a lot of amazing ideas about the future of very smart agents interacting with each other to do very useful things for people. We expect this will quickly become core to our product offerings. OpenClaw will live in a foundation as an open source project that OpenAI will continue to support. The future is going to be extremely multi-agent and it's important to us to support open source as part of that.




Stopping local government from gold-plating net zero requirements shows @SteveReedMP’s determination to get more homes built – but there is still more to do. New by me @unherd. unherd.com/newsroom/strip…
