Age of Abundance: Quasi-Infinite Economy
What happened if the per capita income of each person was almost limitless? We would have a near (or quasi) infinite economy. This is what happens when technology, especially through digitization occurs.
In this video I discuss how we are entering an age where many technologies are expanding at a rapid rate. Things such as AI and robotics are gong to have a major impact upon economic productivity within the next decade. This means we will likely see an explosion of output, one that is unrivaled in history.
This means that we could see the income side of the income statement rising while the expense side decreases.

I had ABC, CBS, and NBC affiliates and a couple of Mexican channels. I watched them all.
Now there's like 25 channels with the digital broadcasts that I don't watch thanks to the abundance of content on the Internet.
The video discusses the concept of an almost unlimited per capita income leading to a near-infinite economy in the age of abundance. Task talks about the historical transition in the last century, including Industrial Revolution, post-World War II globalization, and technological advancements such as semiconductors. He delves into the idea of technological deflation and the impact of advancements like blockchain, cryptocurrency, declining battery costs, and AI on driving down expenses while increasing income potential. Task explores potential advancements in various fields like materials, robotics, and computing, envisioning a future where economic productivity is uncaptured by traditional metrics. He draws parallels between the evolution of television from a few channels to the abundance of video platforms today, reflecting on generational trends in media consumption. Task concludes by hinting at a follow-up video tying these concepts to cryptocurrency.
In detail, Task delves into the historical context of economic developments focusing on key milestones like the Industrial Revolution, post-World War II globalization, and technological advancements such as the introduction of semiconductors which catalyzed significant growth in per capita income over the years. He highlights the traditional economic metric of GDP and revenue, pointing out the limitations in capturing the impact of technological advancements through these metrics alone. Task introduces the concept of technological deflation and elaborates on Peter Diamandis's six Ds framework, underscoring the significance of demonetization in driving down costs across various industries.
Furthermore, Task discusses the transformative potential of emerging technologies like blockchain, cryptocurrency, declining battery costs, renewable energy, and AI in reshaping economic landscapes. He emphasizes the role of these advancements in increasing income potential while reducing expenses, citing examples from industries like music, video, and communication to illustrate the impact of digitization on cost structures. Task envisions a future where advancements in AI, computing, robotics, and material sciences could lead to a quasi-unlimited economy, fostering groundbreaking innovations and efficiencies across sectors.
Moreover, Task draws parallels between the evolution of television and the current proliferation of video platforms, emphasizing the generational shift in media consumption habits. He underscores the exponential potential of robotics in product manufacturing, outlining a scenario where robots build machines in an iterative process, leading to exponential growth in automation. Task concludes the video by hinting at a follow-up discussion on tying these concepts to cryptocurrency, suggesting a deeper exploration of the interplay between technological advancements and the financial landscape.
