A Civilization Beyond Jobs and Wages
As artificial intelligence, robotics, and automation transform work, millions are asking what happens to our jobs, our survival, and our place in the world.
As machines take on more human work, should our survival remain tied to jobs and wages?
Rebuilding Civilization for the Age of AI makes the case that the answer is no. It presents a new direction in which life’s essentials are guaranteed for everyone. A flourishing economy preserves choice and free enterprise. The living world is restored. It shows how these technologies can be governed with moral clarity and public purpose in the service of life and well-being for all.
It proposes an FDR-style 21st-Century New Deal that employs people in rebuilding as traditional jobs recede. With survival no longer tied to jobs and wages, we are free to pursue purpose, creativity, contribution, service, and work of our choosing.
The future is ours to build. Together.
