# Super Intelligence Economy **Entity class:** Economic system concept **Domain:** Artificial intelligence / science / political economy **Maturity:** Developed ## Definition **Super Intelligence Economy** The super-intelligence economy is a production system in which cognition can be instantiated at machine scale, creating the functional equivalent of immense populations of digital workers. ## Mechanism and Consequence Its economic consequences arise from replication speed, coordination, and falling marginal cost: intelligence becomes abundant while compute, energy, ownership, trust, and physical production become the decisive constraints. ## Relationships - [[wiki/AI Economy|AI Economy]] - [[wiki/Machine Succession|Machine Succession]] - [[wiki/AI Price-Performance|AI Price-Performance]] - [[wiki/AI Infrastructure|AI Infrastructure]] ## Source Dossiers - [[research/AI Is Now So Good They Will Pay You to Quit|AI Is Now So Good They Will Pay You to Quit]] - [[research/Super Intelligence Week Index of Statements from the White House Luncheon|Super Intelligence Week Index of Statements from the White House Luncheon]] - [[research/Jensen Pushes Back on Doomers Moonshots Live|Jensen Pushes Back on Doomers Moonshots Live]] ## Simple Reminders, Quotations, and Thoughts > "The SI—superintelligence—is, they're saying, bigger than the Industrial Revolution, far bigger than the internet." > **— Donald Trump**, *America.gov launch, September 2026* [[reminders/AI Economy/Superintelligence May Be Bigger Than the Industrial Revolution and the Internet by Donald Trump|Superintelligence May Be Bigger Than the Industrial Revolution and the Internet by Donald Trump]] > "I am a big fan of ‘superintelligence’ as opposed to ‘AGI’ because Nick Bostrom’s term emphasizes that it is simply more intelligence and, in some sense, demystifies AGI. We are going to live—to the extent we do not already—in a world with the cognitive equivalent of many trillions of human beings, an Earth and solar system with the equivalent population of many trillions of people. A better cognitive frame asks what a solar system filled with trillions of humans would look like economically, socially, and scientifically. ‘Superintelligence’ connotes that in a way ‘AGI’ does not." > **— Alexander Wissner-Gross**, *MOONSHOTS Live, September 25, 2026* [[reminders/Machine Succession/Superintelligence Means Trillions of Cognitive Workers by Alexander Wissner-Gross|Superintelligence Means Trillions of Cognitive Workers by Alexander Wissner-Gross]]
