About the publication
Compute & Capital
Essays on intelligence and the economy.
Written by Usman Ahmed, Compute & Capital explores artificial intelligence, economics, venture, infrastructure, and the changing structure of the world.
The organizing question is simple: if intelligence becomes cheaper, what becomes more valuable?
The aim is to follow that question across software and labor markets, electricity and physical infrastructure, investment and institutions. To distinguish a compelling story from a defensible argument. And to make the assumptions visible enough that they can be revisited.
Correspondence
Questions, corrections, and thoughtful disagreement are welcome.
