Future Asset Forum
What becomes valuable when intelligence becomes abundant?
Intelligence got 280x cheaper in two years. A cricket team got 16x more expensive. Same story.
- 280xcheaper intelligence, in two years

AI makes things cheap. That makes some things priceless
- Sport
- Entertainment
- Travel
- Identity
- Experiences
- Search and booking
- Buying and paying
- Work and production
- Finance and admin
Agents take the chores. The time and money saved goes to the things you can't make more of.
Sport, music, travel, fandom, experiences. And new rails are letting people own a piece of them.
In one line
AI makes utility abundant. Human desire makes culture scarce. New rails make scarcity ownable.
That's the whole thesis. The forum is about what follows from it.
Six questions. No product keynotes
The people building AI, the people who own what it can't copy, and the capital in between. One stage, each answering from where they sit.
If AI makes intelligence cheap, what becomes truly scarce?
When AI does the chores, where do our time and money go?
When an agent books, buys and pays for you, who gives it a wallet?
Can capital move as fast as intelligence?
Why are a cricket franchise, a festival and a safari the same kind of asset?
Should fans own what they love?
- AI and agent founders
