What Happens When Intelligence Is No Longer Valuable?
For most of my life, I have lived in a world in which knowing things mattered.
That may sound obvious. Of course knowledge matters. But I mean something more specific. Knowledge was scarce enough to create value in itself.
If you knew how a computer worked, you were valuable because most people did not. If you could write software, understand a telecommunications network, analyse a complex organisation, interpret a regulation or navigate a large technological system, that knowledge differentiated you from others.
