Money is literally made of time and embodies a promise based on trust. Just as information has no meaning, so money has no value, but it realizes it when it offers the opportunity to exercise the will of human beings. Money is power (or Dynamis), life is act (or Energheia). With the arrival of Artificial Intelligence that generates content without value and without will, the economy is transformed. Ai invades the landscape of possible actions and calls into question the promise that lies at the heart of the economic and financial system. It is a challenge that can only be answered by exercising the human capacity to face the absurd, that is, by creating new domains that are not included in what is already known and capable of opening the way to dimensions that are immeasurable today.
