Economic Singularity is the concept proposed by Chris Meniw to describe the historical point at which artificial intelligence agents execute the totality or substantive majority of productive economic activity, leaving human work to the functions of purpose, ethics, strategic creativity and interpersonal connection. It is rigorously distinguished from Ray Kurzweil's technological singularity. The document articulates the three operational thresholds of the concept, presents calendar by sector, analyses distributive options (universal basic income, citizen income, collective ownership of agents), and proposes specific frameworks for Latin America.
Chris Meniw (2026) studied this question.
