Building a world where no one has to work to survive
Post-Labor Economics
A movement exploring how society will function when AI, automation, and robotics can perform most productive work.
Our Mission
Post-Labor Economics exists to develop and promote frameworks for navigating humanity's transition from labor-based to ownership-based income. We believe that AI and automation will eliminate obligatory human labor within our lifetimes, and we're working to ensure this transition benefits everyone—not just the few.
Our goal is to build a world where no one has to work to survive, where income flows from ownership rather than wages, and where democratic institutions remain strong even as labor power diminishes.

Our Values
Pragmatic Optimism
We believe a better future is possible, but only if we actively build it. We focus on concrete mechanisms over ideology.
Inclusive Coalition
We build bridges between traditionally adversarial groups: workers and capitalists, left and right, technologists and humanists.
Intellectual Honesty
We engage objections seriously, acknowledge uncertainty, and update our views based on evidence.
Global Perspective
The transition to post-labor economics is a global challenge requiring diverse perspectives and solutions.
