In the era of artificial intelligence, our relationship with wealth and work could profoundly change. According to the CEO of Microsoft AI, intelligence will soon become a resource as valuable as money. Access to intelligent tools is already transforming the way we create value.
Artificial intelligence is gradually redefining our daily lives. Tools like ChatGPT for writing texts, or even generating images that go beyond reality, or Copilot for coding software, have become accessible to everyone in just a few clicks. This movement is accelerating and is beginning to revolutionize the way we work, learn, and even communicate. In this context, access to this technology could become as essential as access to the Internet today.
In a recent interview, Mustafa Suleyman, CEO of Microsoft AI, shared his vision of this transformation. According to him, artificial intelligence will make access to knowledge and action as simple as having a support team around you. This intelligence, once limited to a few experts, will become abundant and cheap, allowing everyone to carry out their projects more easily and quickly than before. The CEO of Microsoft AI believes that intelligence will be the new currency of tomorrow. For the leader, intelligence will soon have a role similar to that of money. Having powerful AI will make it possible to bring ideas to life, solve problems, and create value, without necessarily having significant financial resources. However, he points out that money will remain essential for accessing physical goods such as food, energy, or housing. But for everything related to access to services, it could become the primary resource, accessible to a greater number of people.
Mustafa Suleyman imagines a future where everyone benefits from a “smart universal income” thanks to generative AI. This revolution would allow everyone to innovate, undertake or train without depending solely on a traditional income. With tools such as personal assistants, content generators or predictive analysis systems, intelligence would become an economic lever accessible to all. By giving If everyone has the means to act more effectively, it could profoundly disrupt our global economic model and transform our societies much faster than we imagine.
Microsoft AI CEO Mustafa Suleyman says the future isn't UBI. It's UBP — universal basic provision: abundant intelligence as the new currency.
You won't need more money, because knowledge won't be something you buy.
