**2025**

- [5886442-014](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/5886442-014) [mechanism/argued] -- Contesting the continuity view, the author argues that AI2AI is not a case of technological progress shifting the production possibility frontier outward as steam, electricity and the internet did, because those earlier shifts expanded the feasible set while preserving scarcity as the defining condition.
  > This is not simply a case of technological progress shifting the production-possibility frontier outward, as occurred with steam, electricity, or the internet. Those earlier shifts expanded the feasible set while preserving scarcity as the defining condition.

**2026**

- [6421319-040](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/6421319-040) [mechanism/argued] -- The AI2AI economy eliminates simultaneously and irreversibly the five constraints that defined economics for two centuries, namely scarcity of intelligence, bounded rationality, informational asymmetry, temporal latency, and positive transaction costs, and therefore the discipline must be re founded rather than extended.
  > The AI2AI economy eliminates all five simultaneously and irreversibly. When the defining conditions of a discipline disappear, the discipline itself must be re-founded.
