What happens to the middle class when AI eats the job market faster than policy can respond? This episode unpacks the Tensor Economy — a working framework for routing AI-generated wealth back to the people instead of letting it concentrate in a handful of corporate hands. We walk through the three core mechanisms (Compute Dividend, Shared AI Equity, Automatic Stabilizers), the Market Access Lock that stops capital flight, and the Public Trust AI layer that disciplines private providers the same way municipal water keeps bottled water honest. Not socialism. Not communism. Capitalist infrastructure built for a post-labor era. If you want to understand what's coming and what stops it from going sideways, start here.
