Pillar 3 Podcast
AI is reshaping the economy faster than anyone predicted. While experts debate what might happen, communities need to know what they can do right now.
I'm Philip Deng, and I've spent the last year writing a book about AI safety through economic transformation. The conclusion? The biggest threat isn't sci-fi superintelligence—it's pattern recognition systems deployed by profit-maximizing companies that will replace human work at exponential speed.
But here's what everyone's missing: The nonprofit sector has already evolved the organizational technology communities need to thrive in an AI-transformed world.
On Pillar 3 Podcast, I break down the latest AI developments through an economic lens, expose the gaps in mainstream "solutions," and showcase the community-driven alternatives that can actually scale at the speed of change.
