In an Age of AI, What Will Wealth Even Mean? | Sultan Ghaznawi | TEDxRiyadh
In "The Age of AI and the New Meaning of Wealth," I explore how artificial intelligence is transforming our understanding of wealth. In this talk, I raise the question: In an age of AI, what will wealth even mean? I trace the evolution of wealth from tangible assets like land and gold to the mechanical era of factories and the digital age of platforms. Now, we are entering the Intelligent era, where wealth is generated by systems that learn and adapt on our behalf.I identify three forces shaping this new landscape: the speed of compounding decisions, the democratization of sophistication, and the emerging value beyond capital. These forces highlight how AI can make wealth more accessible but also poses risks of inequality and bias. I propose three guiding principles—the Three A’s: Access, Agency, and Alignment—to ensure that AI benefits society as a whole.Ultimately, I argue that wealth in the AI era could become more inclusive and human-centered, but it requires a conscious effort to define it. The choice is ours, and the time to shape this future is now. The Managing Director and Chairman of Scene Holding , is a serial entrepreneur and investor in the technology and artificial intelligence sector. He has contributed to the success of several prominent tech companies and plays an active role in enhancing the entrepreneurship sector in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
