Quantum Economics: When the Rules of Linear Economics Stop Working (Part I)

The article presents the concept of "Quantum Economics", a new economic paradigm in which intelligence, technology and capital can be scaled independently of labor and organizational size, where multiple possibilities coexist, new forms of abundance and scarcity, and less linear relationships between resources, production and value. The author identifies four fundamental transformations: the separation between production and work made possible by AI and robotics, intelligence as a scalable production factor, the inversion of the logic of deciding before executing to experimenting before deciding, and the coexistence of extreme abundance with new forms of scarcity. The convergence between AI, quantum technologies, biotechnology and digital infrastructures is presented as the multiplier that enables and accelerates these breaks in traditional economic relations.
