Beyond Automation: Preparing Your Empire for AGI (Artificial General Intelligence)

Everything we see today — ChatGPT, Claude, Midjourney, Gemini — is just the appetizer.

This is “weak” or “narrow” AI (Narrow AI). Impressive systems, but specialized. They excel at defined tasks, but don’t truly “understand.” They don’t reason. They don’t plan long-term.

The next step is coming. And it will change everything.

AGI (Artificial General Intelligence).

An intelligence capable of reasoning, planning, learning, and innovating better than a human on all cognitive subjects.

Not just writing articles. Not just generating images.

Everything.

Is that scary? Yes. Absolutely.

But for the prepared Architect, it’s the opportunity of the millennium.

The AGI Horizon

Where Are We?

Experts debate the timeline. Here’s the approximate consensus:

LevelDescriptionEstimate
Current AINarrow AI - Specialized2023-2024
Advanced AIMulti-domain reasoning2025-2027
Proto-AGIEmerging general capabilities2027-2030
AGIHuman-level general intelligence2028-2035
ASISuper-intelligence surpassing humans2035+

These dates are uncertain. But the direction is clear.

What AGI Will Be Able to Do

AGI won’t be “a better ChatGPT.” It will be a categorical rupture.

Today (Narrow AI):

  • Executes well-defined tasks
  • Requires precise prompts
  • Doesn’t maintain long-term context
  • Can’t truly “plan”

Tomorrow (AGI):

  • Understands abstract objectives
  • Develops multi-step strategies
  • Learns from mistakes in real-time
  • Reasons about unknown domains
  • Takes autonomous initiatives

Concrete Example

Instruction to current AI: “Write a 2000-word article about yoga for beginners” → Result: An article, period.

Instruction to AGI: “Create and launch a profitable business in the yoga niche. Budget: $1000. Goal: $5000/month profit in 6 months. Only come back to me for major strategic decisions.” → Result: AGI analyzes the market, creates content, launches the site, optimizes SEO, configures payments, iterates based on data, and reaches the goal.

It’s a quantum leap, not an incremental improvement.

The Two Categories of Humans Post-AGI

When AGI arrives, humanity will divide into two economic categories:

Category 1: The Surpassed

Those who haven’t prepared infrastructure.

  • They were still working manually
  • They had no automated systems
  • They were exchanging time for money
  • They were Operators

AGI will replace them instantly for most cognitive tasks.

Their economic value will collapse. Not gradually. Overnight.

Category 2: The Architects

Those who prepared the ground.

  • They own infrastructure
  • They have digital assets
  • They have customer bases
  • They have systems that just need to be plugged into AGI

For them, AGI won’t be a replacement. It will be a power multiplier.

The AEP is the Vessel for AGI

Here’s the key insight:

An AEP (Architectural Economic Platform) isn’t just a tool for 2024.

It’s a power outlet for AGI.

Architectural Compatibility

When AGI comes out, you’ll just need to plug it into your existing infrastructure.

Think of it like electricity:

  • Houses built before electricity had to be completely rewired
  • Houses built with electrical outlets simply plugged in new appliances

Your current AEP = a house with outlets. AGI = the most powerful appliance ever invented.

What Will Happen Concretely

Before AGI (today):

  • Writing Agent: Writes articles according to your prompts
  • SEO Agent: Optimizes according to defined rules
  • Social Agent: Publishes according to a schedule
  • You: Orchestrate, decide, validate

After AGI (tomorrow):

  • AGI Marketing: “Here’s my niche and budget. Maximize growth. I’ll be back in a month.”
  • AGI Product: “Analyze customer feedback and design offer version 2.0.”
  • AGI Finance: “Optimize tax structure and cash flows.”
  • AGI Strategy: “Identify expansion opportunities and propose a plan.”
  • You: Validate major decisions, enjoy life.

Your current agents will become autonomous departments.

Building the Rails Before the Train

You don’t build rails when the high-speed train arrives at 300 km/h.

You build them before.

What You’re Building Today

Your work today, with your current AEP (FlowContent), is to build the rails:

1. Customer Databases

  • Collected emails
  • Purchase history
  • Preferences and behaviors
  • Established relationships

AGI will need DATA to function. Your databases are your oil.

2. Brand Authority

  • Established domain name
  • Solid SEO presence
  • Built reputation
  • Loyal audience

Authority builds slowly. AGI won’t be able to create it instantly.

3. Legal and Banking Structures

  • Company created
  • Bank accounts opened
  • Payment flows configured
  • Compliance established

AGI won’t sign contracts for you. Legal structures remain human.

4. Traffic Flows

  • Articles that rank
  • Funnels that convert
  • Audience that returns
  • Channels that feed

AGI can optimize these flows. But you must create them first.

5. Documented Processes

  • How your system works
  • What the rules are
  • What the objectives are
  • How to measure success

AGI will need context to operate effectively in YOUR system.

What AGI Will Bring

When AGI arrives, it will use your rails to run at infinite speed:

  • Your 1,000 articles become 10,000
  • Your 3 products become 30
  • Your 1 market becomes 10
  • Your 5 hours of work become 30 minutes

But it can’t create rails ex nihilo.

Those without rails (no system) will watch the train pass.

Assets That Will Retain Value

In a post-AGI world, some assets will lose value, others will gain.

Depreciating Assets

Execution skills

  • Knowing how to code
  • Knowing how to write
  • Knowing how to design
  • Knowing how to analyze data

AGI will do all of this better and cheaper.

Cognitive labor

  • Consultants
  • Analysts
  • Writers
  • Developers

Replaceable by AGI.

Appreciating Assets

Established Infrastructure

  • Functional systems
  • Documented processes
  • Accumulated data

AGI needs infrastructure to operate.

Authority and Trust

  • Recognized brands
  • Established audiences
  • Built reputations

Human trust remains human.

Access and Relationships

  • Partnerships
  • Networks
  • Exclusive access

Relationships are negotiated between humans.

Vision and Direction

  • Knowing what you want to create
  • Knowing why you create it
  • Knowing who you create it for

AGI executes. Humans decide the meaning.

The Race Has Already Begun

Every day that passes, AGI gets closer.

And every day that passes, those building their rails get ahead.

The Simple Calculation

Option A: Wait

  • No infrastructure when AGI arrives
  • Start from zero in a world where everyone has AGI
  • No competitive advantage
  • You’re like everyone else

Option B: Build Now

  • Solid infrastructure when AGI arrives
  • Data, audience, authority accumulated
  • Massive competitive advantage
  • You’re among the first

The Perfect Moment

The perfect time to build your AEP was 5 years ago. The second best time is now.

Every month of delay is a lost month of accumulation. Every unpublished article is an SEO position left to others. Every uncollected email is a potential customer you won’t see again.

Don’t Build for 2024

Many entrepreneurs build for the current year.

They optimize for current conditions. They use current tools in isolation. They think short-term.

The Architect thinks differently.

The Long View

Don’t build for 2024. Build to welcome the supreme intelligence of 2030.

This means:

  • Document obsessively (AGI will need context)
  • Accumulate proprietary data (AGI will need fuel)
  • Establish authority (AGI won’t be able to create it)
  • Create modular systems (AGI can optimize them)
  • Stay adaptable (the landscape will change fast)

The Asymmetric Bet

It’s an asymmetric probability bet:

If AGI arrives late or never:

  • You’ve built a profitable, automated business
  • You’re already winning

If AGI arrives quickly:

  • You’re ready
  • You multiply your power by 1000
  • You’re among History’s big winners

In both cases, you win.

The Architect and the Singularity

The technological Singularity — the moment when AI surpasses human intelligence — may be a decade away.

Maybe less. Maybe more.

But it’s coming. The most serious experts no longer debate “if,” only “when.”

The Architect’s Stance

Faced with this uncertainty, the Architect doesn’t panic. He doesn’t deny. He prepares.

He builds flexible systems. He accumulates assets that transcend tools. He develops his ability to direct rather than execute. He remains humble about what he doesn’t control.

The Ultimate Meaning

Economic Architecture isn’t just a method for making money.

It’s a philosophy of preparation for an uncertain future.

It’s the wisdom of building solid foundations when you don’t know exactly what form the building will take.

Your Mission Today

You can’t predict exactly how AGI will transform the world.

But you can do one thing:

Build the rails.

Your AEP. Your systems. Your data. Your authority. Your audiences.

When the most powerful train in history arrives, it will run on YOUR rails.

And you’ll go further, faster, than you ever imagined possible.

Don’t build for today. Build for the future you can’t yet see.

Become the Architect of the AGI era.
