The Trillion-Dollar AI Layer: Maintaining Truth Across Agents and Time
tallmetommy · x · 2026-08-26
The author argues that while AI is rapidly solving intelligence, the next trillion-dollar layer lies in maintaining Provenance, Authority, and Continuity:
- Provenance: Proves where a state came from.
- Authority: Defines what it may do.
- Continuity: Determines whether the next state is legitimate.
As intelligence moves across agents, systems, and time, keeping truth, authority, and control intact is the layer the author is building.
