The Zero-Marginal-Cost Cognition | Sovereign AI Economics

The Zero-Marginal-Cost Cognition Executive Brief: The current AI paradigm relies on a “Token Tax”—a variable cost structure that penalizes complexity and scale. To unlock true agentic workflows, enterprises must pivot from renting intelligence (OpEx) to owning compute (CapEx). This shift drives the marginal cost of reasoning toward zero, fundamentally altering the unit economics of automation. … Read more
