AI may democratise capability without democratising agency. The same tools can produce very different outcomes depending on confidence, knowledge, networks, opportunity and power.
Creation is becoming democratised, but when everyone can make more, creation itself becomes less scarce. The advantage shifts towards knowing what is worth making.
AI is changing the relationship between a person and possibility. Universities may need to develop graduates who can recognise problems, initiate action and create opportunities — not simply find work.
AI is making capability abundant. The question is no longer only what AI enables us to do, but what happens to us when extraordinary capability becomes available to almost everyone.
