One thesis about what comes next. I'm Thorsten Meyer — a futurist and post-labor economist based near Munich, Germany. I have spent thirty years in ICT, and I now spend my days on one question: *what happens to income, work, and ownership when intelligence becomes cheap?* ## The publisher I publish the StrongMocha network — more than 500 brands and magazines, run day-to-day by [DojoClaw](https://dojoclaw.com/), an AI content engine built in-house. The network is also my laboratory: in 2025 OpenAI handed me the 10 Billion Token Award; in 2026 the network has already passed 80 billion tokens across Anthropic, OpenAI, Kimi, and other model providers. When I write about AI economics, the numbers come from my own infrastructure. ## The author My latest book, [Economics After Labor](https://books.apple.com/de/book/economics-after-labor/id6781385695) (2026), asks what AI changes for income, work, and ownership. It follows the Global Mindset trilogy — *Navigating the AI Revolution*, *Cultural Intelligence*, *The AI Bifurcation* — and three standalone titles. ## The builder The thesis is not just written down; it is shipped. Eight ventures across three desks — publishing & ideas, defense & analysis, and vertical AI for real-world trades.
