Speech: The Price of Human Assets
My Speech at National Leverage Lab 2026 in Washington, DC

At the National Leverage Lab (the first conference for workplace abuse and accountability) I told a story about meeting OpenAI whistleblower , Suchir Balaji’s parents and how a line of mathematical thinking he pointed toward has influenced the way we are now trying to calculate the value of human input to the economy, bit by bit.
That question sits at the center of my work: if AI systems learn from human behavior, knowledge, correction, culture, and participation, how do we actually measure what people contributed?
This talk connects directly to Your Data, Their Wealth and to the research behind my work on pricing human input as a factor of production.
I’m releasing the full video here and through the podcast feed.
