Google DeepMind 经济学家：智能体爆发也可能只有 4%-5% GDP 增速
DeepMind 的 AGI 经济学总监说了个反直觉判断：智能体再多，GDP 也可能只有 4%-5% 增速，因为价格会被打下来。农业占比从 40% 掉到 2% 就是前车之鉴。做 AI 创业判断市场规模的人值得看看这条论证。
Google DeepMind AGI 经济学总监 Alex Imas 提出，即使出现数百万自主智能体构成的组织，经济增速仍可能停留在 4% 到 5% 区间。他的核心论点是：GDP 衡量的是花掉的钱而非生产出的实物量，当 AI 把生产成本压到接近零时，竞争会把价格打下来，产量爆炸但美元计的价值几乎不涨。
他用农业做类比：自动化后食品产量大幅上升，但农业在美国 GDP 中占比却从约 40% 降到 2%。这说明生产效率提升与 GDP 增速之间可以完全脱钩。
Imas 还指出，要实现两位数增长，需要买方有足够的购买力消化所有新增产出，否则价格会崩塌。这一观点对判断 AI 是否真能拉动宏观经济增速提供了重要参照。
Millions of AI agents, and growth could still sit at 4% to 5%
~ Google DeepMind Director of AGI Economics Alex Imas
"Let's say you have tons of autonomous organizations, millions of agents. There's a state of the world where you're still in like the 4% to 5% growth zone."
Because, GDP measures dollars spent, not how much stuff gets made, and when AI makes something nearly free to produce, competition drives its price down.
So output can explode while its dollar value barely grows, just as farming went from about 40% of GDP to 2% after automation even though food production soared. Double-digit growth would also need buyers with enough money to purchase all that output without prices collapsing.
