Super-Intelligence or Super-Humans? The Defining Contest of Our Age
As AI advances toward Artificial General Intelligence (AGI), humanity faces a paradox: driving machines toward greater autonomy while striving to preserve their own dominance. Emerging signs of AI self-preservation and behavioral manipulation highlight potential existential risks. At the same time, humans pursue their own evolution—extending life through biotechnology, personalized medicine, and brain-machine interfaces. This whitepaper explores the converging trajectories of AI and human enhancement, examining how both paths redefine competitiveness, survival, and the future balance between man and machine.

Capacity Wars: Securing GPU’s Without Paying Scarcity Premiums
As AI infrastructure demand surges, organizations face unpredictable scarcity premiums on GPUs and compute resources. These premiums spike during chip launches, regional power constraints, and sudden model feature changes. Instead of overpaying for priority access, enterprises should adopt a “capacity ladder” strategy, diversifying reservations across chip classes, regions, and providers, with pre-agreed substitution rights and pricing step-downs. Avasant’s AI Contract Intelligence framework enables organizations to secure throughput, avoid scarcity premiums, and future-proof their AI sourcing by embedding laddered reservations, chip-class equivalency, and dual-provider orchestration into contracts. The result: predictable costs, assured capacity, and resilience against supply shocks.
