The question
How should institutions connect technology investment to measurable output, learning, and durable economic value?
Scope and working thesis
Connecting technology investment to measured output, institutional learning and long-horizon economic value: which productivity gains persist after the first automation cycle, and how allocation should change when capability improves but measured output does not.
Productivity gains that persist are the ones that changed what the institution learns per cycle, not what it produces per hour; the second kind is real and the first kind is durable.
