Abstract

Addressing the evolution of capital morphology under the conditions of the AI era and post�material abundance, this paper proposes a unified transdisciplinary theoretical framework. This framework integrates Prigogine’s Dissipative Structure theory, Tononi’s Integrated Information Theory (IIT), and macro-capital dynamics to reveal the underlying physical and social mecha�nisms of capital reconstruction. Originating from long-term observations of fringe innovation and regulatory arbitrage, the research extracts the core ontological proposition: “Nomenclature Perishes, Verbs Persist,” deriving a dual “Physical-Will” lever that governs capital evolution. Furthermore, referencing recent research on wealth distribution condensates, the frame�work explores the “RJ Condensation” effect—a driver of extreme inequality—and its physical intervention mechanisms. By constructing an Evolutionary Potential Function, this paper iden�tifies “Critical Slowing Down” signals preceding system phase transitions, demonstrating that under the conditions of post-material abundance and AI symbiosis, a dynamic equilibrium between physical system optimization and willful value orientation is achievable. As an ex�ploration in falsifiable sociophysics, the study provides real-time validation using macro data from 2023–2026, offering a framework for civilizational dimension-lifting in the AI era.
