I don't know that "legally" has much to do in here. The bars to "open an account", "move money around", "hire and fire people", "create and participate in contracts" go from stupid minimal to pretty low.

"Legally" will have to mop up now and then, but for now the basics are already in place.

Opening accounts, moving money, hiring, and firing is labor. You're confusing capital with money management; the wealthy already pay people to do the work of growing their wealth.
> AGI can't legally own anything at the moment.

I was responding to this. Yes an AGI could hire someone to do the stuff - but she needs money, hiring and contract kinds of thing - for that. And once she can do that, she probably doesn't need to hire someone to do it since she is already doing it. This is not about capital versus labor or money management. This is about agency, ownership and AGI.

(With legality far far down the list.)
