Not all things are physical things. How much does it cost to have thousands of people click at images of cars for your AI model?

After all, money is nothing else but a token of work. The more money you have, the more work you can make other people do.

I think you're reaching. The things you're talking about have physical impacts. You can't run computers without building chips, developing power systems, and so on. Yes, things of value need not be inherently physical but there are no things that are not connected to the physical world in some form or another.

What I meant to say is "not all things are physical objects". Since you're still referring to physical objects like chips, power systems, and so on. Things that you can buy with money also be not-physical-objects, such as training data harvested from millions of human work-hours.
