Adjacent-and-entangled: Progress Studies (Cowen/Collison 2019), Works in Progress (Stripe), Institute for Progress (Watney/Stapp — immigration, biosecurity, metascience), Roots of Progress, Ezra Klein & Derek Thompson's 'Abundance' (2025), YIMBY. Open Phil built a $120M Abundance & Growth Fund (2025) with Collison money — American Prospect documented the 'nine-figure Silicon Valley-funded abundance movement' (June 2026). Shares EA's technocratic DNA while rejecting doom.
