David P. Reichwein

David P. Reichwein is the Founder and CEO of AI² (Asymmetric Intelligence & Innovation), a Nashville-based firm specializing in AI governance and deterministic control architecture.

He works as a Global AI Governance Strategist, and holds more than three dozen international patents spanning industrial, aerospace, and computational systems.

His work is grounded in over forty years of fault-tolerant systems engineering across nuclear, aerospace, and industrial domains on six continents — experience that includes advisory work in China and a firsthand view of Argentina's 2002 economic collapse, both of which sharpen his lens on how complex systems fail and endure.

Reichwein is the author of more than twenty books on AI governance, workforce disruption, asymmetric warfare, and the economics of intelligence, including Asymmetric Warfare in the Age of AI and The Workforce Shock.

His frameworks — the Authorization Gap™, Context Capitalism™, and RPAT™ — anchor a body of work built on a single conviction: hardware enforces, software begs.

He lives in Nashville, Tennessee.
