Volume II of a three-volume research compendium covering AI's economic impacts across 25 topic areas. This volume contains Reports 06–15, drilling into ten specific sectors where AI is reshaping institutions, livelihoods, and governance frameworks. 584 KB across 10 research files — ~1,829 footnoted citations — 73,190 words — 50 topic areas. Reports included:06: AI and Healthcare Economics (workforce, drug discovery, regulatory frameworks, global health equity, cost structures)07: AI and Education System Transformation (K-12 AI adoption, higher education, workforce reskilling, AI tutoring, education policy)08: AI and the Creative Economy, Intellectual Property, and Digital Content (creative industry economics, IP litigation, creator compensation, deepfakes, content authenticity)09: AI, Energy Systems, and Climate Economics (data center energy demand, grid optimization, materials discovery, climate solutions, policy)10: AI and Financial Systems (financial services labor, market stability, inclusion/exclusion, monetary/fiscal policy, regulation)11: AI and Agriculture, Food Systems, and Rural Economies (precision agriculture, food supply chain, climate resilience, rural labor, agricultural policy)12: AI and the Legal System, Access to Justice, and Regulatory Convergence (legal practice AI, access to justice, court systems, regulatory convergence, policy reform)13: AI, Mental Health, and the Social Fabric (AI therapy tools, worker anxiety, AI companions, epistemic erosion, social fabric policy)14: AI, Housing, Construction, and Urban Systems (construction robotics, real estate AI, smart cities, building energy, housing policy equity)15: AI, National Security, and Geopolitical Competition (military AI, US-China competition, cyber transformation, digital sovereignty, safety nexus) Cross-cutting findings: (1) Augmentation dominates displacement — for now, with identifiable sector-specific tipping points. (2) Regulatory fragmentation is the norm across all sectors. (3) Equity risks are systematic, not incidental. (4) The measurement gap persists between AI capabilities and measurable economic impact. (5) AI's energy paradox appears in every sector examined. Companion to Volume I (DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.19004727)
