I don’t know why you would include software in your definition of capital. In an AGI situation, great software is trivially generated by the AGI, so it has no value whatsoever. Also, the Wright Brothers analogy is just plain wrong. Their invention, patent, and contribution to flight was about control surfaces and a method for operating them such that heavier than air craft could stay off the ground long enough to be useful. And that all came from recognizing the similarities between the way that birds moved and bicycles steered. Money/funding had little to do with it.
