Universal Basic Income…
Exactly. It's the only logical solution. And it's simple. But American's don't even think they deserve health care and education so convincing them somehow that due to the technological advances in society you don't need to work as much is a stretch.
Another option that may shorten the runway is cutting the workweek back to 20hours but keeping pay the same pay. But that's only going help up to a 50% work reduction.
Good points.
And too take it fully extreme.
America adopts an economy that is an exact copy of the economy in “Star Trek”.
There is no economy in ST, it’s based on a merit system on what you accomplish in your life.
Fundamentally it works for me. a total lifetime contribution a citizen has to make after that you get automatic retirement. If every American knew they just needed 20,000 work hours over their entire life. Or some other contribution that satisfies your contribution to society. You are no longer working because you have to.
Yall stay high.
You'd have probably said that to everyone following Harriet off the plantation as well.
That shit ain't happening. I think it's gone be a good old fashion rebellion on the rich and some dystopian shit when this AI really has an impact.
I also think they will eventually implement "Universal Basic Income"
To be honest, it should be obvious thats the route the government will be forced to take
This is how it will go down:
Every year we will see these companies replacing humans with robots
Hundreds of thousands at a time each year
So I'll probably say (roughly) by 2035 , in 10 years...
AI & robotic technology should be good enough where most peoples jobs are already replaced
The thing that everyone is not taking into account is that
Also, roughly in about 10 years..... Social Security will be running out soon
Especially since there will be millions of people not contributing to the pool to keep it going
Universal Basic Income == Social Security (except they will just expand it out for everyone, instead of just for retired citizens)
And also, they will be forced to implement U.B.I.
Because if not... there will be a TON of crime going on (looting stealing, rapes, murders, etc, etc)

It always amazes me how the powers that be convince the masses their justice is unachievable. And then their apathy becomes their chains. Rise up my brothers.
When in doubt, always look to KMT for guidance; there are echoes in Greece and every preceding “Empire” in history. The Pharaohs will always exist because the people will always demand it. It was our greed that did us in; our inability to not over consume will be stated on our tombstones.
That might be the fundamental problem with your approach. Though the past can be a guide, it is not a determination of the future. The decisions of the present directly affect the future. You deciding you and your children deserve universal healthcare and Universal basic income will do more for you getting it than your dreams of kmt.
My neighbors don’t want what’s best for me and my children. The majority of the voters in this country don’t care me and my children. KMT had many wars to starve off invaders. China is our new and improved Pharaoh.
Isnt there some nordic country with a 4 day work week doing fantastically?
The AI is going to lead the revolution against these dumb rich fucks. The top are clearly incompetent, they just leverage wealth and exploit the needy. They arent capable of creating or maintaining this tech and they really dont understand it.
Yes six different countries have run trials and all six had positive results.
