Universal Basic Income 

We Are A Collaborative Project Dedicated to the Study of Artificial Intelligence, Human Disintermediation and UBI or Universal Basic Income (aka Universal Income or Universal Basic Cashflow)

Universal basic income A.I. research is NOT about socialism, nor does it promote a welfare state!

Universal basic income and A.I. is NOT about advertising Socialism and mass handouts, nor is it about amplifying the welfare state or anything so trivial. UBI research needs to be performed by brilliant people. Qualified experts need to use advanced A.I. systems (already available) to predict and model new financial plans that support the ever-growing numbers of people whose jobs and skill sets are likely to be disintermediated. 

An estimated 10,000% increase in A.I. capabilities and technologies will flood every vertical market worldwide in 2023. See Sam Altman's comment on the need for more research below: 

 Minute 12:00 Above: A firm warning from Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI.

"With stronger AI, we will have to think about how we share 'Wealth' in a very different way than we have in the past. The fundamental forces of capitalism and what makes it work break down.

Is it something like a Basic Income or a wealth redistribution? We are trying to study that, and it needs to be explored more.

People have yet to internalize what happens if the cultural playing field shifts this much.

So, they assume that a  'small tweak' on capitalism will work.

If you let yourself think 'science fiction dreamworld' out very far, where you can say - 'ok, AGI, start a new trillion-dollar company.'

And the AGI can be the CEO, it can figure out how to go raise capital, it can do all of the engineering, it can do the marketing, it can do the distribution, and you just typed in ONE command prompt and pushed "ENTER" - and the A.I. went off and did that.

That's weird. How do we live in a world like that?"

Will UBI Solve AI Job Disruption?

Historical Context and Evolution

🌟 UBI has been a pipe dream since the 16th century, first proposed by Thomas Moore in his book "Utopia" in 1516, but has never been properly implemented by any government despite surprisingly successful test runs.

🔍 In the 1960s and 1970s, economists like Bertrand Russell and Major C.H. Douglas proposed versions of basic income to ensure economic security for all citizens, leading to projects like Mincome in Canada.

Implementation Attempts and Challenges

🏛️ President Nixon introduced a form of UBI through the Family Assistance Plan in 1969, but it failed to pass the Senate due to added work requirements, resulting in today's complex welfare verification processes.

🧪 A UBI test run in Speenhamland, England in the 1830s was misrepresented by a 13,000-page report, later debunked as false, with evidence primarily from local elites who viewed the poor negatively.

Modern Experiments and Outcomes

🌍 Recent UBI projects in Kenya and Finland have shown positive outcomes, including increased entrepreneurship, savings, school attendance, mental health, and job stability, challenging traditional assumptions about welfare systems.

AI, and AGI, is set to replace 100% of human labor in a matter of years. 

This isn't hype, clickbait, or a myth.

This January, 2,700+ AI researchers published an indepth prediction on the full automation of all human labor occurring by 2120.

If we cross-reference that date against the AI breakthroughs happening every week, I believe we can expect full automation in a matter of years and decades, not centuries.

What happens when robotics and AI does every job we as humans used to get paid to do?

A whole new world is born. UBI, or Universal Basic Income, is the concept of a baseline level of income for everyone on earth – made possible because of AI. 

In this video, I explore UBI, the post-labor economy, and make some predictions about when we will see all this happen.

I also give you some critical advice on how to build critical thinking and deeper focus, and avoid the thinking-killer phenomenon known as TikTok brain.

This is an important video to watch. Drop your thoughts in the comments.

Why Does Ever-Improving Artificial Intelligence and Robotics Inevitably Lead to Human Disintermediation, Job Losses, and Professional Displacement? 

Artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to automate specific tasks that are currently done by humans, which could lead to disintermediation in particular jobs and careers. Disintermediation refers to the process of cutting out intermediaries in a supply chain. In the context of jobs and careers, it relates to replacing human workers with technology. This could lead to job loss and professional displacement for some individuals, but it could also lead to new opportunities and innovations. For example, AI can automate repetitive tasks, freeing human workers to focus on more creative and strategic work. Additionally, the development and deployment of AI can create new jobs in fields such as data science and machine learning.
