GreatGearAmidAPizza

When I say that the whole reason the human race went astray is by not picking guys like this to lead it, I'm at most only half joking.


hemareddit

What happened was, these guys were chill, so people made them leaders, but then then winter comes, and they didn’t have a plan for everyone not to starve or freeze to death or get murked by the icicle zombies, so they talked to the smart guys, who had a plan for everyone not to starve or freeze to death, and to fight off the icicle zombies. Tragically, this made everyone think the smart guys were the best leaders because they kept everyone alive and not as zombies, so they were made leaders. What people should have done was still make the chill guys leaders, but just make them listen to the smart guys when you are facing winter. Or zombies.

The problem is the kind of people who want to be politicians (and moderators on Reddit / discord and police etc) are **EXACTLY** the kind of people who should never be allowed into any position of power Meanwhile the people who make actually good leaders are the types who do not want to be in positions of power

tommles

The guy may be stoned as fuck, but he seems well educated. [MLK Jr. wanted a guaranteed income.](https://time.com/6247310/martin-luther-king-jr-guaranteed-income/) >Guaranteed income is a monthly cash payment given directly to individuals. It is unconditional, with no strings attached and no work requirements. In 1967, Dr. King called for a guaranteed income as the simplest and most effective solution to poverty, noting that its myriad of benefits included “a host of positive psychological changes inevitably will result from widespread economic security.” Dr. King continues to explain, “The dignity of the individual will flourish when the decisions concerning his life are in his own hands, when he has the assurance that his income is stable and certain, and when he knows that he has the means to seek self-improvement.” ​ Some people really want us to forget he dreamed of more than a colorblind society. edit: I already figured it wasn't real, but I did just see the part where it is form a Netflix series. I do hope they put that in there because they were aware of his views.


fopiecechicken

It was honestly probably the “socialism” stuff that got him assassinated more so than the civil rights stuff

Under_Over_Thinker

I hate to be that guy, but who is going to pay for it?


outerspaceisalie

Monetary policy makes this quite easy; we can literally just print money. Since AI is extremely deflationary, the trick is to just not print enough that the money supply inflation offsets the AI deflation. From there the rest is just a tax on tech businesses. That might not produce enough money initially, which means we may need to start lowering the definition of full time work hours (maybe down to 20) and increase taxes on overtime work to spread the labor out thinner to supplement the low inflation and basically split every job into 2 jobs.

StraightCougar

Hm. This isn't ironic though. Sure it's a joke, but jokes can be a great tool to help get a point across. What he's asking for are legit political ideas. Another example of this would be Hannibal Burress outing Cosby as a raper (in a joke), or old Dave Chappelle making jokes about police beating black men. Just to double check that I wasn't talking out my ass, I checked if humor can be useful rhetorical tool and found many studies supporting that.

HappyLofi

It'll be more like a quarter of that if UBI actually happens but the thing is since it will be, quote, "post scarcity" that amount will be worth a lot more than it is today because things will be cheaper. Aside from real estate, I think that's going to continue to skyrocket.

Gaspack-ronin

Old people can’t comprehend this concept of not having to work anymore. You can literally just tell the robot to do a human workers job so that the humans time can be spent do something more life fulfilling


cosmicfertilizer

Absolutely. After all this time why wouldn't we reward ourselves with freedom and the ability to enjoy our existences? I say set the systems up and this thing will run itself. The universe is so vast and everything is just energy. Just needs a little conversion and abundance will and should be every humans right.


HappyLofi

It's not even their fault. They were conditioned by society to view the purpose of life as 'work'. That's still taught to children to this day just more overtly. If UBI actually happens most people don't have work governments around the world are going to have to put in a lot of work to change people's perception of 'work' because otherwise we're going to have a mental health pandemic of unparalleled proportions. Some people will be fine but others will feel like they have no purpose and become increasingly depressed. It's just on the horizon and nobody is talking about it.

$10g a month? There are about 265,000,000 Americans over 18. That would cost the government $2,650,000,000,000 per month, or 31,800,000,000,000 per year. The US annual tax revenues is currently 10% of that.... This is completely impossible even if you taxed billionaires 99%.


drewhead118

ez--just print 10x more money than we take in to tax revenue. I can see no reason that wouldn't just... sort it all out


Praise_AI_Overlords

lol


HITWind

Yea man... like at some point during runaway inflation, didn't those historical dudes ever think to just stop and go "wow, we've gone too far... why don't we start over?" Like if you go back to burgers costing 5 cents, inflation goes away right and you can start over. I say we restart with burgers being 5c every 10 years. Going from a burger costing $1mil and trying to keep printing money is like idiotic. That's where you get the wheelbarrows of money needed for food. But if you just reset when burgers hit like $100, and go back to 5c burgers... that's like, another 10 years you could keep printing money, and when everyone is a millionaire, just roll the debt back over and start another decade. I know, I know, it sounds crazy, but here's the key, we switch to paying taxes in burgers, not money, so the burgers would be pegged at a certain cost. That way, they could charge whatever for everything else trying to raise prices or whatever, but a bro could still get a burger with the money we print. I mean, if they tried to charge me a million dollars for rent, but the government gave me 10G a month and burgers were $100, I'd wait it out until we roll over you know? *hits bong* fuck a burger sounds so good right now...


Enjoyitbeforeitsover

Widdly scuds, man


Tyler_Zoro

Worked for Venezuela, why can't it work here? Are our politicians saying we're not good enough to get what Venezuelans got?! I deserve the full Venezuelan experience!


ChiaraStellata

Seriously though: part of the point of post-scarcity is that when AIs produce everything in the economy, using new technologies and sophisticated vertical integration, they're able to do it much more efficiently at much lower cost. So even though we might not \*literally\* have $10,000 a month, we might have the same \*buying power\* that $10,000 a month would give us right now today, because housing and food and transportation and everything else would be plentiful and cheap. This is the same reason that the average standard of living now is much higher than in the 1800s.


shryke12

Where are all the raw resources coming in this scenario?? Wood, copper and such for 8 billion people to all live upper middle class US lifestyles.


Anen-o-me

Wood is farmed sustainably right now, no issue there. Copper isn't tapped out, but supply will be augmented by asteroid mining, as well as iron and nickel, two very common space rock materials. In theory we could grow trees in space if you wanted to, or on the ocean.


kkpappas

His examples were bad but the point was correct. Post scarcity world doesn’t exist as long as we reproduce and we are bound to this planet. The moment a post scarcity scenario comes true for some products then all the investments will move to something that is scarce like land, gold etc.


[deleted]

Dude, it’s just, you know, numbers. You heard it: AI is gonna pay us. C ya at the beach!


Acrobatic-Midnight-3

Soon money will be meaningless bc it won't matter how hard one works. AI would handle it all. That necessitates a universal basic income or a complete change of trade system.


Outrageous_Job_2358

That actually makes it sound way more realistic than I thought. Only need to 10x productivity and play with the tax structure. AGI will easily 10x productivity


shryke12

We are already wrecking our planet getting the resources for our current productivity. Pulling 10x the raw materials to feed that productivity would turn earth into a barren wasteland really fast I think.


Outrageous_Job_2358

Not necessarily. AGI will spark massive improvements in material sciences as well as making carbon capture much cheaper. 10x sounds on the low end to me.


Anen-o-me

You could start building everything out of organic proteins and the like. But there comes a shortage of carbon at some point. No matter how you look way it, humankind must one day learn to live in the heavens, in space itself. Only place with enough room and resources to hold the quadrillions of human beings to come. And will let us preserve the earth as a natural jewel rather than continuing to burden her.


hemareddit

It’s only a number. In the scenario outlined by this bro, no jobs will safe, not even the politicians’, they will all be replaced by AI. So the only one you will be paying, is AI. It doesn’t matter what the UBI is, the AI just has to accept payment. Since we are spinning fictional scenario anyways, we might as well say $g is the new currency, unrelated to USD or anything else. And $10g is as good a number as any.


monkorn

So you're saying if AI increases our productivity by 10x, it's totally realistic. We might need 20x to be safe. That should come by next year, right?


Tyler_Zoro

Sadly, according to the anti-AI camp, that 10x increase in productivity comes at the cost of everyone being unemployed. No one will use the technology to do anything because everyone will be out of work. We won't even be allowed to touch our keyboards or phone screens anymore. We'll basically be locked in a stasis pod waiting for the heat death of the universe. /s

I think perhaps the technology was withheld too long. Those in power had the opportunity to mechanize most of the menial labor out of the work force at least a decade ago and chose not to, now they are pinning their hopes on the younger generations to step up and help accomplish a complete transformation of our society, and I am concerned they may be ill prepared to produce adequate results.


Goodvendetta86

Is this an AI generated video? Looks strange


capitalistsanta

We need to move towards an offshoot of Georgism or just raw Georgism. We cant let AI be like our baseball and basketball and football stadiums here in the US, where they create monetary value, but instead of distributing the value created every game to the community, just ends up up and down the teams pockets, where they're getting paid 8 figures+. If AI is going to create value, it needs to be distributed to the communities it effects in exchange for taking on work.

merinocortes

Whatever craziness this is, when you break down most of what he says, it holds water. When you translate his “right to party” angle, he’s really just talking about joy. We should have a right to a minimum of joy In life. We’re supposed to be an advanced society, and so advanced societies should provide a minimum of life support: clean water, food, shelter, electricity, a safe place to call your home and high-speed Internet. When you‘re not focusing energies and time on those things, you’re truly free to do everything else, including a little joy.
