  • You may say that jokingly, but at some point if the tech keeps improving, that may be the only way the world continues to exist without destabilizing. OpenAI already says* that their end goal is to make the world powered by a form of universal basic income by having AI do most jobs. Having the AI be paid on task completion and distributing that accumulated wealth, removing a portion to cover maintenance, would be one method of doing so.

    *that said, the words of a potential megacorporation aren’t really to be trusted, and the whole thing would have massive issues of “how do you distribute the money” and “what am I giving up in terms of personal safety and privacy”. Having to make an account with a specific AI company and providing all your governmental identification to receive that funds for example would be terrible.
