A Decent Income For No Work.

Jul 21, 2017 · 1 min read

It’s funny — it’s all around us already, behind the scenes, robots taking human workers jobs; at first slowly of course, but after a few versions over a few years, they’ll be better than any human. In a million little jobs they are stealing jobs all around us, and once gone, the robots will never give them away to humans again. They are gone. Faster and faster, getting more complex and difficult all the time, until suddenly they come for you. Yes you, and you say “that’s not possible!” even though it’s obvious it’s been happening all around you and you did not notice. Wake up people! A decent income for no work, NOT a UBI — that’s for suckers who think they are going to get retrained for some new (nonexistent) job. Oh no — this time it’s really genuinely different, and those who do not know it are suckers indeed.

I am extremely interested in AI, especially the not-so-good side of AI weapons and AI war, although the good parts are magnificent and wonderful too, naturally.
