A Plan in Case Robots Take the Jobs: Give Everyone a Paycheck
- ragebol 11y agoOften, I think about an UBI this way: since the robots don't need a paycheck, that paycheck goes to the now 'obsolete' people. That is fundamentally different now: the robot does not get a paycheck and the paycheck basically goes to the company. Of course, the company bought and invested in the robot and gets the paycheck as the return on that investment. I've barely heard of someone investing in a robot (or algorithm for that matter) to replace his/herself and also keeping the paycheck while letting the robot/algorithm do the work.
