The Coming Technology Boom
- Kaibeezy 6y ago- mRNA vaccines - geothermal energy - fusion - autonomous vehicles - electric vehicles - AI - space exploration - anti-aging - anti-obesity - lab meat All of which would increase productivity and wealth, but unevenly, so that “universal basic income would become a red hot topic”.
- creato 6y agoLower energy prices and lower meat prices seem like they would reduce inequality, not increase it. A few more of the things seem "inequality neutral" to me (vaccines, electric vehicles). That's about half the list (and IMHO, the half that will have a bigger impact on the world than the other half).
