better yet, enact a land value tax, on top of automation taxes, which could probably cover all the needs of society, also have a VAT to get back some of the money doled out, but do away with income taxes. Then of course universal basic income + healthcare should be a given. Then we need to figure out how we can retain value as a society when AI can do most jobs, personally I hope that society devolves into two main professions after that -- entertainers, and scientists. Sure, Super AGI can outthink any scientist, but the more science thinkers the better IMHO. I think a huge swath of society will also be tied up in virtual worlds, which is probably good so we don't tick off a war against AI, if we stay out of each others way, then there's no need for our annihilation, or being turned into a zoo.
