There's potential for manipulation here by the government. I would qualify your post with open source usage of the model, training algorithms and training data as well.

No I mean more than an emergency fund. An emergency fund can be part of it, but I think you have to plan more given the greater uncertainties posed by AI. More than a fund, an alternative.passive income source(s) is another factor. Given th

The fact that corporations and businesses will utilize AI to it's maximum extent is completely deterministic. This will happen. Whether or not humanity in aggregate will launch a delayed immune response against AI via government regula

Why? What should affect whether something is considered is it's likelihood of happening. If AI has a 99% chance of replacing you, then you'd rather consider the 1% alternative simply because there's no place for you anymore?

This is a good point. The civil war like the drug war though are choices made after an inevitable plunge onto the predictable path. Both choices had a high cost and were incredibly hard to make. It was also predictably a delayed response wi

We lack choice in aggregate. As an individual you have the choice of doing a drug. If I talk about a population of people and I introduce highly addictive drugs to a population of people, then it's almost a guarantee that part of that

It could one day be possible for AI content to be so superior to human content that it becomes distinguishable. We may actually be identifying human content by how inferior it is to AI generated content. It could be happening already.

You're failing to account for the trajectory of this technology where AI easily produces content indistinguishable and superior to human content. When such A I content becomes cheap and pervasive then AI will suddenly turn into a mirro

No it's not healthy in my opinion. A drug addict doesn't exactly have a choice when he uses drugs. Aspects of human behavior in aggregate are so predictable it's basically deterministic. If AI one day matches or surpasses hum

There's no raw data on ubi in an largely automated economy. It's too radical of a change to know how well it would work. Communism, in theory, worked as well too but in practice there were unanticipated side effects.
