I guess that's what you meant?

In reference to automation and UBI? I don't see automation as a downside. Of course you need to readjust, as with any large scale change.

> What about money?

The hundreds of billions being sunk into AI.

> You can't force me to want (or not want) someone's goods and services.

What are you talking about? What does that have to do with anything in this conversation?

> If you're worried about large scale automation and so forth

I'm not.

> I'm fine with something like UBI.

Well as long as you're fine with UBI I guess we can put this conversation to rest.

Seriously, if you don't want to actually participate in the conversation you can just ignore comments. It's fine.

In retrospect, we might realize that we didn't spend enough money on AI. Highest-leverage moment in history and such.

But, ok. Let's leave it at that. Peace.
