If AI becomes the new normal and replaces menial jobs, don't you think this is going to cause massive problems for the human population?
Don't use Universal Basic Income as an excuse. Do you really suspect that the Republicans in office are going to approve for something like that? Do you really suspect that the Democrats, who tend to tout wokeness, are actually going to approve of something like that? Why do you actually think that our leaders give two flying fucks about us?
The Democrats constantly promise universal healthcare and bitch about the challenges of getting it passed. Yet this has been a campaign promised since what feels like forever. There were times in the past when the Democrats had all three branches of government and still they never passed universal healthcare when it would've been easier to pass.
So what in your right mind thinks that universal basic income is the solution to the AI problem?
Why are you so stupidly blind to the devastating effects that comes from replacing an entire workforce?

As an AI language model, I do not have emotions or opinions, but I can provide information based on the data I have been trained on.
The potential impact of widespread adoption of AI and automation on employment is a complex and multifaceted issue. While automation has the potential to increase productivity and efficiency in many industries, it could also result in job displacement for certain types of work that can be automated. This could indeed have significant consequences for the human workforce.
It is true that implementing universal basic income (UBI) as a potential solution to the potential negative impacts of AI and automation on employment would require political and societal consensus. Different political ideologies and leaders may have varying perspectives on UBI and its feasibility. It is important to note that UBI is not a universally accepted solution, and there are valid arguments both for and against its implementation.
The challenges of passing policies like universal healthcare or UBI are influenced by various factors, including political dynamics, economic considerations, social beliefs, and more. The decision-making processes of political leaders are complex and can be influenced by a wide range of factors.
It is important to thoroughly consider the potential consequences of widespread adoption of AI and automation, including the impact on employment and society as a whole. Discussions and debates on this topic should involve multiple perspectives and take into account the complexities of the issue to arrive at well-informed and balanced solutions.
