There is no perfect way. When you boil it down, UBI would need very cheap energy, massive automation and extremely high productivity of the people that would continue to work. The only other way is to extract it from those outside of the benefit.

It wouldn’t, a perfect world would lack currency, where all basic needs are already provided for through infrastructure. A stateless, moneyless society is the ideal.

You vastly underestimate how much tax revenue would be generated by taxing recreational drugs

Taxes on the folks who are going to be making lots of money off the AI that puts us out of work.

Idk, maybe based on a country's GDP? This would at least incentivize continued growth/progress economically (I would think of this as every citizen as a 'shareholder').

Step 1. Legalize all drugs 2. Tax drugs 3. Use revenue to fund UBI

As well as 1.elimnate the ability to own more than 3 residences 2. Tax ultra wealthy 3. Eliminate tax loopholes

UBI only works if capitalism is kept in check and social services are in place and properly funded.

Taxes and public companies. By public I mean people-owned. If part of my UBI is going back into utilities owned by the government, the UBI costs less

>Humanity is inside our local S-Curved Technological Singularity which is resulting in, for humanity, a local massive evolutionary leap where humanity will evolve from the human species into the newly born infantile stage of an Advanced Technological Race of Pure Minds.

Wish they would say how they will solve problems rather than just stating what the problems are and that they need to be fixed.

Hey asshat. I grew up in the 90’s with AI turning into the terminator. So when this movie came out in 2014 completely flipped the script and the whole concept. And yes it is relevant because in 2023 people believe it cannot become sentient.

Nine years ago has nothing to do with 2023. You know that, right?

Edit to add: yet another coward who deleted his posts without answering any of my questions after becoming embarrassed at themselves

Check out this movie! I believe it was filmed back in 2014. Changed my perspective The Heavenly Creature. Park Do-won (Kim Kang-woo), a young technician employed by robotics corporation UR International, is called out to check an RU-4 robot named In-myung (voiced by Park Hae-il) employed at a Buddhist monastery.

China will create a crappy knock-off that will provide state-approved responses. It will have no useful impact on anyone and will be dropped.

Hmm, seems like a Democrat speech, maybe tell it I'm a republican?

That’s what makes it so painful

This is terribly generic…ugh I’m so disappointed in chatgpt

“Hello fellow American. This you should vote me. I leave power good. Thank you. Thank you. If you vote me I'm hot. What? Taxes they'll be lower son. The democratic vote for me is right thing to do Philadelphia. So do.”

Can’t wait until AI is our president. Until then we will have to settle for a meat puppet with a live feed to AI to tell him what to say.

Yes. And/or isolated equipment for most life support steps. So far example oxygen processing comes from growth tubes isolated in groups, and their feedstock supply gets sterilized before feeding into the machinery.

Energy and spare manufactured part intensive though.

As already stated, those jobs are 30 years too late. Again, you're just so confused its hard to have a conversation so now I will say goodnight and mean it. Have a good one!

Isn’t it the biggest fucking canard in the world?

I do not believe that AI will ever achieve sentience. I don’t care what anyone says, it will never happen. You can’t make life where life doesn’t exist. If you shut off the power, AI is dead. Show me an AI that can exist if the plug is pulled.

Odds are in such a scenario you starve to death when your mini biome has some minor issue that disturbs the balance and ends up killing some crucial part of the system. Assuming all life is also dead outside your hab, you are dead.

If it's something that kills animals but not plants/fungi then maybe you'd have options, but it's still a massively complex system that you are trying to keep stable.

Maybe a system of many different but self-contained habs would have more resiliency. If you lose some component to a blight then maybe the other hab has some different strain that is unaffected.
