Will AI Make Universal Basic Income a Reality? Here’s How It Could Be Implemented

As AI continues to advance and increase its capabilities, analysts warn that intelligent robots could replace much manual human labor. This could trigger a wave of unemployment that would reshape society and prompt the enactment of some form of UBI. Here’s how that might happen.

Will Big Capital Pay for UBI in the AI Age? Some Believe It Is Possible

The potential substitution of large swaths of human labor by artificial intelligence (AI) and intelligent robots has prompted analysts to consider the surge of a universal basic income (UBI) strategy, capable of sustaining the population in a post-singularity world.

Several explanations have arisen to describe how this process will take shape, and pinpoint from where the capital for this new economic structure will come, with UBI at the forefront.

Nic Carter, a cryptocurrency and AI investor, believes that as AI systematically displaces human labour, there will be a backlash of socialist movements rejecting the new system as a response to the change of an era. Ultimately, Carter believes that the new system will be founded on top of UBI, financed by big capital holders, subject to laws enforcing it.

On social media, he stated:

Elon Musk recently stressed that as productivity grows, the price of goods and services will decrease, ushering in a robot-led era of prosperity for all humanity. In response to a post that estimated 2030 as a possible year for this to happen, Musk declared:

It remains uncertain whether AI will achieve the level of dexterity required to render humans obsolete. Nonetheless, Musk has been warning about the need for a UBI strategy since 2017, when AI had not developed to the degree that chatbots and agents show today. “I don’t think we’re going to have a choice,” he concluded at that time.

SHIB Price Drops as Leadership Concerns Grow

SHIB Price Drops as Leadership Concerns Grow

The post SHIB Price Drops as Leadership Concerns Grow appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Shiba Inu investors uneasy as Kusama’s silence fuels leadership concerns. SHIB slid 13% in three days, retracing from $0.00001484 to $0.00001305. Shibarium exploit and Kusama’s absence have weighed on investor trust. Shiba Inu investors are voicing concerns about the project’s long-term direction as leadership uncertainty and slow ecosystem progress erode confidence.  The token, which rallied from its meme-coin origins to become the second-largest meme asset by market cap, counts more than 1.5 million holders worldwide. But as SHIB matures, the gap between early hype and current delivery has widened.  The project’s transition into an “ecosystem coin” with spin-off projects and Shibarium, its layer-2 network, once raised expectations. Analysts now point to internal challenges as the main factor holding SHIB back from fulfilling that potential. Kusama’s Silence Adds to Instability Central to the debate is the role of Shytoshi Kusama, Shiba Inu’s pseudonymous lead developer. Investors are concerned about the intermittent disappearance of the project’s lead developer, who repeatedly takes unannounced social media breaks.  For instance, Kusama went silent on X for over a month before resurfacing this week amid growing speculation that he had abandoned the Shiba Inu project.  Kusama returned shortly after the Shibarium bridge suffered an exploit worth around $3 million. However, he did not directly address the issue but only reassured Shiba Inu community members of his commitment to advancing the project.  Although most community members didn’t complain about Kusama’s anonymity in the project’s initial stages, his recent behavior has raised concerns. Many are beginning to develop trust issues, particularly because nobody could reveal the SHIB developer’s identity for the past five years. He has conducted all communications under pseudonyms. SHIB Price Action Reflects Sentiment Shift Market reaction has mirrored the doubts. SHIB, which spiked 26% at the start of September, has since reversed. Over the last…
