If AI is a bubble that pops, we will need UBI, and if AI isn't a bubble and replaces a lot of labor, we will need UBI. So hey, here's a thought, let's do UBI now before all the shit truly hits the fan.
Either the AI bubble will pop, which will create a Great Depression-level market crash.
Or the AI valuations will be justified, which only works if AI replaces a huge number of workers and we get massive unemployment.
Either way, we are headed towards a monumental crisis.
