Will AI Make Universal Basic Income Necessary? | The Future of Work

from Snakz Thoughts · host Eric Broadus

As AI becomes capable of performing more human work, the biggest question may not be whether individual jobs disappear. It may be how millions of people earn enough money to participate in an increasingly automated economy.In this episode of Snakz Thoughts, we examine AI job displacement, automation, UBI, the future of work and the economic consequences of machines producing value without earning wages.But the conversation goes deeper.What happens to human purpose when work becomes less necessary? How could AI reshape families and communities? Who owns the wealth created by automation? And could entirely new forms of income emerge?UBI isn't treated as inevitable. Instead, we explore the economic problem society may eventually have to solve.AI doesn't need a paycheck. Humans do.
