Another possible approach is a guaranteed annual income, funded by companies that benefit most from AI-driven profits to share the gains of automation more fairly. A guaranteed annual income may be augmented by creating an AI dividend fund, which would consist of a nominal “compute levy” on the use of AI applications in commercial settings, applied, for example, to AI agents that replace human labor. The proceeds of the AI dividend fund would be distributed proportionately as direct payments to “give people breathing room to retrain their skills and re-orient their lives.”
