University of Texas at Austin economics and public-policy researcher; author of a 2026 working paper on an AI sovereign wealth fund and universal dividends.
If AI shifts income from labor to capital, that assumption fails, and it fails just when displacement makes the safety net most necessary. This paper develops a legal and economic framework for a response that matches the problem: a sovereign wealth fund holding a claim on the capital AI makes productive and paying a universal dividend. The remedy for a capital-driven shift in income is a public capital claim, not a patch on a wage-based system.
