Comment by Gerald Giam

Singapore Member of Parliament who proposed a National AI Equity Fund in 2026.
To address this, I propose the establishment of the National AI Equity Fund. This fund is a necessary safeguard to maintain the integrity of our social contract. It is a strategic surplus transfer from enterprises which benefit immensely from AI back to Singaporeans to facilitate our collective stability. [...] The first is a Social Dividend, where revenue is distributed as a direct payout to every adult Singapore citizen. I propose an initial annual dividend of $500 per adult citizen, scaling upward as Fund contributions grow.
