Well, I think there are a few things that matter here that you want to try to improve as a result of sharing the benefits of AI with everybody in society. I think you get them better by distributing that equity out. Now, there’s a lot of complexity to that, and I’ll talk about that in a second, but if you’re relying on the government for UBI or you’re relying on the government even for dividends from a wealth fund, the gap between the citizen and the money is large. You’re still dependent on a bureaucrat deciding how much and when you get your check, and so on. If we actually distribute the equity to all citizens a) it once again takes the power away from the politicians to use that in ways that you might not want and it gets power directly to the citizens, and b) it puts everybody in society in the game.
