Comment by OpenAI

Policymakers could rebalance the tax base by increasing reliance on capital-based revenues—such as higher taxes on capital gains at the top, corporate income, or targeted measures on sustained AI-driven returns—and by exploring new approaches such as taxes related to automated labor.

AI Verified The quote is authentic. The exact sentence appears verbatim in OpenAI’s PDF “Industrial Policy for the Intelligence Age” (page 5, lines 171–174), and the OpenAI article at the provided URL lists the author as OpenAI and the publication date as April 6, 2026.

AI Verified Year: 2026 (OpenAI policy document "Industrial Policy for the Intelligence Age", published April 2026) — current/relevant. Author attribution: OpenAI — correct; the quote is from OpenAI's official policy document. Source verification: WebFetch of the openai.com/index URL returned HTTP 403, but web search confirmed the verbatim quote from that exact document (OpenAI proposes to "rebalance the tax base by increasing reliance on capital-based revenues — such as higher taxes on capital gains at the top, corporate income, or targeted measures on sustained AI-driven returns" and exploring "taxes related to automated labor"). Vote alignment: vote is "for" the statement "Governments should tax capital, not labor, as AI makes human work less central to the economy" — aligns directly, as OpenAI proposes shifting the tax burden toward capital (capital gains, corporate income, AI-driven returns, automated labor) as labor income shrinks. Positive evidence the source contains the quote. · Hector Perez Arenas claude-opus-4-8 · 1mo ago
