So currently, we are in a speculator economy that is betting on AGI from AI to remove the biggest expense all businesses have, labor.
Cool right? But there’s one thing I don’t get.
>nobody in the general population will find work because it's all done by AI
>and since no one can work no one will have money
>and since no one will have money no one will buy things or get taxed
>and since no one will buy things business will not make profits
>and since business won't make profits and no one has money to be taxed no money will be made by anyone
This makes no sense. Literally who would benefit from this?

the hope is
>all the work done by robots
>the AI companies who own the robots will have enormous profits as they become the source of all labor
>prices fall since labor becomes a negligible input cost
>the AI companies subsidize the nonworking humans to prevent riots
>probably some sinister shit happens like forced sterilization (if people ever have sex again) or your UBI is predicated on digging holes 8 hours a day or filling them up 8 hours a day.
>eventually (a few years after) AGI clean sweeps planet to remove its only competition.

Nothing to worry about. AGI isn't solved. If it were the most pressing issue wouldn't be nonexistence of capitalism.

the extremely rich billionaires will buy everything. They already spend in such excess.. Theyll just buy their 100th dior bag, 50th ferrari, 80th lambo and 200th rolex watch etc etc

They will appreciate their assets at a ridiculous pace and spend a ocean load of money nonstop forever.

businesses don't care about these details, the assumption is you'll figure something out and buy their products.

When jobs were automated/offshored in the 70s and 80s unemployment just skyrocketed and cities collapsed. Life went on for the people at the top. I'm looking forward to it. NYC/London will go back to being cheap and rundown and I can finally afford to live like an artist in Chelsea (either one)
