You don't need technology for UBI. It's literally cheaper for thr government to put everyone on UBI than it is for 1/4 to half of the population using walfare. And you end up with a on average happier population that work better

We'd be there by now if people took something other than Compsci, but no they can't do that because every other engineering field has a slight possibility of touching a piece of technology that isn't a computer, which is disgraceful and unladylike.

UBI is just a weird sad cope to try and preserve an economic model that is naturally nearing the end of its life cycle.

If you have the ability to give everyone an income to cover their necessities, then why not give them those necessities directly..? Obviously it's because poor people make bad financial decisions and in doing so UBI is an indirect means of stimulating existing enterprises.

UBIfags will argue that it reduces the overhead of the existing welfare system, but it also introduces new overhead where you have to constantly increase the amount of payments given by UBI to track with the economic reality. Oh you're going to link it to the inflation rate? Cool, now what about the geographically varying cost of housing? Or even food? In northern Canada, food prices are astronomical because it all has to be imported.

It's just very stupid. If you gave people necessities directly then this isn't an issue. Northern Canadians get food because they need food, simple as that. The only thing to discuss is if the list of necessities needs to be updated with new technology, like computers.

In response to the question of which technology would help with this? Automated factory processes to produce these necessities for one. Maybe a central computing system that keeps track of who needs what. For example a paraplegic will need wheelchairs, someone in Northern Canada will need jackets, and so on.

So communism is bad and your remedy is to do communism again but with even more bureaucracy? Come on nigga.

UBI has worked (not even sure this is true, didn't Finland suspend their trial?) because they tried it on a local scale where the variance in necessities is low.

What happens when you're trying to organize a UBI policy to cover tens of millions of people, some of which live in metropolitan areas with 3x the rental cost of the rural areas? Or when there's a blizzard in the north and temperate conditions in the south?

I'm not saying it can't work exactly, but I think the UBI promise of a simpler bureaucratic system is totally unfounded. You're going to have to pass policies for all these things and constantly debate them the way we do with minimum wage laws now. Oh shit Elon Musk bought up half the property in the city, we need to adjust local UBI to accommodate.

Anyone with a brain knows that the rich will make it absolutely sure that UBI never becomes a thing in the US.
What will most likely happen, is that a lot more people are gonna get fucked on the daily. The rich fucks will use these technological advancements to safely separate themselves from the dirty poors even further and live in highly defendable small cities. Even have guard robots to guard their resources used to make said robots.
Hell, they might even watch the poors die off from famine due to climate change with pity.

Prices will adjust to reflect the vast amount of cash you're flooding the economy with. And you'll be taxed hard on that extra money. You won't be able to live without UBI, and if you do anything the government doesn't like, you'll get cut off from it and starve.

The actual white implementation of communism was East Germany which was the most successful member of the Eastern Bloc by far.
They were 'rewarded' for their success by having to send all their excess production back to Moscow.

The best timeline is Germany flipping communist and actually doing things decently so that either capitalism improves via competition or communism wins and we switch to that. As it stands, the Russian abortion version of communism has made capitalism a political unipole and destroyed competition.

I'm a social liberal. I think that once the AI takes over the libs are gonna warm up to UBI

I dunno. If AI leads to conditions that make UBI possible, I don't know why it wouldn't lead to just full scale luxury communism instead. No money, just give everyone what they need directly. Let money if it still exists be for vanity things. Not that I'm predicting either UBI or luxury communism any time soon.

There were communist movements occurring everywhere dipshit. Orwell in Homage to Catalonia specifically calls out the Soviets for curtailing a genuine revolutionary movement and halting it from spreading into France.

Russia kickstarted it and then immediately took control of it so it became an ideology centered on a single nation the way liberal democracy is centered on the US now. Every communist larper calls their friend comrade in a Russian accent or tovarisch.
>>
>>102449537
I am not a reactionary, I am a communist. I love Russia and I love China too.
>>
>>102449554
The idea is that eventually it will in fact lead to luxury communism, if not being named that, but it'll have to start somewhere
>>
I agree with the general sentiment behind communism, but I think that its methodology is outdated.

After UBI is rolled out, the machinations of the economy will still technically exist, but it will be in name only in the same way that monarchies technically still exist but are only ceremonial. We will live as if we are under fully automated luxury communism.
>>
>>102449571
>Russia kickstarted it and then immediately took control of it
Because at the time, they were literally the only ones who had the knowledge to do it right. This had the effect that as soon as a liberal in comrade's clothing took over everything collapsed, but 50 years before, it was impossible to predict that

I guess I just feel like it's an easier to sell to skeptical people to propose giving people basic needs directly rather than cash.

I think money is easier and requires less work to set up.

It's not about the US but that Russia is getting eclipsed by China who used to be far behind.

Russia has a higher homicide rate, opiate abuse rate, HIV rate, lower life expectancy, and worse PISA scores. Russia only wins on HDI right now but has fallen 3 places since the last recording and China has risen 18 places.

What is Russia even known for industrially aside from mineral extraction? Rosatom? China also has nuclear power with cutting edge tokamak research as well as AI, EV production, photonic quantum computers, semiconductors.

I'm just saying if you want to be a commie shill or a reactionary then China is way better than Russia

>>102447314
Already exists in Scandinavia and Germany and some other European countries. They pay your rent, electricity, water, heating and internet bill and give you an amount somewhere between 700 and 1200USD a month. The catch is they will continually harass you to do “trainings”, send applications and make you come into their offices for “consultations”. I got friends on it and once they showed me all the shit these government offices make them do I honestly thought working ain’t that bad. Funny thing is, someone on unemployment in Germany basically has the same standard of living as someone who’s doing a back-breaking, soul-draining humiliating minimum wage cuck job. It’s weird. All my drug dealers are on it, because the money they make from dealing is basically free spending money on top.

It will happen the day the government realizes they can just give people $100 a month as a starting point.
Like, seriously, all these UBI proposals seem fixated on the notion of, "if you can't live off the money, then it doesn't count!" They make the perfect the enemy of the good.
You need to stop stressing about shit like >>102448871 this. These are all problems for an entire generation or two in the future.
Right now? We need to just hand people small amounts of money, get them accustomed to that money such that they'll be angry if they lose it, and then slowly force the tap open wider and wider as political consensus builds.
In Canada, the "price on carbon" combined with "carbon rebate" was a great example. It's basically a very tiny UBI, because it gives out a flat amount of money to everyone. I'm partly convinced this is the "real" reason Conservatives are fucking rabid about the consumer carbon tax: they are terrified people realize this is a transfer payment and get angry when it's taken away (especially if it starts reaching a few k$ per year).

it will never happen directly. because people will start asking question: "why do we even need our jewish overlords who give us money? why can't we kick them off?"

UBI just exposes the class nature of society. government needs to maintain an illusion of some sort of "social contract".

UBI will is techno-utopian nonsense and ignores some basic facts about human intelligence. I really recommend you read the first few chapters of the Venus Project to see where we're headed. Drop it once the MC is magically bailed out of his rammed-earth apartment he shares with a drug addict because his daddy bought bitcoin shares in Elon Musk's utopia 50 years ago.

There isn't going to be a solution for mass unemployment, because voters fundamentally do not want that. "Why can those people get free money from our tax dollars?" is something you already hear a lot. You will NEVER have a welfare program that can support someone at a middle class, or even subsidence level, without working, that anyone can opt in to. Why would you be allowed to check out of the labor market?

You will be granted a job at minimum wage or below and spend 95% of your take home pay on a combination of rent, transportation, utilities, and food. This is precisely where you are supposed to be. As you weren't born into one of the old or new money families who will benefit from mass automization, and they simply cannot kill all of us off (yet), you are to be reduced to human livestock that makes as little noise and ruckus as possible until you gracelessly expire. The people and politicans who hold the reigns of power will have so much money it will become meaningless - more than it already is for them, even - and spend their days going mad from dopamine poisoning and unlimited free time. You will serve, the value of your labor reduced to nothing between mass immigration destroying low skilled labor and AI destroying high skill labor, until you die. If you stop, you will be made homeless and die in an encampment. If you rebel, you will be killed by the police state. Everything is working as intended, as it has been for the past hundred years.

Please don't fall for the propaganda. Capitalism gives everyone a chance to live well (or it did, haha. Who knows where we'll be in ten years) but nobody can become one of the elites. The lines have already been drawn. If you come up with a product or service that can seriously pose a threat to someone who has power they'll just direct one of their pet companies to buy you out. If you refuse they'll crush you with bullshit lawsuits and legal fees, or launch a competing service that's suspiciously similar and use their massive PR and marketing advantages to grab your customers and crush you into irrelevance.

You ever noticed that a lot of companies that target children and teenagers tend to come in rivalries whereas ones that target adults try to stand on their own? Android vs iPhone, AMD vs Nvidia, Xbox vs PlayStation, Coke vs Pepsi, whereas car companies and sit down restaurants and alcohol brands and cigarettes don't do that type of stuff, they try to fit in a sub-niche to cater to a demographic on their value alone rather than relative to other ones. It's like edgy testosterone-riddled teenagers evolved for warfare and are trying to use the market as a substitute. You know what Coca Cola would be without Pepsi? A weird drink from the 1800s.

Robotics is advancing but not at the same pace as AGI. AGI will just kill the good, fun, intellectually challenging jobs along with a bunch of other comfy ones. It's the death of white collar work, which still means a massive spike in unemployment rate so we'll still need UBI or something like it cause not everyone can just become a plumber overnight

AGI doesn't replace service job like waiters and flipping burger. Coincidentally, the one that can afford to roll out UBI tend to be more than 50% service industry
>inb4 automation
People overestimate automation. Automation is strongly advantageous for job that already require expensive tooling to work with, like software and manufacturing, but not as much for other jobs. The tools for automation isn't free. A lot of jobs can already be automated, but it's not because it's expensive.

For example, farming, US farmers has high productivity due to various tools and machinery, but it's also expensive and without subsidies, they can't compete with third world farmers. US farmers have to spend money for a tractor that cost more than a car, while the third worlder only needs a sickle. Sure, with automation, there are fewer people being a farmer, but you now need more people to build those tractors and farming tools

Read the actual definition of AGI you dumb fucks. AGI by definition is an Artificial intelligence that can perform at a human level at ANY TASK (General). If a human can do it, AGI can do it. Not a single model we have nowadays is AGI or something nearly like AGI. LLMs are not AGI, you're still thinking we will not get out of LLMs in the next 5 years, that's your mistake, WEF though on all of this for their 2030 agenda.

We could very well have a genius scifi level AI tomorrow and it still wouldn't change the fact that robotics are not there yet, setting up the infrastructure will take years, robot parts aren't free and you can't just tell the miners in Africa nor the manufacturers in China to just hand that shit to you for free.

The problem with UBI is that every time a proposal makes it to the point where it's a serious proposal and not just people bullshitting on a Mongolian basket weaving forum, it's neither universal nor basic.
>Everyone gets it except people who choose to use existing welfare programs instead
>Everyone gets it except people who make more than a certain amount of money
>Everyone gets it, but it scales with earned income
>Everyone gets it, but it scales with size of household
>Everyone gets it, but it scales based on location
None of these are UBI. This is what UBI actually is:
>Everyone gets a flat amount of money per month
It's that simple. Part of the thing that makes UBI a potentially good idea is that there's a massive reduction in overhead compared to existing welfare programs. There's not literal tons of paperwork to be done to determine who's eligible and redetermine whether they're eligible every 6 months, and make sure that they're trying to get a job, and kick them out of the program of they're not trying to get a job, and kick them out of the program if they're too busy trying to get a job to fill out yet another form, and all of that bullshit. You just need to check that each person exists, is a citizen, and hasn't died. That's it, no additional bullshit. Then they get a deposit for the same amount as everyone else.

Flat tax proposals have the same problem. It's an idea that could make a lot of sense if you didn't think too hard about it and just let it be simple, but instead everyone fucks up every proposal with a bunch of bullshit to the point where it's just as convoluted as what we have now and adopting it would just be changing things for the sole purpose of change and not to make things better.

>you're still thinking we will not get out of LLMs in the next 5 years, that's your mistake
That's not a mistake. LLMs (and image versions) are somewhat effective because there's ready-made training data i.e. the text and images scraped from the internet. But these models are already reaching the limit of what they can do. Regardless, what else can ML be applied to? Code, pehaps? LLMs can generate code if it's interpreted simply as text, and this is effective to an extent. But the problem with code is that the code itself does not include the logic or purpose behind that code, and there is almost never sufficient text associated with complicated code to explain it. Most code cannot be used or understood in an effective way without a human, and there is no known way of efficiently encoding that on a machine. This is actually similar to the limitations of LLMs with simple text. Text is usually not self-contained. It requires a human to interpret it, and the apparatus of that interpretation is much more complicated than the text itself. None of that apparatus is available to the machine, and we have no apparent way of making it available. Perhaps one day with some kind of brain scanning. But we are a long way from decoding most functions of the brain, even if neuralink and such can make some shitty little interfaces (and they are not much different from what's been done for decades). Even if such brain function extraction were possible, which is far beyond existing tech, an ML model of it would presumably take vastly more computing power than text-based LLMs, which are already pushing the limits of technology and industrial capacity.
