So i've been really interested in AI and automation recently, and (for some reason) in the economic implications. And the solution i've seen to it is the Universal Basic Income, which on paper looks great.
But I was wondering, what is everyone here's opinion of it? I'm trying to do my own research into how it would actually work out, but obvious it's based on a lot of ifs and maybes. I know this is more economics than computing, but i do think there is an overlap, seeing as it's a problem essentially caused by us.
If you aren't aware of it, here is a good explanation (its a really short, easy to understand explanation, don't worry):

I'd love to hear any opinions from people much smarter than me, there is the chance that this is our future after all
Thanks,
Danny
