AI risk-seeking factions push for a trillion-dollar UBI solution to potential unemployment, sparking controversy.

CoinFeed reported on May 25th, citing Dossier.today, that AI executives, including Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei and co-founder Chris Olah, are pushing for a "preventative universal basic income (UBI)" to address potential mass unemployment caused by AI. The article notes that Amodei described AI as a "general labor substitute" in a lengthy article, Olah stated in a Vatican speech that large-scale replacement of human labor would bring "historical moral responsibility," and OpenAI CEO Sam Altman is also pushing for UBI pilot programs.
