Giving people cash through a Basic Income could help to remedy any unemployment brought about by superhuman AI systems which price human labour out of jobs
Conner, love it. I generally skim articles on AI because I am just so darned tired of hearing about it, but you present an actionable series of solutions to potential AI problems.
A LVT seems like an obvious choice to fund some kind of UBI, but when you say 1 a percent levy are you talking land value or rental value? We should be able to do at least 50 percent on land rental value, ideally 80 percent over time.
I also have an essay coming out about using Carbon Taxes to supplement a UBI, and another coming soon about a DBCFT, all three could be powerful in terms of taxing negative externalities/rents for redistribution, helping society overcome the challenges presented by AI.
On that note, I'd like to invite you to check out Risk+Progess as there is quite a degree of overlap in topics (housing, taxes, ubi, quadratic voting...etc): https://www.lianeon.org/
