What do we do when AI replaces everybody?

@deadgerbil the government is not going to want a bunch of lazy people living off the system/ people affected by AI aren't going to be assisted.

@Woofwoof15 if AI takes over the vast majority of jobs, people who can't get a job wouldn't be lazy.

The gov will have to strike a balance if it doesn't want people living off of the system, but people living off of the system is the only realistic option. All the work is being done by AI and people in charge of the gov and big business should nip their own greed in the bud and give away all the profits they make to the community, given that money is no longer going into the community from people working and there would literally be no option to work

That sounds like Arnie in Rise of the Machines... @deadgerbil

@QuietSophie exactly this. But the only thing we'll see is the wealthy people making excuses as to why they should keep all the money they make from not employing people and turning to AI

@deadgerbil Initially they will, but ultimately nobody can make a profit if there is mass poverty and no money circulating.
