Artificial intelligence isn’t a good argument for basic income
One of the largest-ever studies on basic income in the US suggests it can benefit people with low incomes, even if AI doesn't steal anyones job. The study gave 1,000 recipients $1,000 per month, no strings attached, and its one of the biggest and longest trials ever run on direct cash giving.

Q&A: AI vs. the metaverse — How artificial intelligence might change the future of the internet
Author and investor Matthew Ball has revised and expanded his book The Metaverse: And How It Will Revolutionize Everything. Big tech moved on to a much more immediate and seemingly concrete futuristic subject: artificial intelligence.

Context

The rise of generative artificial intelligence (AI) presents significant challenges and opportunities across various sectors, particularly in the context of national security and economic stability. Demographically, the U.S. population is diverse, with varying levels of access to technology and education, which can influence how AI is adopted and its impacts on different communities. The potential for misinformation generated by AI tools raises concerns about social cohesion and trust in institutions, especially in a politically polarized environment.

Economically, the AI market is projected to grow substantially, with small businesses in states like Michigan beginning to explore its applications. However, this growth comes with the risk of job displacement, as a significant portion of businesses using AI aim to replace human workers. This could exacerbate income inequality, particularly if basic income initiatives, like the one studied in the U.S., are not widely implemented.

Geographically, the U.S. and its allies, such as Singapore, are collaborating on AI and data analytics to ensure a free and open Indo-Pacific, reflecting a strategic military consideration. The Pentagon's focus on safe AI deployment underscores the importance of maintaining technological superiority while mitigating risks associated with AI misuse.

National security is further complicated by the contrasting approaches of the U.S. and China towards AI development. While the U.S. emphasizes ethical considerations and stakeholder involvement, China's centralized approach poses a challenge to Western liberal values. As AI continues to evolve, balancing its benefits with ethical use and verification will be crucial for safeguarding democratic principles and ensuring a stable economic future.
