We'll probably end up with some sort at UBI at some point in the future, but it will be essentially the equivalent of welfare, not some middle class income.
It will be interesting. I have one starting college pretty soon and I'm struggling a little with how to guide her.
I hate the idea of UBI on principle. I think there will still be many jobs that can't be replaced by AI, and perhaps competition (and salaries) will rise for these. Here's what Grok said:
quote:
Here are 10 jobs that are unlikely to be fully replaced by AI due to their reliance on uniquely human skills, creativity, emotional intelligence, or complex physical tasks:
Therapist/Counselor: The deep emotional connection, empathy, and nuanced understanding required in therapy are difficult for AI to replicate authentically.
Social Worker: Addressing complex human needs, navigating sensitive social situations, and advocating for individuals require human judgment and compassion.
Surgeon: While AI can assist, the precision, adaptability, and critical decision-making in complex surgeries still demand human expertise.
Creative Artist (e.g., Painter, Musician, Writer): Original artistic creation relies on human imagination, emotional depth, and cultural context that AI struggles to match.
Clergy/Spiritual Leader: Providing spiritual guidance and emotional support rooted in personal faith and human connection is inherently human.
Early Childhood Educator: Nurturing young children involves emotional bonding, intuition, and adaptability that AI cannot fully emulate.
High-Level Strategist (e.g., CEO, Policy Maker): Setting vision, navigating ambiguous human dynamics, and making high-stakes decisions require human intuition and leadership.
Field Researcher (e.g., Anthropologist, Wildlife Biologist): Conducting hands-on research in unpredictable environments demands human adaptability and contextual understanding.
Artisan/Craftsperson (e.g., Custom Furniture Maker): Handcrafted work requiring unique skill, creativity, and tactile expertise is hard for AI to replicate.
Emergency First Responder (e.g., Firefighter, Paramedic): Quick, life-or-death decisions in chaotic, unpredictable situations rely on human courage and situational awareness.

I think people won’t have specialized long term career arcs anymore … people have multiple intense short term careers throughout their lives
the real horrible part is our education system is already so broken and performs poorly setting people up for current career success…how do we pivot education and educators to start teaching AI? this pivot is going to happen to way slowly at the bloated education department level, teachers aren’t smart enough to teach it…and don’t even start with low performing inner city schools.
parents are going to have to teach young kids these skills themselves…the weird thing is AI itself can be used to set up to help you teach it too

I'm a couple of years behind you bud. Oldest daughter is starting HS in the fall. She's really freaking smart - much smarter than myself or my wife. And I'm already thinking about what advice and guidance we will need to give her in just a couple of years.

Have you seen any job postings lately? Let alone what is considered "entry-level"?
5+ years experience needed for entry level roles. How does one get experience without getting a role?
So you think people are just going to be able to adapt to multiple short-term careers? bruh, we can't even get a job right now

Most of these aren’t desired now so what’s to say they will be prevalent in future lol

Use to be you could say that sex worker would be safe.
But with the sexbots they are working on, I'm not sure that is safe.

They'll probably be more desired when/if they are the only jobs paying.

I do too but what do we do if we get to a point where we have 25% unemployment or something crazy like that? I think we are decades away from this though. These things always take way longer to come true than predicted.

Im not underestimating it. Advancement in technology has shifted where humans were useful for all of our history. AI is technology, just like the cotton gin and the internal combustion engine and arc welding.
Also, you cant underestimate human resistance to replacement.

AI is definitely destroying my job. It's doing 50% of the work my project team was doing less than 10 years ago and it would probably be more if not for legacy clients and projects. We also outsource stuff to India to smooth out the rough patches in AI. We haven't hired anybody new in 7 or 8 years. People just leave, get laid off, die or retire and are never replaced. The work flows get smaller and smaller too and the clients expect to pay less and less.
The superstars will get to hang around and "manage" the AI but the rest of us are probably toast. Not sure what I'm going to do as my job is niche specific. Maybe I can learn how to be a TV/VCR repairman. They still need those, right?

Each hvac will have 10 repairmen at this point

I think jobs will change but still be available. It's definitely interesting. I have a job that is both writing-intensive and relationship-based. I use AI every single day to write stuff for me but the interpersonal relationship piece could never be replaced by AI.

And people said peepers were fools. 
Teach your kids how to hunt and fish (this should have already happened), small engine repair. Theses are thing you can do as fun and does not hurt anyone ore sound an alarm. These are thing you should have already been doing for your kids regardless of AI.

Always said anarchy and the collapse of the government is the only way to true reform.
