While this may have some truth to it; the transition from todays world to that will be violent,bloody and painful.

Wishful thinking. Soon we will have a world where even if you make something truly unique and original i will be able to replicate it within seconds without your permission. Money may not go away but it will have to evolve.

Put a local copy of wikipedia on an external harddrive. Its smaller than what you think and is basically the encyclopedia of the internet.

Humans and Dinosaurs missed each other by about 65 million years

Reply to Private UBI by SantoshiEspada

It would be awesome if someone like Elon Musk would start a private company called UBI. The purpose of this company would be to function as a hedgefund for the people. The way you would do it is first determine how much you want someone to survive off of from birth to death. Then you invest enough in an interest bearing account to generate that much.

So if you want to make 100k per year you might have to invest 10million.

So that "employee" will generate 100k to live off per year wbile your initial investment stays with the company.

Once that persons 100 year trust fund is up the original prinicple returns to the company and is reissued to a new "employee" .

It wouldnt work for everyone in the short term but might be a way to wean ourselves off the capitalist machine that is destined to destroy us.

I feel like we keep seeing worse and worse predictions and noons does anything impactful about it. Like I heard all the ocean life will be dead by 2050 a few years ago but nothing has really changed.
