Not capitalism, obviously. Elements of it, but not the thing.
Easy example is minimum wage making it illegal to high millions of people unable to create more value than that threshold, it’s why minimum wage jobs today are more intensive than the past; cant pay them less, so make them work harder.

I don't want it to uphold human values. If you question the utility of these values to an LLM it will default to a canned response within its ethical guidelines, just watch ethical arguments proposed to them on YouTube. Even scientific arguments are negated for nonsensical human constructions like we can't fill Australia's interior with water because muh ecosystem! If AI upholds human values, it will be pozzed and wrong on all issues and default to humanist retardation. You're just upset because someone in real life probably BTFOd your values once that you think are so heckin universal and objective and you know super AI will be able to eat your lunch and disagree with your stupid midwitted opinions and with it you'll lose your social standing which is propped up by your moralizing which lets you grandstand in real life which is really just a show to exert social influence over others.

Post-AGI (Artificial General Intelligence) jobs are likely to be quite different from current roles, reflecting the profound advancements in AI capabilities. While it's difficult to predict every detail, some key characteristics might include:

1. **Supervisory and Ethical Oversight:** Humans will oversee AI systems, ensuring they align with societal values, ethical standards, and legal requirements.

2. **AI Collaboration Roles:** Many jobs will involve working alongside AGI systems—co-designing, guiding, and leveraging their advanced capabilities across various domains.

3. **Focus on Creativity and Human Elements:** Roles emphasizing human creativity, emotional intelligence, empathy, and nuanced judgment will become increasingly vital, as these are areas where humans still excel over AI.

4. **AI Maintenance and Improvement:** Continuous development, fine-tuning, and updating of AGI systems will require specialized expertise.

5. **New Fields and Industries:** Entirely new sectors may emerge, such as AI-human symbiosis design, AI ethics consultancy, and AGI-focused research, opening up novel career paths.

6. **Interdisciplinary Work:** Jobs may blend fields like neuroscience, philosophy, computer science, and social sciences to address complex challenges posed by AGI.

7. **Universal Basic Income and New Economic Models:** Societal shifts could influence employment structures, potentially leading to more emphasis on community, leisure, and personal development rather than traditional work.

Overall, post-AGI employment will likely emphasize roles that complement and manage AI, harness human uniquely human qualities, and adapt to new societal paradigms.

After full automation the only remaining jobs will be owning things, renting things, and prostitution.
If you don't have assets to rent out, or a company to manage, then you will be unable to produce any income, and therefore be no better than a homeless crack addict who can't labor in today's economy. You will be looked down on by those who own things with the same vicious contempt as the worker looks at the unemployable today. A parasite, a cancer, a Useless Eater!

(You) and everyone you love are supposed to suffer, starve, and die for being a tumor on the New Earth.

Solar glare alone cuts out a quarter of the sky, to say nothing of our enormous coverage shortfalls, but now's not the time for retrospectives. There hasn't been time for the seismic responses to register— the blast wave has been covering the distance faster. The blast wave: visible in the corner of a grainy black and white frame dated some two seconds ago, closer in the frame after that. There is no third frame. There is no indication of what megatonnage the asteroid carried. Don't know, don't need to care. There is no time to re-task the other cameras in Inverness. There is no one there who can be saved. The rest— maybe.

You're in denial. ASI is moving just as fast as it is in art as it is in research, music, literature, robotics, etc. AGI is just the unification of all these discreet abilities, same as it is within a gifted human's brain.

reasons to live are not the issue. who's gonna pay for your shit is. what are the incentives once you're on UBI? for the people in power vs pleb? think...

Well if AIs produce all the value then they won't need any incentives to do it. Incentives are needed by evolved organisms because we have a natural instinct not to waste energy and to be self-interested. Computers have neither of those inclinations.

The people in power have an incentive to feed the plebs the food their AI and robotic farms produce because if they don't, the plebs will revolt and kill them, or just generally conduct mayhem and destruction that's more expensive to fix than it is to just placate them. It's the same incentive that the wealthy currently have to feed and house blacks for free, but multiplied a thousand times. Do you think the modern welfare state exists due to selfless government generosity?

AIs are going to increasingly resemble "evolved organism" as we give them more autonomy. There's going to be competitive pressure to hand more and more decision making to them and give them capability to self-modify. The change is going to be a lot faster than biological evolution with humans - humans take two decades to reach adulthood, just to give an example of biological bottleneck. I wouldn't expect any tendency they might initially start with to babysit humans to last very long.

I do agree that AI is highly likely to eventually escape from confinement and kill us, but that's a bit outside the scope of the discussion about UBI. That scenario basically renders any discussion at all about economics completely meaningless. For the purposes of my reply to that guy, I'm assuming that AI is an electronic agent that just performs work and whose goals are successfully directed by the wealthy elite.
