    I’m honestly a little confused by your comment. What do you mean? Perhaps some elaboration on my part will help us understand each other.

    I honestly think that those are the two possible outcomes.

    Unionization is a movement that is geared towards protecting the workers, but it’s not enough. Only UBI will be enough to keep average joes from falling into poverty.

    The other alternative is that the workers fall into poverty, deeper and deeper, until they are fed up and revolt. If this happens it will be similar to past revolutions, but the general population is not only literate, they possess vast knowledge about engineering, chemistry, IT, and various other topics that were beyond the grasp of the lowest castes in the past.

    I’m not parodying anything. AI is (currently) a paper tiger that many IT companies are pouring resources into to try and secure funding, but it’s not going to save the rich from an uprising.

      Good comments. And this divide is global, not national.

      Well, more or less global.

      I’d like to see the governments of the word fight a global guerrilla force.
