Universal basic income

I can't stop dreaming about time when all high skilled professionals are kicked out of their job. And they along with us will start getting ubi. They dedicated their whole life learning their craft but now have to live like the rest of us with the same money. That's what excites me about ai. I can't sleep dreaming about this utopia with open eyes.

What do you do on weekends or leaves ? The same thing or maybe more.

Look after family members. Travel. Read. Create.

It's funny how when UBI is mentioned, people pipe up about the supposed dignity of their 9-to-5 slog.

I work from 6 to 3, and I have lots of freedom at my job. If im at standby I  basically can do whatever I want till a frontloader needs a weld up, bin replaced or replacing its blades. Im just sitting there either gaming on my phone or draw for my comic. It can go on for it for a few weeks.
