It's also, I will say, it's something that I don't think anybody feels very confident about knowing what to do because-

Like Ryan said, a lot of the impacts haven't played out yet.

We are going to need a different policy situation for if we see slow and gradual job displacement versus we actually do get this big apocalypse or job shock.

Or maybe we get no job shock at all.

Maybe everything's fine.

And then we shouldn't do anything crazy.

But I do think we should be planning for those different scenarios.

I think that...

Pretty likely to me seems like we're going to need some tax and redistribute for like corporate and capital gains taxes.

Like if it is true that a ton of money basically flows to these AI infrastructure companies, for example, and they get way, way, way bigger than everything else in the economy.

Finding the right way to do tax and redistribution is pretty important.

What do you spend on if you're going to redistribute?

I think that some are like longer unemployment insurance, like right now in California where I live.

You get six months of unemployment insurance.

I think if we start to see a lot of AI displacement of these longtime jobs, people generally need more than six months to learn a new skill.

Maybe you need 12 months or two years of unemployment insurance.

There's things like universal health care start to become relevant because one thing that I expect in an AI world is you're going to have more entrepreneurship and small business capital and more

freelancers and small business people, right?

It's less like you have a giant firm that employs like millions of people, not millions, but like tens of thousands of people or thousands of people.

You're going to have more one person companies, people doing startups, people doing small businesses, that person with a yoga studio or their event planning thing or whatever.
