I expect less white collar IC work.

I expect more small businesses.

I expect more relational sector work.

I expect more people who go through these periods of losing their job and needing to find a new thing to do.

And like, how do we plan policies that are going to train people that are going to give people a little bit of a cushion so that it doesn't ruin your life if you're like in this period of like vast technological change?

I think we should think about them.

I think that like researchers should start to plan out what that would look like if it looks like we're moving on more track to a Dario world, which again, I would say right now we are not on that path.

But if it seems like we're ticking towards that path, I would prefer if some research had already been done.

I mean,

you know, Sam Altman did that UBI pilot a while ago, right?

And it wasn't like he tried just giving a bunch of people money and running a randomized controlled trial on to see what people did with that money.

One thing I often wonder is what is the next version of that?

Do we need to do a pilot of a jobs guarantee?

Do we need to do a pilot of some of these other programs so that if we hit a world with truly mass unemployment, we can

know what the better options are.

I think a public wealth fund is interesting.

I think like the Norway model is pretty interesting.

Shorter work weeks are one that I think about a lot because again, like lump of labor fallacy, like in a world where humans are always necessary, you don't want to do that.

But

I think that like if humans are able to do less and less tasks because machines can literally just do the vast majority of tasks you ever could imagine because they're just smarter and more capable in all dimensions.
