Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

And they begin to become kind of the rulers.

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

I don't know if you've given any thought to that, but like what is what is the driver behind this anti this backlash to wealth inequality?

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

Is this really all just kind of a proxy battle here for for power?

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

Right.

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

Is that what's what's really in contention in the American political system?

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

So say we give them a cushion, right?

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

But say on the other side of that, Dario is more right than everybody else.

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

And there's actually like no real job on the other side.

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

Then do we get to a UBI?

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

Like, what do you think about that?

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

And there's some other interesting ideas, like the idea of a tax per token, per AI token generated, where you're just like taxing AI at the source of, you know, consumption.

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

Or there's the idea of creating kind of a sovereign wealth fund, almost the way resource rich countries and oil and natural gas kind of do.

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

And so we take a percent of AI and we create sort of a sovereign wealth fund that all citizens own.

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

Any of these ideas appealing?

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

Are they too radical to think about right now?

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

Jasmine, I think one of my biggest fears is something you said earlier, which is like AI populism wins out to such an extent that decelerationists kind of win the day and we just like kill this technology.

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

We say not in our technology,

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

not in our county not in our state not in our country and then it moves somewhere else maybe it moves offshore and we lose the benefits of it we lose the productivity gains we lose the labor enhancement maybe another country gets these instead

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

And I hope we don't go too far in that direction.

Bankless
AI Populism: Warning Shots Before 2028 | Jasmine Sun

Maybe the direction critics would say Europe has gone in, in some areas, in some ways, you know, Germany with nuclear, for example, moratorium on nuclear power generation.
