Universal Basic Income, Digital ID and Biometric Surveillance
Massive AI-driven unemployment is expected to lead to demands for Universal Basic Income (UBI), which Bruner warns will be set at poverty levels. Access to these payments will likely be tied to the adoption of digital identities and biometric surveillance systems, such as Sam Altman's Worldcoin. This infrastructure creates a closed loop where financial survival is dependent on compliance with a centralized, digital social credit system.
