    Tax them, fine, great. But this does absolutely nothing to address the fundamental exploration of intellectual labor of the creative class at the heart of the problem with generative AI.

    I think Bernie is simply too old and out of touch to navigate this issue.

      I think you missed the “hundreds of billions of dollars annually in direct payments to Americans and programs such as health care, education and housing,” at that point people can be creative on their own terms.

        Living in government housing while my art and music is being exploited for the profit of the richest men in the world doesn’t sound like a good future to me.

        And what good is subsidized higher education if there are no jobs left for human beings? Are they going to pay for our bread and circuses too, while they rob us blind and live on private islands?

        Again, we need to address the root of the problem here: AI is built on the corporate exploitation of intellectual labor.

          your thinking to much in terms of jobs. why do you work jobs. to get the housing. think about the fediverse and local spaces and how much easier it would be to get away from the corporate crap.
