There will never be UBI in America, we'll have 60% unemployment within 5 years

Some kind of UBI will be necessary, or there will be food and water riots...
I also think it will be more like 15 years. Before AI takes all of our jobs there's going to be a renaissance of new AI tools and "creators," making their own art and videogames and movies, all just by interacting with their "personal assistant."
That will wipe out 20–50 percent of white collar jobs within 10 years.
The robotics revolution, in conjunction with AI, will eventually erode the blue collar jobs. And that's when unemployment is going to get really bad.
The only people who will still be working will be "executives" and "politicians," and they will only be meat puppets.
Unless, of course, we do something about it heh

There won't be any riots, I'm pretty convinced that there's nothing that will happen in the United States that will cause people to form a collective riot. I think people will just die in their homes without fighting back
