You edited the comment. So I'll reply to the second part here you get the notification.
I'm rich. Not rich rich.
I'm closer to you than I am to the companies that are gonna rule AI (Microsoft, Google and others). I can't do things on that level.
My capability in this field would be closer to a normal person.

To be clear, im not pissed about you being rich, im just pissed about how instead of solving the problem and bringing wealth to all of society (including yourself), you just want to be part of the ruling class. If everything can be fully automated, money has no place in society. Instead of thinking about how you will go from being one of the 99.9% on UBI to the 0.1% who have unimaginable riches, you should think about how we as humans will allow ALL humans to benefit from the unimaginable riches.

If that happens then I would be extremely happy. I would be very much content with that future where everyone is rich and money is useless.
But if shit goes sideways and it's a post apocalyptic thing for poor people, then I'm sorry. I'd like the backup of being rich enough to be a part of that society. Especially considering the fact that it's just gonna get harder to make money after a while.
You have to understand. I have to at least have a backup plan for myself.
