Mathematics has enough cultural capital within the AI companies that they get to have this "advisory board".

Nobody else is getting that. When/If the severe impacts on labor materialize, workers won't get an advisory board. They will just get fired, and the companies will celebrate it as efficiency wins.

I think it's time to get very very real about regulation/taxation. Token/Compute sales tax that gets redistributed as UBI?

Mathematics is just one of the first fields where models are better than humans and it is inconfutable.

Workers will get many boards for sure, you are underestimating unions and protests, it just won't be accepted that there isn't any job for people. The change will be diluted, to try to make economy absorb it.

> inconfutable

What a seriously cool archaic word.

Unfortunately the general population are going to have to hurt more before they begin being open to those options, assuming they don’t try to kill ai in general.
