I watched an extra credits video the other day that touched on this thought;

one option is to have AA studios / publishers fund teams of "indie" devs with license to go nuts exploring new aspects of the medium.

Personally, since we're running full-tilt towards needing something to replace "jobs," I'd like to hope that, at some point, that some places ( countries, planets(?)) might institute a universal minimum income, along with a flat-rate fair tax.
