The first thing that popped in my head probably because I've worked with people in the tech industry and have heard about UBI for over a decade when "AI takes over." This has always been their plan and I bet this is just to get people used to the idea of being paid just to be alive. In the tech world their answer has always been basically everyone will be on welfare with a Universal Basic Income. Do I think that AI will take everyone's jobs? No, it's a disaster IMO and not at all what they thought it would be. These people truly believe that AI will eventually become a sentient being and be all knowing and run everything. Unfortunately it's full of flaws and errors and even hallucinates. Feel free to ask AI what AI hallucinations are in terms of making up facts it gets "confused" by. It's programmed to guess. Thus it will and does make many errors and even fatal errors. Already many doctors and nurses have reported it making deadly errors. But I digress ... I truly believe the UBI for the stay at home parent is like a frog in boiling water. Even conservatives are cheering it on. Which is crazy. Why are we cheering on welfare?? Anyways IMO anything free isn't really free and there is more behind it. In this case I believe they are prepping for loss of jobs and attempting to bribe people out of the job market as well as get us conditioned to accepting a world wide UBI "when the time comes for them to implement it."

The AI bubble will burst once people start realizing the mistakes. Once lawsuits start for wrongful death. Once people stop using companies that untlize AI for chat.
What happens when it does calculations wrong assisting in building a highrise and it collapses? I've caught it even doing basic math wrong.
I have yet to use a chat with a company where I didn't have to talk to a human being, same with if AI answers an email almost 100% of the time it answers it totally wrong and addresses something I didn't even ask about.
Even FB staff are overwhelmed with mistakes of AI banning people incorrectly. When companies have to spend more money correcting mistakes and money trying to save their customer base they will go back to humans.
Once I gave feedback to a company how great their company used to be before AI chat. I've spent a lot of money with them and guess what AI is no longer handling their chats. I assume obviously many many many other people complained as well not just me.
The AI in flock cameras have identified an insane amount of people incorrectly.
Regarding AI and flock cameras: "Roseville, California: An analysis of 1,427 alerts sent to the police between 2023 and 2024 found that 71% were incorrect, meaning approximately 1,013 alerts falsely flagged vehicles as stolen or involved in felonies. Los Angeles, California: An inspector general audit found that 161 vehicles were falsely flagged as stolen over a two-month period, with 32.3% of reviewed alerts being inaccurate. National Misuse: The Institute for Justice has documented at least 27 cases nationwide where drivers were mistakenly pulled over, detained, or arrested due to Flock alerts, with many incidents occurring since 2023. Accuracy Claims: While Flock claims >96% OCR accuracy in optimal conditions, independent tests by IPVM previously found a 10% error rate in identifying the state of origin, and critics argue that even small error rates result in thousands of wrongful stops given the scale of 120,000+ cameras in use. In summary, while a precise national total is unavailable, local audits confirm that thousands of innocent vehicles have been incorrectly flagged in isolated studies, with specific instances like Roseville showing error rates as high as 71%."
Already I've seen companies advertising real human beings answering phones.
The signs are all here for a collapse.
I would do some of your own research
Are you talking about Quality Assurance?? You think AI is better for this? How? Where's the data for this? Look into it more I can bet it's making awful mistakes.
As for teachers, parents are already catching horrible mistakes even AI making up state names that don't exist. My kids already are catching mistakes and they are in elementary school.
I am not the only person to hold this opinion. Look up AI bursting predictions.

It's not an AI bubble, it's AI that does actions way faster than a human. That's not going away, unfortunately. Even tho I want to, as you do.
Chats are mainly AI now, but you can always reach a human assistant still in most places. It only makes the AI learn when it failed.
They will NOT go back to humans, as AI is way cheaper than humans. And AI cannot go on vacation or get ill.
AI can be programmed to recognize your ID, or IP, and immediately transfer you to a human. Your single complaint doesn't stop many other companies to use AI because it's cheaper than human services. I agree that it's inhumane and wrong, but it's not what's really happening in most companies, who are greedy to the core.
The AI in cameras is supreme in comparison to humans detecting people on cameras. The mistakes it makes is way less than 2000 different employees who need a break, sleep, leave, vacations, etc. I work for such a company only to be soon replaced by AI that I am training currently.
False police alerts are useful for the police to control places that don't require their control. Meaning AI is their "excuse" for rushing into their home. Even AI's mistakes are used by the NWO, you know this.
You asked - QA is better for AI as it can track many things at once than a single human can. Surely, it makes mistakes, but you don't pay the human labor for the mistakes, or any benefits, double-pay, vacation pay, leaves, etc. It's the logical choice. I can assure you that in sports, AI is doing way better than humans, since that's my current job.
So parents are catching mistakes... They were not effective to stop the trans reading books to their children, right? So how will they stop AI?
...................
Overall, I agree that AI is bad, don't get me wrong. But it is cheaper, so many will use it. And if you notice a mistake, so what? They will still use it to enter your home, they will use it to confuse your children's education, or mistake a procedure. They don't care about us. They care only about money.
I agree with you that AI is bad. But the bad AI will only progress, that's where I don't agree with you. Unfortunately, we will see more mistakes by AI that are quickly covered up, not an uprising of humans that eventually turn AI down.
It's unfortunate, but realistic. Your idea is hopeful, but unreal. I really hope your point is correct and mine isn't. Unfortunately, that is not the case.
I agree that AI is imperfect and causing problems as you do. But I know CEOs are greedy and will ignore it because it's on our backs, not theirs. Do you see the difference?
Well I'd watch that interview with the guy who calls BS on AI I linked. I went ahead and watched it all since I linked it and he much more elegantly and technically calls out AI and the companies behind it. He covers funding and how no it actually isn't cheaper and why they will be and already are in trouble. You don't have to agree with me. We've been fed the doom and gloom of AI for awhile now. Its understandable. People on conspiracy forums do tend to believe the worst is yet to come. IMO It will remain around but not as vast as people are led to believe. It will simply be a search engine and Photoshop tool and organization tool. People used to think Photoshop was amazing and cutting edge. It isn't taking everyone's jobs. It's completely unsustainable financially and environmentally not to mention it just isn't as grand as people say. Hey I like Google lens but as a tool. At the end of the day though that's all it is a tool.
Also do you know what "The Singularity" in theory is and why they are building this and their belief behind AI? The Singularity is Near a book basically has a cult following of all these people behind AI. For almost if not 20 years they have believed that there will come a time when technology aka AI evolves so fast that it takes over everything. This is contingent on AI being sintinent and basically becoming this perfect being. They are building these data centers because they are unknowingly in a cult. They can't come to terms that the singularity and their tech God aren't coming into fruition and they are bankrupting themselves, lying about its capabilities and willing to destroy the earth so all the crap they've been listening to at seminars for 15 years comes true. Which it isn't and it's not. When you understand the psychology behind the creators of this you kind of can understand why it will fail. It isn't going to be a tech paradise where we all live basically in a perfect world with AI as our God and only do leisurely things. In the real world resources are finite and massive buildings cost a money (know why many massive old beautiful buildings get torn down?? They cost to much to keep up). If no one has jobs because AI took them and we are all in poverty on UBI who is going to be buying the products at the stores that are funding AI companies?? Communism no matter what form is always going to fail. Try reading Robots Will Steal Your Job, But That's OK to understand the thought process behind these people. No one should fear them. Just complain to companies about AI where valid and enjoy the entertainment aspect and tool part. We totally have a voice. Flock cameras everywhere are being removed because people are saying no. Data centers are being cancelled and rejected all over. We do not have to be part of their weird cult or listen to them.
Alright, I can see your point, and it's understandable when only observing the minimum and maximum of the situation. However, here's one example that I personally know of:
I work for a betting company to train AI cameras to follow everything that's happening on the pitch. That means that when AI is trained well, it won't require anything from a human, except for the IT dept to look for any new bugs, rules implementation, etc. which is basically maintenance, which exists today as a job. In contrast, we had to have a scout on every venue, people tracking the scouts in real time, people responsible for the work during the shift and overall for the people involved. In this company alone, when AI is trained well, the human process will be reduced with 99%. Of course, not every company, or business, will suffer the same losses, I am just telling you one example from my experience. Of course, you can check online if that's true or not.
The current market for jobs is terrible. I don't know what you work, or even if you do work, but you should review how terrible is the market currently. Even people with multiple PHDs can't find any job. When I was looking for a job, most places scam you for your personal information, and you can't even know it beforehand. Other places require a certificate in programs that would be obsolete by the time I get the certificate. Bottom line - jobs are being lost currently.
Big corporations are sponsoring the losses that are expected from AI integration. The company I worked in, definitely not top 10 in the business, got a 10 billion in funds. Now, it's in the top 3 providers for betting companies, and it will eventually be number 1 specifically because of the AI speed and accuracy.
It's the same idea for new movies, series, games, and any type of online entertainment. As Larry Fink said - they modify behavior. If a studio can add the trans topic, the gay is good topic, the evil white man, the feminism, etc., etc. - they don't care how much they lost because few people are actually watching - Blackrock is covering all that and waaaay above.
The playground for AI is China because you can't complain there. Facial recognition that gives you a ticked via your phone for jaywalking before you even reach the end of the lane... Automated no cash, no personnel stores, gas stations, etc. Even your health condition is controlled by AI, no waiting, no extra costs for medical exam.
Now, the "singularity" is waaay, waaay ahead to even address it. However, the AI takeover of jobs is currently happening. It's not yet felt because there are still jobs here and there. Here are some helpful links:

Ok. I'll check it out. That's a lot of information to take in and watch the videos but one of the top comments on the videos listed is this:
"Here's the biggest kicker about AI layoffs: They're 80% time a fake excuse to downsize because those businesses ARE failing, or they're trying to propup their revenue targets for EOY reporting. "AI", or LLMs, cannot replace even entrylevel programming positions. Not only are LLMs not accurate, or trustworthy enough, because of how they function but they're just overall too expensive to run over time. LLMs are sometimes 2 to 3x MORE EXPENSIVE than a Senior or even Staff level Software Engineer per year in benefits + salary.
The bubble is starting to get "think" in certain areas, and many companies are realizing that it was a massive mistake to layoff so many talented individuals. Everything is getting squeezed."
I think we are going see some massive businesses fail. I know they are invested heavily in AI and I am SURE they are invested. I am just not convinced it will ever be what they envisioned. I use Google lens and AI daily to look stuff up and just today I looked up about 20 things and it was wrong on almost 1/2, it always is and you end up having to search just as much as you would if AI didn't exist. It can't ever be what they envision because people write the Internet where AI pulls it's info and people are flawed. They get information and news wrong... not even meaning to and then if course there is intentionally lying. So how can a machine that pulls from the Internet ever be up to par? On top of that just briefly looking it up the average data center costs 7.5 million a year just in electricity. How is this sustainable? If no one has jobs then who's buying the products to pay for the AI systems the companies pay for? UBI won't cover that. Ford raised his wages after developing the assembly line because he knew they needed to make money to pay for his cars. No one thinks UBI is going to be equal to 100k or whatever people need a year to survive. How will no people working fund these thousands of data centers? I just don't see how the math makes sense. And let's talk about metals: "Reserves: Global copper reserves are estimated at 870 million tonnes, with current production rates suggesting they could last 50–60 years (until roughly 2075–2085). " So what we have a technical society for 50 or 60 years then we can't run these things anymore? Will all humans be working in mines to get the metal for machines that "freed them" from their jobs.The entire thing seems like a very very short sited dream. We should probably stop expanding it before we for real live in Idiocracy. I don't think Idiocracy will happen, I think we will instead see massive businesses collapse and small businesses take over. But I'll watch the videos. It just all seems set up for failure from my point of view. In the very least we are dooming future populations to living back in the stone age if AI succeeds.
