I think you may have misunderstood, I'm agreeing with you :)

> Sure. But what would have been better for the Fleet Street workers. The UK banning computerised printing? Or the union owning one?

Oh, definitely the latter.

The only way I see e.g. UBI working long-term is democratic* governments owning the means of production, and in the case of AI futures that means owning the compute, and the power supply for the compute.

Right now, the UK power supply is… privatised.
