普遍基本收入:回应人工智能挑战的政策选择

当前,人工智能技术给人类社会带来了广泛而深刻的挑战,传统有偿工作急剧萎缩,工作的意义、社会稳定问题受到严重冲击,相应的社会保障制度与政策则并未与时俱进,使人类陷入了巨大的风险。作为定期的、普遍的、无条件的和针对个人的现金转移政策,普遍基本收入通过财富共享为所有公民提供基本生活保障,奠定了社会和解和稳定的物质基础,挑战了近代工业社会对工作意义的有限理解,为未来社会注入了更多的自由、平等和公正,因此可以成为回应人工智能挑战的政策选择。

Universal Basic Income:Policy Choice in Response to Challenges from Artificial Intelligence

The challenge of artificial intelligence technology to the human society is extensive and profound.The traditional paid work is shrinking dramatically,and the significance of work and social stability are seriously impacted.The corresponding social security policies have not kept pace with the times,posing significant risks for mankind.Universal Basic Income,as a regular,common,unconditional and personal cash transfer policy,provides basic living guarantee for all citizens through wealth sharing,lays a material foundation for social reconciliation and stability,challenges the limited understanding of the meaning of work in modern industrial society,and injects more freedom,equality and justice into the future society.Therefore,it can become a policy option in response to the challenges from artificial intelligence.
