“Shaw Walters on AI and a Universal Basic Income” . This in-depth interview captures Shaw Walters, founder of ElizaOS, as a bold contrarian voice in the AI space, pushing back against the growing consensus that Universal Basic Income (UBI) is inevitable in an AI-driven future. Walters argues that UBI risks entrenching systemic inequality, politicization, and a deepening “crisis of meaning,” asserting instead that individual ownership—especially via crypto—offers a more empowering path forward. The sentiment is positive, with a critical eye toward top-down systems and an emphasis on decentralized, bottom-up solutions as a way to preserve human purpose, economic dignity, and resilience in the age of automation.
