That's what AI companies want, you don't have a job and they pay you with UBI in Compute Coins, so you can spend by using their digital wallet (Altman has Worldcoin).

This is just an Utopia world for the rich and a Dystopia world for most of us.

I think, what Altman means by Compute is the same as something like Credit Points or Coins. Which you can use to pay bills, rent, buy groceries, etc.

This is just an excuse from a billionaire to not give you UBI in cash and prefer to use Coins from their digital system and buy their products.
