实话说，马斯克和扎克伯格的预言让我有些吃惊。
亚马逊的机器人“发货员”，24小时不停歇：
“The jobpocalypse is coming,” Jason Calacanis, a prominent Silicon Valley investor, wrote in his recent book, “Angel.” “We’ve got a 70% chance of figuring out this massive sea change without starting a full-on revolution in the streets.”
马斯克:
“There will be fewer and fewer jobs that a robot cannot do better [than a human]. What to do about mass unemployment? This is going to be a massive social challenge. And, I think, ultimately, we will have to have some kind of universal basic income. I don’t think we’re going to have a choice…I do want to be clear. These are not things that I wish will happen. These are simply things that I think probably will happen.”
— Elon Musk

同一战队的扎克伯格：
”We should explore ideas like universal basic income to make sure that everyone has a cushion to try new ideas," Zuckerberg said at his Harvard commencement address Thursday.
比尔·盖茨：
Bill Gates proposed that governments start taxing robot workers the same way we tax human workers.
What do you think? Universal basic income靠谱吗？
