I can't decide which idea is the more insane:
A. World (formerly Worldcoin) will scan your retina to prove you're human, then hope to use AI to make everything more efficient and productive to the point that the AI agents/bots/robots will agree to work for and reward us humans with UBI (universal basic income) for doing nothing except being biological.
B. Modern Monetary Theory (MMT) and how it suggests that governments can simply print or coin money infinitely, and yet the money still retains value despite the infinite printing. Then, it can therefore be used to provide UBI for people.
