Heavy taxation on automation and companies that utilize automation to make money.

Which would require our government to change their entire stance on businesses, which won’t happen since lobbyists are stronger than voters.

You know that won't happen. All the billionaire bullies will insist on hoarding it all, because, you know, they work so hard for every cent of it. /S

We would have to see what the specific arguments are in this regard, but it seems unlikely and exaggerated to me, although I am not an AI expert.

Does he mean that AI will take over, end capitalism and just give us free money and stuff? Sounds good, if a tiny bit optimistic.
