IT: Israeli strikes kill aid workers, and... Can universal basic income tackle the impact of AI?

Welcome to Wednesday, April 3rd, nations...

Israeli strikes killed aid workers, while Gaza's death toll passes 30,000. 

Seven aid workers with World Central Kitchen were killed in the Gaza Strip when an Israeli strike hit their convoy. The aid workers were unloading more than 100 tons of food brought to Gaza, where U.S. officials say a famine is occurring.

The death toll in Gaza has surpassed 30,000 since the war broke out in October. The U.N. estimates that 12,000 children have been killed.

How do you feel about the U.S.'s response to the war?

Can Universal Basic Income Tackle AI Impact?

For years, universal basic income (UBI) has been a point of contention in the U.S., garnering fluctuating political and social backing. UBI is seen by its supporters as a solution to modern day realities and challenges posed by the rising use of AI, such as wage inequality and job insecurity. 

Estimates from Goldman Sachs suggest that generative AI has the potential to automate tasks equivalent to 300 million full-time jobs worldwide.

What do you think? Do you support universal basic income as a solution to address the impact of AI on jobs?
