Tax every Ai job at the rate it replaces. Use this money to supply everyone with a basic living from birth to death.
This could free up all those minds to come up with even better ideas to improve society. This might even improve the rate of progress even faster.
My idea needs lots of thought from smarter folks than me, but it does give a more positive look at the future. From the fear of unemployment to a road to progress for all.
