If AI makes human labor dramatically less necessary, who buys everything?

A discussion on reddit.com explores the economic implications if AI dramatically reduces the necessity of human labor. The primary focus is not on the fate of workers, but rather on the impact on demand. The conversation raises questions about potential solutions such as Universal Basic Income (UBI), broader ownership of productive assets, or significantly cheaper goods, assuming AI becomes as economically transformative as many anticipate.

Unlike most discussions focusing on workers, this thread uniquely shifts the economic impact debate to demand, exploring solutions like UBI or broader asset ownership.
