AI certainly has the potential to disrupt work, but with a UBI, I see a transformation from working mostly for others to more cottage/home-based industry as people could use hobbies, etc that may not quite meet their needs but with the supplement of UBI it would be enough to live on.

My opinion is that focusing on universal programs will help keep people like this out of power. Trump feeds on the resentment felt by those struggling but can't get help while watching "those people get assistance.
As for AI...

Disregarding the role that poverty and homelessness have in creating drug addiction and mental illness will just result result in more issues that result in people falling through the cracks

Can't argue with paranoia.

Drug and alcohol addiction is something that we need to address in an appropriate way regardless of anything else we do or not do.

try paying for all that stuff with $0 a month
or getting $500 in food stamps then have it taken away because you got a $20/month raise
UBI is not meant to replace all other income especially at $500
obviously you have never been poor to think that $500 extra is not impactful

that "tiny bit of food" would make a huge difference for many people
also I could feed my family of 5 for a month on $500

the movie The Wave (1981) is based on a real event where a teacher takes this even further

I like the term Human Centered Capitalism
