[00F_]

no, the highest level purpose of an economy is to ensure the survival and growth of the meta-organism that hosts it. it figures out the most efficient way to produce all the goods and services that power the meta-organism and allow it to survive.

the only reasons humans persist is because we are the best. if another country wages war with us, humans will be the winner no matter the outcome. but with AGI, humans wont always be the winner. even if we managed to create some kind of arrangement where the goods and services created by an automated economy were distributed to a group of humans, that would end very quickly because some other class of meta-organism, made into the meanest and fittest meta-organism by natural selection among the machines, a gnarled and grotesque living nightmare, would destroy that last enclave of humans perhaps without even realizing it or trying to. axiomatically, long term, your idea doesnt work.
