Why Education Beats Universal Basic Income in the Age of Automation
Universal Basic Income may sound like a safety net for an automated future, but evidence shows it’s economically inefficient and socially limited. Instead, governments should focus on “automation-proof” education—policies that promote vocational training, higher education, and human-centric skills such as creativity and emotional intelligence. Investing in education, the data suggests, delivers far higher returns for both individuals and national economies than funding UBI programs ever could.

This is like the 3rd thread on UBI. I think it's good to see if it's possible, but communism is not good.
UBI, sure... But make sure some people are richer than others. Reward effort...

Makes sense. UBI sounds good on paper, but without skills to adapt, it’s just a short-term fix. Education builds resilience, you can’t automate creativity or human judgment (at least not yet).

Nothing will ever be automation proof

It's just a safety net, not a real fix.
