Artificial intelligence and automation are revolutionizing production, making our human labor-based model obsolete. This manifesto proposes rethinking our relationship with work and consumption by taxing robots and AI to fund a universal income, thus redistributing technological wealth for a future where prosperity and freedom go hand in hand.
A visual artist and digital specialist, Christophe Desgouttes has been exploring the intersection of creation and technology since the 1990s. A graduate in fine arts and animation, he exhibited in various galleries before developing web and data projects at Repères, then with his company DAGOPROD. Engaged in reflecting on the impact of AI, he recently published a manifesto on the robot tax and universal income.
