While UBI is often proposed as a panacea for the automation-induced economic crisis, it comes with its own challenges. Key concerns include potential financial dependency on government assistance, market distortions, and the nuances of implementation that need to accommodate varying costs of living.

If implemented, UBI could serve as one piece of a larger strategy to provide economic support in tandem with a redefined landscape of property ownership and asset distribution.
