The US government wants a piece of the AI boom — literally. In a story breaking on SuperWorld News, the Trump administration is weighing direct government equity stakes in top AI companies, including reported talks with OpenAI. What started as a fringe idea now spans the political spectrum: → The administration is discussing a possible government stake in OpenAI directly → Officials are floating a "profit share" plan, with meetings with AI companies expected within the week → The concept of giving Americans AI equity — "Universal Basic Capital" — has backers from Trump to Bernie Sanders The core issue: as AI becomes the most valuable engine in the economy, who owns the upside? Proponents see public equity stakes as a way to share AI's windfall with citizens. Critics warn that a government on the cap table could distort competition, pick winners, and entangle national policy with corporate balance sheets. This is exactly the kind of story SuperWorld News was built for — surfacing the most consequential developments across business, technology, science, and more, right on an interactive global map. And with game theory built in, users don't just read the news — they predict what happens next. What do you think — should Americans get equity in the AI companies shaping their future, or does government ownership cross a line?

If there’s one area I’d like to have seen the Chancellor go further, it’s on Capital Gains Tax. We could use those resources to help build #UniversalBasicCapital and help fix the yawning inequalities of wealth that scar our country. But I accept, it was time for first things first. And the the first priority was simple: fix the foundations.

A true end-of-work infrastructure (AGI and whatever may follow) will render almost worthless the commonly invoked moral justifications for wealth inequality: effort, merit, labor, incentives for productivity and innovation, and natural or acquired differences in talents and skills. #UniversalBasicIncome #UniversalBasicCapital #wealthinequality

The emergence of the end-of-work infrastructure (AI, AGI, etc) will lead people of good will to advocate for a far more egalitarian society, radically altering the debate on wealth inequality and its underlying concepts. Rightly so, as a more egalitarian society will become both possible and a necessity of justice. #UniversalBasicIncome #UniversalBasicCapital #SocialJustice
