Federal Automatic Income Replacement
for the Age of Artificial Intelligence
AI will displace millions of workers. Tax revenues will collapse. The math is straightforward — and so is the solution. A dynamic, formula-based tax that adjusts automatically as displacement grows.
What tax rate on AI company revenue is needed to fund displaced workers and replace lost tax revenue?
The numbers shift dramatically with AI revenue growth, UBI levels, and value capture assumptions.
Explore your own scenario with the interactive model.
Open the ModelAt 10–15% displacement, required tax rates are in the range of existing corporate tax burdens. This is the window to act.
The collapse of the income tax base — funding Social Security, Medicare, defense — is often a larger fiscal hole than UBI payments.
At high displacement, the tax base must expand beyond AI companies to all businesses benefiting from AI productivity gains.
“I pledge to support the development and passage of the FAIR AI Act — a Federal Automatic Income Replacement framework that dynamically adjusts to protect American workers, preserve federal solvency, and ensure that the economic benefits of artificial intelligence are shared broadly across society. I commit to working across party lines to enact this legislation before displacement demands it, not after.”
We call on every candidate for federal office — in 2026 and beyond, in every party and every district — to take this pledge.
This is not about being for or against AI.
It is about being prepared.
