New policy research from CSAIP involving 56,000 Americans reveals significant support for data dividends and policies that redistribute resources from corporations to workers/families. In contrast, Universal Basic Income (UBI) lacks popularity. The public also favors policies that hold AI companies accountable. The research highlights a preference for straightforwardly redistributive measures over broad cash handouts in the AI transition era.
