Bill Gates Proposes a Tax on Artificial Intelligence

Bill Gates is arguing for a tax on artificial intelligence, making the case in an opinion video for The New York Times. The proposal revives his long-standing suggestion that automation driven by A.I. should contribute revenue, potentially funding support for displaced workers. Commenters are debating whether taxing A.I. would slow innovation or fairly spread the technology's gains.
Why now: Renewed debate over how governments should respond to A.I.'s economic disruption has put Gates's tax idea back in the spotlight.
