Introduction

Artificial intelligence (AI) continuously evolves by utilizing data collected from humans. However, this data is often provided for free, raising some ethical questions. Should the value of our data be recognized, and can this recognition be part of a universal income model? In this blog post, we will discuss the idea of rewarding users with a digital currency for the data AI collects from them.

Data Wallet Concept

The Data Wallet is a system where users earn coins for every piece of data they provide to AI. This data can include photos, drawings, conversations, and other contributions. Coins are added to users’ data wallets, which can later be converted into economic value. This system operates automatically, eliminating the need for users to manually track their data.

Coin System

The coin used in this model would be similar to Bitcoin, limited in quantity, and divisible into small units. Users would earn small coin units for each piece of data they provide. For example, even if a single pixel of a photo is used, AI would detect this usage and credit the user’s data wallet with a small coin. These coins can accumulate and eventually convert into economic value.

Fair and Transparent Distribution

The fair and transparent distribution of data and coins is a cornerstone of this system. AI must be reliable and transparent in this process. To gain users’ trust, the data usage and coin distribution processes must be thoroughly explained and managed transparently.

Conclusion and Future Perspective

This model could be implemented as a universal income model in the future. The value of users’ data should be recognized, and they should earn income in return. The Data Wallet and coin system can be powerful tools to achieve this goal.

In this blog post, we explored how the data exchange between AI and users could be turned into an economic model. These ideas could play a significant role in transitioning to a universal income model in the future.
