It seems there must be a human factor, and something that looks a lot like a government, but I can't quite wrap my head around how to make sure each of those 7e9 redunancies can only create 7e9 basic income generating accounts, and do a moderately good job of identifying and stopping those that try to collect, via force, coercion, or deceit, more than their share of basic income.
The AIs could just collaborate. They would estimate what the basic income guarantees should be, and negotiate shares. There would be no reason to involve humans, excepting any human-AI hybrids involved.
I think "those that try to collect via force..." refers to some of the 7e9 humans, not the AIs - why would the AIs need money anyway? They have perhaps energy need for their existence and ... that's it; except for some programmed "imperative" - other than survival energy need - any other imperative is overlaid or in addition to mere survival.
In this scenario, corporations and military have evolved into AIs and human-AI hybrids. They don't need money. They would just be giving the redundancies a gentle slide into oblivion, as a sentimental gesture. <SNIP>
Here's hoping, fellow humans!
Not so much, I fear :(
