I HAVEN'T READ THE PAPER (def need to do that to make my own conclusions), but i've also seen not that terrifyingly bad results:

i like pretending i am smart. /lovejoy by day; yoink anytime. we /honk: goosegang.netlify.app

it seems like ubi is a case of stated vs revealed preference

stated: it'll level you up
revealed: you'll live like it's the 60s minus the required effort to justify the reward

urrm i think it's always a case when sb tries to reinvent socialism

on one hand, what if that matches the ppl aspirations? those who want to get higher, will find a way; the rest will have a way to exist

but personally i'm more in favor of sth like a one-time payment (thailand will be doing this experiment, i wonder how it goes) — an incentive that might seem ridiculous, but could save the situation for many people without becoming a slave of it — if you make it out, you have higher chance of not repeating the past mistakes

makes sense? idk
