How do you determine who gets the house on the beach? Who gets the mountain view? Who gets stuck with the corner lot on a busy noisy road?

Even if in the unlikely case UBI gets implemented, there is no way payment will be equal. Why would the rich give up their positions of power? They’ll just get more security and bribe politicians, enough to build private armies and fortresses so the poor and starving can’t touch them, and have no choice but to live out their lives in squalor…we’re seemingly headed that way according to many even without pervasive autonomous machines taking away all work.
Obviously the AI will conclude that no humans will get those things. The future is dark, folks.
It wouldn't be a redistribution of our current assets like that. I think there would be a whole lot of repurposing of these things.
The beach houses, mansions, mountain views could be vacation places, or used as libraries, or simply dismantled for the materials.
The "slums" on noisy roads could be eliminated entirely and used for something people don't need to be at.
We'd move to a more equal distribution of assets closer to the middle line.
and anyone that disagrees you just kill them, right? That's what all good commies do.
Stop hiding behind rainbows and say what you mean.
Anyone that disagrees with the AI gets killed.
Politics. Maybe we can all become politicians. If so the future looks bright! /s
