The Universal Basic Income Experiment applies Active Inference to study Universal Basic Income (UBI) — using token economics, policy simulation, and behavioral modeling to examine UBI's effects on human flourishing and economic dynamics.

Overview

The project develops simulation and modeling approaches for UBI using Active Inference principles — modeling economic agents, their belief updating, and policy responses to study how UBI interventions propagate through socioeconomic systems.

Participate

Economists, social scientists, policy researchers, and modelers interested in Active Inference approaches to economic policy are welcome.
