This exchange limitation is important because unemployment is known to be correlated with alcohol and opioid use. The BLC would provide for everyone the physiological and safety levels of the Maslow hierarchy, whether one has a job or not. Also, education and retraining are provided completely free, along with personalized assistance, because for people who want to continue to work, retraining is critical to avoid AI job displacement, as discussed in “The Job Savior.” The second component of the Jukurrpa plan, Moola, is a new “currency” intended to help some people move to the next level on the Maslow hierarchy—love and belonging, as exemplified in caring, friendship, warmth, camaraderie, trust, and connection.

The dream4future movement inspires a third component of Jukurrpa, and the journey on which Keira chooses to embark. This last component, although it is complex and not fully defined as the story ends, clearly corresponds to the top of the Maslow hierarchy: self-actualization. The dream4future enhancement to Project Jukurrpa would need to involve upgrading the AI algorithm from listening for empathy to also evaluating all higher layers of the Maslow hierarchy, with positive reinforcement beyond simple accumulation or addiction. Just as in “Isle of Happiness,” in which AI learns to measure people’s happiness, scientists would learn to build AI to recognize people’s sense of respect, accomplishment, and self-actualization.

When they first arrived on the island, the guests indulged in various pleasurable activities that produced short-term bursts of happy feelings, but over time, they were back on the hedonic treadmill, always treading, but never achieving lasting happiness. In contrast with hedonic happiness (material wealth, pleasure, enjoyment, comfort), people who advance above the bottom two levels of the Maslow hierarchy pursue eudaimonic happiness (growth, meaning, authenticity, excellence). Maslow’s hierarchy states that only after the levels of hedonic happiness are satisfied can people move up to eudaimonic happiness. In other words, once our material needs are satisfied, we will seek to belong, to love and be loved, to be respected, and to be self-actualized.

A recent Bloomberg investigation of American workers found that people valued security and stability of their income more than large salaries or even doing fulfilling work. If we look at Maslow's hierarchy of needs, most workers are not asking to find their true calling at their jobs, as Weber suggested, but are simply asking to get paid a living wage and have certainty they'll have a job next week. Workers are asking for their most basic needs to be met; they're not asking for Porsches or even personal enlightenment (Figure 4.6).

We're guessing it's because you'd like to have more money in your life. We can definitely show you how to achieve this, but why do you want more money in your life?

His theory stressed that we can't skip a level of the pyramid: If we don't have our basic needs met, we can't get our higher needs met. The same goes for building monetary wealth through the four stages. You simply can't reach financial abundance without going through and achieving the previous stages. You have to stack up the building blocks in order to reach the top of the pyramid. Figure 11.2 Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs Source: Wikipedia, 2007. So now we are ready to share with you exactly what we mean when we talk of infinite wealth. It's not an actual figure on a balance sheet or a static measure of net worth: It's a state of mind…it's the acceptance of financial abundance, which is the knowledge that there is no limit to how much wealth you can acquire, because you know you can keep on finding it and creating it.

Unless advertisers could learn to distinguish the composer of "White Rabbit" from the president's daughter, O'Toole wrote, marketing research was useless. O'Toole argued that statistics on income, age, and education had lost relevance because there had been a "Revolution of the Individual" in the United States. The advertising executive didn't acknowledge having read about Abraham Maslow's hierarchy of needs or Ronald Inglehart's silent revolution. But he was describing the same phenomenon—the explosion of self-expression in a post-materialist economy. People were no longer willing to be treated as part of a mass because they didn't think of themselves that way, O'Toole told his fellow marketing executives.

In 1943, American psychologist Abraham Maslow (1908–1970) proposed a theory that all humans possess a hierarchy of needs from basic need to self-actualization: some needs were more important than others, and needs on one level must be satisfied before the next can be addressed.62 As an example, survival is a basic need and, as a result, is the first thing that motivates our behaviour. If you are starving, it is difficult to think about other needs. Maslow's Hierarchy of Human Needs One of the early criticisms of Maslow’s pyramid was that there was not enough scientific rigour to back it up. In 2011, Louis Tay and Ed Diener released a study to test his theory. According to Tay and Diener, “The findings suggest that Maslow’s theory is largely correct. In cultures all over the world the fulfillment of his proposed needs correlates with happiness.”63 It is worth considering where others are on Maslow’s framework as compared to where you are.
