The easiest play is for the people to own the infrastructure AI runs on, then pay for social benefits out of infrastructure rental agreements. The cloud is massively profitable, and the federal government has a real competitive advantage compared to private parties in terms of large buildouts.
Even easier if they just own the AI companies in the first place. Make them go public, and, if you're feeling especially redistributive, spend $X of public funds to purchase stock spread equally amongst americans/humans/sentient creatures.
