Or maybe UTC will become TAI... [1]
Though the argument I find most compelling is that everyone should switch to TAI for internal timekeeping, and then make UTC a new timezone (with a very small offset) -- the way leap seconds get added is almost exactly like the way that political entities are always rearranging DST rules, and can use the same mechanism.[2]
