There are three options:

1. AI owned by everyone

2. No AI

3. AI owned by billionaires

If you can make the poors fight for 2 instead of 1, then you guarantee that you don't get 1. If instead, the poors fight for 1, they've got a chance of getting it. You present AI as a false dichotomy: no AI or AI for billionaires.

Any of us arguing for (1) get shouted down by the very people who would benefit most from it. The poors do the job of the billionaires.
