Conspiracy bullshit. You cannot keep something like an effective cure for cancer under wraps. There is no plausible logic how that would not leak sooner or later.
The information needed to build a basic nuclear explosive device is rather easily available. Now go build one.
I am talking about an *effective* cure developed by AI. If curing cancer with it is as complex as building a nuclear weapon, then the cure might as well not exist.

They exist, I assure you!

Knowing is the easy part. An effective cure for cancer will probably be a procedure where you get your tumors sequenced, an AI model considers the unique genetic context and creates a specific treatment. Think CAR-T cell therapy or mRNA vaccines. Then this needs to be manufactured.
All of this means you will need to be rich or have your country invest lots of money into health care systems. In a world where humans don't provide economic value anymore, why would that be?
The cost of such therapy will inevitably go down over time.
Well rich folks using such services will eventually push the price down, however complex and ridiculous the actual process will be. Its not like they are immune of all these ailments, not yet at least.
