Every technology revolution since the Gutenberg press has followed the same pathway? There is no evidence AI is any different. They had oligarchs back then, hell they had feudal lords backs then!

There are definitely transient upheavals as civilization adapts to the new norm and we can do much to reduce those effects.

But the end result is the same, more of everything made cheaper for the working class.

We are at the tail end of a 50 year productivity plateau and rising costs. We’re looking down the barrel of the first reduction in the QoL for our kids. I for one want to see what this tech has to offer.
