You’re relying on the hope that the people with money and power would be willing to share that with everyone else. They wouldn’t. Our entire economic system is based on the principle that people are inherently selfish.
Which is what I'm saying. Technological progress will happen whether we like it or not. If we want to continue to be able to afford food, rather than ranting against AI and calling for its ban we need to instead work to fix the economic system so AI can be used for good. Relying on the charity of corporations for basic survival was always a bad idea.
The economic system isn’t the problem. Human nature is the problem. And it’s immutable.
