What a flippant, unhelpful response.

Rather than encouraging people to accept the misery inflicted on them by a handful of billionaires, why don't you acknowledge the injustice that AI magnifies the gap between capital and labor, and encourage people to fight (through democratic means) for a more just society, i.e. one that distributes the benefits of labor-saving devices among everyone, not just to a tiny fraction at the top.

If AI is cheaper than intellectual workers the distribution will take care of itself. No regulation needed.

People didn't wait for AI to understand this, you just had the luxury to ignore how capitalism has been destroying society for decades... now that it is your turn it's DEFCON 1, but ten years ago it wasn't your problem.

Technology and "progress" haven't been improving the workers life in a long long time, again: welcome to the club.
