My concern is that the people that already own everything today will capture all of the new value created by AI + automation and the rift of inequality will only deepen.
Guillotines aren't as effective when they have AI-controlled assault drones.
Any war against the rich will be a guerilla war. The National Guard has shinier toys than you.
Wanna bet?
I will bet literally everything I own that you don't have a drone with air-to-ground missiles.
You're right I got an arsenal thats 2000-10000 years ahead of everything.
I can't imagine AI controlled assault drones would help rich people at all. If that was a fear, wouldn't the same fear be around since the invention of tanks or any military advancement?
Some private citizen starts using attack drones, I don't think it will work out well in most countries. Even if the government didn't intervene, which it would immediately
Rich people sell them. Armies benefit from AI-controlled drones, because they can be extremely precise, hit moving targets and don't care about connection interference if brains are on board.
I guess profiting from them, yeah. Guess I was speaking in the OP context as a response to a guillotine
