If the “billionaires” AI us out of our livelihoods will they need to learn how to pour a perfect espresso shot or use a voltage tester when they need to change a light bulb? Who’s gonna run the data centers and unclog toilets? They themselves? The thing is out of the bottle, regulations won’t help. What’s the end game like, some neo-feudalism with benevolent UBI serfdom and everyone on welfare?

I feel like some of them are thinking of a world with far fewer people in it, and all the tasks you described are handled robots designed to do their bidding.

How we get from now to a time with far fewer people, well, use your imagination.
