How about cheap healthcare? Or affordable housing, water, electricity and food? Is AI improving human quality of life?

Objectivly. Yes. Not only am seeing it being used to increase farming yields it's also improving healthcare. Both water and electricity are the lowest they have ever been as a percentage of income and only getting lower. People keep looking at flat dollar figures like inflation isn't a thing and it's still 1995 or something. In reality we're accelerating to an abundance economy.

The pessimistic attitude here is exhausting. In reality it's by far the best time ever to be a human on this planet.
