In what way is this interesting?
Is it making the average worker poorer?
Or somehow more miserable (barring base jealousy)?

Almost certainly, yes.
The economy is not a fixed pie, but unless it's the CEO driving the productivity gains of a company, there's no real reason to give them a more and more outsized share of the revenue. It could go to the workers, or the shareholders.
All production is limited by rate of available energy and/or available extraction of material.
It is actually more accurate to say the economy is a fixed pie than it is to ludicrously say the economy is a source of infinite wealth.
