Will AI Grow the Pie or Just Hand It to Fewer People?

It doesn't matter how big you grow the pie if a few people take everything for them and leave just leftovers for everybody else.

AI already grew the pie, but the system is rigged, and the same people are taking the new pieces of pie.

Wealth isn’t zero sum.

Yes, it is. The rich get richer, and the poor get poorer, until there is nothing left to the poor.

Is there more wealth today than 10 years ago, 100 years ago, 1000 years ago?

Where is that coming from?
