I've answered this before. The container revolution split some of the resulting profits with those whose livelihoods were destroyed, the longshoremen.

"You build a dam that destroys 10000 homes, who should reap the profits?"

It's a good answer, but it raises further questions:

• Should we be destroying people's homes to build dams without their consent?

• In general, are people being compensated when these things happen to them? i.e., while it might be nice, does this actually happen?

The Luddites (the real ones, not the mythological bastardisation of them) continue to be sympathetic characters.

The famous: "it depends" :-)

AI most likely falls under: "they should be", IMHO.
