With an AI workforce you can eliminate the need for a human workforce and share the wealth or you can eliminate the human workforce and not share.

AI services are widely available, and humans have agency. If my boss can outsource everything to AI and run a one-person company, soon everyone will be running their own one-person companies to compete. If OpenAI refuses to sell me AI, I’ll turn to Anthropic, DeepSeek, etc.

AI is raising individual capability to a level that once required a full team. I believe it’s fundamentally a democratizing force rather than monopolizing. Everybody will try and get the most value out of AI, nobody holds the power to decide whether to share or not.

The danger point is when there is abundance for a limited number of people, but not yet enough for everyone.
