Yeah not a realistic scenario. AI is immensely useful and if applied correctly will help humanity.

The question is how do you reign in the robber barons, who just want to use AI to maintain their status quo and extract more and more profit from the system.

Right up until you need to do something you can't plagiarize

> if applied correctly will help humanity.

It isn't and won't be. Its entire purpose is to plagiarize artists, writers, and programmers, and to slowly whittle away those professions as viable. When there are no engineers left, we'll go back to sticks and stones I guess.
