“#AI is intensifying the problems that #capitalism creates with the expectation that, when those problems become bad enough, the #government will have no choice but to step in.

If humans can just survive, they're not going to fight for change because they are busy funding their survival. This is the time were at now
If there is no way to get the money to survive, you might as well fight
