If AI-induced change leads to enough concentration of economic and military power that most people become economically and militarily irrelevant, I don’t expect democracy to last long. One way or another, the distribution of political power will shift toward the actual distribution of economic and military power.
This is what I believe as well. The post-AI economy will look absolutely nothing like what we have now. It’s not something you can achieve via policy changes. There are way too many vested interested and institutions we dont know how to ever get rid of peacefully.
