I think you miss the point where gradual disempowerment from AI happens as AI is more economically and otherwise performant option that systems can and will select instead of humans. Less reliance on human involvement leads to less bargaining power for humans.
But I mean we already have examples like molochian corporate structures that kind of lost the need to value individual humans as they can afford high churn rate and there are always other people to get a decently paid corporate job even if the conditions are … suboptimal.
Thank you. What a coincidence, huh?
