Of course it is, that was always the case. Anyone that genuinely believed there was any non-profit, humanitarian, risk-averse future for this technology was drinking copious amounts of Kool aid.

These things have been designed, from day 1, with the explicit purpose of killing labor and making a lot of people richer. This was never, ever, a tool for the common man.

AI is the capitalist equivalent of a Death Star. Now that they have it, what the hell else do you think was going to happen?
