    No, but it could continue what feudalism did and Capitalism maintained.

    Actually effective AI paired with robotics would eliminate the need for a large underclass.

    And you might note the glorification of mass slaughter the past few years.

    I think it’s a symptom, or a tool of the “upper classes”.

      Yeah, it could just as easily be used to distribute small pieces of the remaining work amongst the masses and give everyone very small jobs that pay a lot. It’s not the tool, it’s how you use it.
