While the trend is concerning, it's also a pivotal moment to rethink our economic and social models. A 10% shift to AI today could easily become 50% tomorrow.
In my opinion, the real question isn't AI vs humanity, but whether we can design systems where both thrive. As Erik Brynjolfsson has argued, the issue isn’t automation itself, but whether the benefits are broadly shared. That means reimagining how we distribute the wealth created by AI—before the gap becomes unbridgeable.
