evidence: The challenge to make AI and technology a powerful positive change versus a further subjugation of people depends upon the politics of government control versus monopoly control. Companies seek maximum short-term profit, whereas less profit, more investment and caring about positive uses requires more government and a focus on common good and not just private profit. If we can change the governance of technology to focus on common good growth and not a division of winner/loser, then we can see people having more control over their lives. Imagine that the tough, hard work, dangerous jobs are done by machines guided by computers and AI. We can see the prototype of these in how the U.S. is now fighting wars. The shooting is done by a drone guided by a smart guy/gal working a 9-to-5 job in an air-conditioned office in a nice town. Garbage could be picked up, sorted, recycled, all by robots with AI. Tedious surgery completed by robots and teaching via YouTube would leave the humans to the interesting and exciting cases, not the redoing of same lessons to yet more patients/students. Humans could live well on a 20-hour work week with many weeks of paid vacation.
