I see that and to a certain extend I agree, though I am much more on the "anti AI" side of the argument myself. I do think it is not as neutral as you make it sound, though. Like it is an especially pernicious tool under capitalism or feudalism, in that it allows a really aggressive extraction of value from the commons into the private sector. And even if it doesn't necessarily replace that many jobs, the perception among management is that they can at least use AI as an excuse to make fewer people do the work of many. If enough employers hold that line then the balance of power will shift to management, no matter how talented the workers.
