I am sensing a new standup comedy routine where a tablet pretending to be AI has a script to say some of the worse takes while claiming to be different people at different points. And the host dissects the responses with observational humor

And how do we know which industries would benefit most from capitalism or socialism? All industries experience diminishing returns of capital investment after a certain point, and that is how Marx made the distinction about which mode of production is "best" for which industry. It isn't inherent that one industry should be socialist and another capitalist, it is relative to how big the industry is and whether there is room for continued expansion.

You sound like Marx just before he recommends transitioning to socialism as the next logical stage of human development.
