Reply to comment by HeinrichTheWolf_17 in Generative AI is changing everything. But what’s left when the hype is gone? by nick7566

We’ve been saying that the world would have less scarcity for decades now but the middle class are poorer than they were back in the 60s. Affording a house is impossible now. Food price is through the roof yet we’ve never produced so much resources in human history. Farming equipments are more efficient than ever

Capital/Net Worth inequality is different than the amount of actual produce available though. We have more than enough food to feed everyone and enough homes to house everyone, it’s just not distributed fairly.

That’s because of all of the anti-middle class economic changes that the republicans implemented during the last 50 years.
