There's an incentive for authoritarian goverments to use AI even if citizens cant afford to use them, I mean i do feel customers will always to be able to afford AI to some capacity, prob will cost more than now if AI "collapses"
what comes first, groceries or ai?
If AI becomes the necessity to work, and therefore buy groceries, then AI, tho this is dubious at the moment (it would need AI to become essential for work first for this statement to be true)
