Without equitable control of our planet's resources, AI can never be used as a net good, but to one degree or another, it's the same with all technology.

The answer is obvious.
Remove the wealthy who steal and hoard our planet's resources. If billionaires really were "smarter, better, harder working", they would not need more than everyone else.
No, the rich cling to wealth because they know they contribute nothing to society.
Resource justice is the only future for humanity.

That's an interesting way to think about it.
I see it less as the wealthy needing all the resources because they contribute nothing, but more as the wealthy "needing" all those resources because they have a bottomless pit of greed that they just can't feed. No matter how much they have they could always have more, so they want more regardless of how much they contribute to society.
I don't think about cost as much with AI uses, but I do believe AI is better when it is free and open. -

no, it's not just "the same with all rechnology."some technology is inherently beneficial and useful, like bicycles.
some technology is inherently destructive and deadly, like nuclear bombs.
when amnesty international call for a global ban on a specific technology because it endangers human rights and environment, then it's time to stop using that shit rather than going »it's complicated« or »there's no ethical consumption under capitalism« or whatever else stalling tactic to excuse the continued consuming and spreading #AIslop.
