With AI now effectively here we will once again be told we are worth nothing, because AI can do our jobs. This time, however we are getting into a situation where unemployment rate or over 30% is quite possible. The next few years might be the last time it will be possible for us to rebel before 'AI took your job so you cannot afford anything' becomes the norm. If we as a species cannot survive on surplus value generated by our work and AI on top of that, and refuse to feed and house everyone, we might as well all die out.
