Jan Kulveit rejects permanent underclass AGI futurism

0

Jan Kulveit of ACS Research and CTS argued that the permanent underclass meme linked to AGI constitutes bad futurism. He observed that such views assume AGI will transform one domain while most of society and technology stay near 2025 conditions. Additional discussion posts noted rising inequality in developed countries over the past 20 years from technology returns and contended that dramatic change claims favor narratives over historical base rates.

Original post

The "permanent underclass" meme is primarily bad futurism, where people admit AGI massively changes one domain, but somehow everything else stays roughly 2025. Not impossible, but small slice of futures
