Is there actually any AI that is not capitalistically operated and if so, how can you make sure that it stays that way and that it is not sold to the most bidding capitalist after it has eaten and digested our data?
Apart from the fact that the environment and climate will become even more in deficit due to the resources required, I fear that in a very short time the gap between rich and poor will drift exponentially apart and total control over everyone and everything will fall into the already dirty hands of a few narcissists.A lot of things have developed so strangely and in a very short time that I often think I'm just hallucinating them all, like Sam Lowry, who was tortured in the movie "Brazil" shortly before he dies at the hands of his torturers, who were nothing more than the henchmen of a few narcissistic rich people who controlled everything.

This is an image of the album cover of Georg Danzer's long-playing record "Feine Leute" from 1979.
On this cover you can see the back of young Georg as he opens his coat in an exhibitionistic way in front of a frightened "high society" of rich snobs in a correspondingly fine ambience and lets them see the naked truth.. You can find the translated text of the title track "Feine Leute" here:
Fine people
Fine people never sweat
never go to work either
Fine people never lie
Tell only the truth
Fine people never pee in the flower vase
Never fall out of roll or on the fine nose
Oh, they were born under a fine star
Oh, I just like fine peopleFine people drinking tea and eat cake
Sitting on the couch
You never hear them cursing
Fine people are well-groomed,
honest, nice and open
are built up by higher things
and affected by the suffering of others
everything all too human is far from them
Oh, I just like fine peopleFine people are loyal
But only to their own kind
And they're so liberal
They're so nice, the rich ones
Fine people thank God,
because they are so happy
That they are fine people,
well, that's just the way it is
Yes, I love you, ladies gentlemen
Oh, I just like fine people -
“In fact the Guild, he liked to think, practiced the ultimate democracy. You didn’t need intelligence, social position, beauty or charm to hire it. You just needed money which, unlike the other stuff, was available to everyone. Except for the poor, of course, but there was no helping some people.”
Terry Pratchett; Hogfather

Vorschlag zur Güte: Wer erfolgreich eine Milliarde Euro angehäuft hat, braucht künftig kein Geld mehr, bekommt eine Hütte auf einem Südsee-Atoll und jeden Tag Essen vom Büffet nach Wunsch. Lebenslänglich.
Das überflüssig gewordene Geld wird eingesammelt und an die ausgezahlt, deren Arbeitsleistung den Profit erwirtschaftet hat, abzüglich der nie gezahlten Steuern – so ein Büffet kostet ja ein bißchen was.
