I have a loathing for claims put forward in the "Common Misconception: XXXX" format.

For example: "Common Misconception: ...AI will necessarily increase inequality."

The question of whether AI will increase inequality involve long arguments that hinge on both unknowns about society and unknowns about AI.

Sure, it's not absolutely certain that AI will increase inequality but that's an empty assertion and the whole thing seems like an expert brushing off serious concerns about technological development impacting society.
