The entire debate is, how exactly can it change. Because I see zero signs pointing towards the rosy future you mentioned, rather contrary. I only see the current AI overlords hoarding power, hoarding money, and the plebs fighting more and more for scraps - against each other or/and later in uprisings against those technofeudalists and their few selected minions. And when the AI gets advanced enough, I see less future even for the minions, and also less chances of the uprising winning against a robot army. Will the humans survive? Maybe, but after a violent culling. And not even that I see guaranteed, depending on the future alignment of the AGI (or whatever it will be called). But all this bleakness is based on today's inaction of the politics/people towards the bad actors, so I really hope we can still steer it away.
