It's interesting that people don't seem to think the likely outcome might be... capital and labour. Not capital alone.

You see this in construction - the capital is used for certain things and is operated by labour.

Exactly. We invented rule-based machines so that we could have a thing that follows rules, and adheres strictly to them, all day long.

Im not sure why people keep comparing machine-behaviour to human's. Its like Economic models that assume perfect rationality... yeah that's not reality mate.

"You have to fear death to reason about the world and how to behave in it."

You're onto something there.

If everyone knew they were to die tomorrow, all of a sudden they'd choose to act differently. There is no logical thought process that determines that - it's something else. Something we can't concretely point toward as an object.
