The questions really come down to two things: How will AI contribute to humans who contribute to their planet?

and

When will the AI cut out the middlemen?

PS This is my optimistic side. Pessimist side only sees our usual trend: Profits and Prophets want dumber people and smarter machines until they achieve the obvious goal: maximum conversion of all potential resources into landfills. AI is just another level of empowerment to accelerate the process.
