The 0.1% scenario kicks in long before you get independent, sentient AI agents. That is, giving humans the reins doesn’t solve the problem.
During the Great Depression the unemployment rate was 25% in the U.S. What happens when it’s not 25% but 99% that are not just unemployed but unemployable?
It will start with birth licenses (the obseletariat population will be managed down) and then maybe simply food will be cut off. And don’t think you’re going to go off the grid and grow your own. There will be no off the grid. It will all be owned.
