Overview

Will AI bring abundance for all-or prosperity for the few and poverty for the many? In Dystopian or Utopian: Will AI Eliminate or Amplify Poverty?, you'll discover why the answer to humanity's most pressing question depends not on technology, but on the choices we make in the next decade. AI and humanoid robots promise to revolutionize everything-from producing food and building homes to delivering healthcare and education. The technical capability to eliminate poverty may arrive within years. Yet billions remain poor in a world already producing enough for everyone. Why? This groundbreaking book reveals the uncomfortable truth: poverty today is a distribution problem, not a scarcity problem. And AI could make it dramatically worse unless we act now. You'll explore: The optimist's vision: How AI could deliver abundance, eliminate dangerous work, and provide healthcare and education to billions The hard reality: Why technology alone won't solve poverty-and might actually amplify inequality The automation dilemma: Will robots create jobs or eliminate them? The answer may determine everything The infrastructure gap: Why the world's poorest regions could miss the AI revolution entirely Power and policy: Who will own AI's benefits, and what policies could ensure they're shared broadly? Three scenarios for 2050: Utopia, dystopia, or ongoing chaos-which path will we take? Written for anyone concerned about technology's impact on society, this book cuts through hype and pessimism alike to examine what's actually possible, what the real obstacles are, and what we must do now to ensure AI serves humanity broadly rather than enriching a narrow elite. The future isn't predetermined. The next decade will decide whether AI eliminates poverty or creates the most divided society in human history. The choice is ours. But the window is closing fast.
