those who have power over the algorithms - governments and companies - will be the winners and basically everyone else will be losers to different degrees.

unless societies change and become much more democratic. and i mean direct democracy, not electing people who then govern everybody else.

plus democratization of economy and workplaces.

i see no other alternative.

I might be downvoted, but a dictorship might not be bad if done right. To give an example in a group dictorship, each one takes care of different sectors of society. Consistency and efficiency could be a lot higher in society.

some things are more important than efficiency. e.g. egality and freedom.

Freedom relative to the majority. The majority dictate the minority.

yes, just not every time in every single thing. Because sometimes the majority does not always know what's best for themselves

Would you rather have a bad but free life or a good but dictated life?
