So far every instance of moon-eyed 'transform the world' rhetoric coming out of these projects boil down to "we're going to make capitalists a lot of money by cutting labor out of the equation as much as possible."

To be fair, this is a capitalism problem rather than an inherent flaw with the technology itself, but without changes to our core priorities as a society, this seems to only exacerbate the challenges we're already facing.
