Those issues are something that societies and democratically elected representatives should work out; not some billionaires. The problem seems to be that some people with a good thing going don't want something that benefits them personally. They prefer no change over something that benefits everyone (but them relatively less).
Indeed, but, and I'm going to throw a wild hypothetical out there: What if the billionaires use their billions to pay that society's elected officials not to fix these issues, and then, when those officials are voted out, they pay the new ones?
Is it the billionaire's job to undermine the society they're in? You asked how they're undermining us and I provided some of the many valid answers. If its society's job to fend off constant attacks from billionaires, I think it is stupid to keep doing that rather than take the thing they're using to repeatedly violate, their too much money.
I agree. Now note how far away from AI this is.
If you ask clarifying questions for additional context, it seems strange that you would be surprised to hear clarification and additional context.
I did ask for more info about how AI is "destroying society".
