Firstly, is this guy an in any way qualified to talk about AI? If not, I don't see why we should trust him about it; he's just one of the many self-proclaimed experts really knowing nothing about the topic. A few things I think are relevant here:
- AI could only potentially replace cognitive jobs.
- "AI" like ChatGPT is only ruminating on its training data, so it cannot drive innovation, only do jobs where information is already available.
- As with all innovation making human work obsolete, it is only really a bad thing if we allow its benefits to be unevenly distributed.

So, based on any reading of history...it will be a bad thing.
So, based on the extremely high standard of living today, even if we compare to only 100 years ago, it is extremely positive.
extremely high standard of living today
which is still only true for a small proportion of the human population. If anything unevenly distributed applies more today than at anytime in human history.
