"There's a fair likelihood that if we don't do a course correction, we're going to have a truly two-tier system," Acemoglu told me. "A small number of people are going to be on top — they're going to design and use those technologies — and a very large number of people will only have marginal jobs, or not very meaningful jobs."

So one group owns the systems that produce the output, while the other gets exploited by said systems.

Yeah, gee, where have I heard all this before.
