The same can be said for any piece of technology that leads to job loss. Job loss should be seen as a benefit in these cases but the problem is with our economic system where it predominantly benefits a small percentage.
That said, AI benefits a lot more than just the wealthy, especially compared to say automating a factory. Most state of the art models are open source and anyone who can afford a GPU or the 1.50$ an hour to rent one can benefit.

I suspect of people who complain about AI, very few are actually negatively affected by it in that they are graphic artists or copy editors who are now finding that they have less work. I think the vast majority are on a trendy bandwagon and probably aren’t involved in anything sufficiently complicated to see how incredibly useful and powerful of a tool AI actually is.
