The AI industry seems to exist in order to make it possible for there to be value without labor.

And labor makes those AIs, even if it's a separate company. Until AI digs up the resources, builds the machines to do that, makes the computers they run on and writes the software there'll always be a labor factor.

Plus, once AI does all those things, it now pretty much falls into the labor bucket.

There is no value without labor.
