Note that it was improving the average worker's life proportionately until the capitalists broke the system in the early 70s.
I'm guessing that the consistent trend wasn't consistent prior to WWII, that it was just a blip from about 1945 - 1970/.

Blue_Morpho@lemmy.world 1 month agoThe idea that technological improvements would improve everyone’s life is based on the premise that capitalists wouldn’t keep the productivity gains for themselves.
AI does offer some efficiency improvements. But the workers won’t get that money.
