AI is not inherently evil. The issue is that those with money and power are primarily interested in using it to exploit others for financial gain. Tech oligarchs struggle to envision and create a future where everyone thrives because they value money above all else, and therefore, only view human beings as capital.
Your post makes some interesting assumptions about human interaction. Our need for human interaction goes beyond economics. One of the greatest risk factors for dementia is a limited social network. We are not meant to be lone wolves by any stretch. Most people have empathy and do not approach relationships from a purely transactional perspective. If people received UBI and universal healthcare, then no one would care if AI made their livelihoods obsolete. Not working is only hardship because people cannot feed or house themselves without income.
