More productivity might translate into more revenue, but more productivity doesn't necessarily create more wealth.

For example, if I'm a landlord that uses AI to more intelligently price rental increases to maximize profit without attrition, I have created more revenue but not more wealth.

Wealth creation happens in positive sum games. Wealth destruction happens in negative sum games. Winners and losers are decided in zero sum games.

Play positive sum games.
