Tom Lee, Chairman of Bitmine, stated in an interview that AI is approaching the so-called "uncanny valley of wealth." At some point in the future, the revenue generated by an individual's AI agent could surpass the income from their own labor.
Tom Lee believes that when this moment arrives, people may begin to question "whether they are working for AI, or if AI is working for them." He also predicts that in the future, AI agents could take over bank accounts, replace some job roles, and even build an independent financial system, candidly noting that this trend "might make people fearful of the future."
