I think OP is talking about the downstream implications of productivity growth. Which is still yet hypothetical.

AI is designed to funnel productivity growth away from workers (less labor, downward pressure on remaining jobs) and to shareholders

so not only is it hypothetical but if it becomes a reality (which seems probable), it is highly destructive to the average person

The downstream portion isn't proven, and more importantly, even if it was, it's not localized to where the data center is built (and its effect on the local population).
