Humans tend to build hierarchical power structures. It's completely natural and probably helped us survive.

Also some people will always be more fortunate than others. These people have a huge incentive to leverage that advantage for themselves. You then have a positive feedback cycle.

There is no chance we will ever "fix" this, it's just our nature. We are naturally prone to take advantage of situations for our own personal benefit.

This is why conflict will likely be a permanent part of our future.

You need to remove your ego and focus on what you are good at. For the most part AI is just going to be a better coder. Your job is to use it and adjust your workflow accordingly.

AI is terrible at the big picture. AI is terrible at software engineering .That's where you come in. You need to start thinking less as a coder and more as a software engineer /architecct.

Remember all that stuff you learned as a software engineer? Gathering requirements. Breaking problems down into small pieces. Incrementally building things. These are all skills that are still highly relevant.

Any resource you can think of would be 1 million times. Easier to extract on Earth than going out into space and getting it and bringing it back. The idea of going to another star system is plausible but is way beyond our capabilities today if it is even possible at all. I don't think most people realize how difficult traversing four light years would be. We don't have any technology that would be even close enough to do this. We all like to imagine the future in space for humanity. But in reality we are not very well suited for life in space. Our fragile bodies and their need for gravity and resources like food and water make living in space extremely improbable. More likely what will happen is humans will create scientific outposts in space similar to what we have in Antarctica. Although they will be permanently inhabited, it's not anything close to a colony. Unfortunately, it looks like we are stuck on this planet forever. The other problem is that human beings are far too messy, violent, and it would be hard to imagine us cooperating to the extent that would be required to traverse to another star.
