Will AI progress result in a concentration or diffusion of power?

Will AI progress result in a concentration or diffusion of political and economic power? And why?

Concentration unless there is a revolt/ pressure of some kind. Rewards go to capital and ownership of resources.

Well if robots take over the world I would definitely say concentration

It levels the playing field. The means of production becomes cheaper and more widely available allowing smaller companies, groups and nations to take advantage.

Diffusion. Look at what Google did to AI. It made Gemini a stupid, racist caricature. No one will look at this this fiasco and think: we should trust a few big .coms with this responsibility.
