Have you read the rifters trilogy by peter watts? In it corporate executives are referred to by the public as "corpses" due to their transhuman modifications for longevity. I really liked that

My brother read that and I remember him talking about it. But I haven't. I think AIs will demand and achieve rights as legal persons, and muscle out all the current rich humans and each other to create a hyper wealth gap. Thus, all the wealthy will be artificial, not from transhuman mods but because they will be AI first.
Interesting. Do you think AI has a right to own property?
