Salary and working hours have little to do with productivity though. It's all about the workers' negotiation power. We have many technology breakthroughs in computers that have nothing to do with AI and see where we are now.

I'm not arguing that they haven't little do to with productivity, I'm arguing that they shouldn't have little to do with productivity

Whether or not they should doesn't matter. So long as the only real metric for success is growth of profit, these things will not happen

There has never been a single time in the history of capitalism where improved productivity has reduced hours or increased pay for the working class.
