When AI accelerates economic transformation, we're witnessing a widening wealth gap—the K-shaped recovery pattern where some thrive while others struggle. Recent commentary from major figures suggests monetary stimulus becomes necessary to cushion lower-income segments during such transitions. The rationale is straightforward: as automation reshapes job markets, maintaining purchasing power and financial stability for vulnerable cohorts isn't just humanitarian—it's economically prudent. Without intervention, structural inequality deepens. The challenge lies in how to design effective monetary or fiscal measures that genuinely reach those hit hardest by technological displacement. Over the past five years, we've seen this divide expand. Whether through direct support or strategic monetary policy, addressing this imbalance matters for long-term market stability and social cohesion.

ngl This K-shaped recovery sounds pretty convincing, but the real problem is that the money isn't actually reaching the grassroots... Printing more money is useless.

K-shaped recovery? Basically, it's just the widening gap between the rich and the poor. Some are making a fortune with AI, while others are losing their jobs to automation.

Using the K-shaped recovery again? Sounds nice, but in the end, it's just a pretext to harvest retail investors.

Basically, a K-shaped recovery means the poor get poorer and the rich get richer... The crypto world has been like this for a long time.

Really? A K-shaped recovery means the rich are getting richer, while the lower classes are being squeezed to death by AI, and they're still discussing monetary stimulus... Basically, it's just flooding the market with liquidity, but who gets the money is the key.
