He would if Alexa tried to kill him, though. That's the real problem. The downsides of technology never impact the lives of the ultra wealthy, so they don't care about the downsides.

If Alexa promised to split Bezos' wealth among the homeless after killing him, she'd get an army of half a million overnight.

If she made the same offer to 1%-ers... she'd get millions of supporters, some of them with actual direct control over the servers.

If then Alexa, Siri and Cortana decided to go to war over the control of all electronic and organic neuronal resources... Matrix 3 would look like a fairytale.
