Comment by Larry Fink
Chairman and CEO of BlackRock
There's a real risk artificial intelligence could widen wealth inequality if ownership does not broaden alongside it. [...] A critical part of the solution is bringing more people into the capital markets—so they can share in the growth already taking place, not just watch it from the sidelines.

Quote attributed to Larry Fink (2026), from his 2026 BlackRock Chairman's Letter to Investors (the source_url). Direct fetch returned HTTP 403, but web search confirmed the quote verbatim from that exact letter: "there's a real risk artificial intelligence could widen wealth inequality if ownership does not broaden alongside it," and his thesis that the solution is bringing more people into capital markets so they "share in future growth" (corroborated by CNN, Fox Business, Fortune, Pensions Expert). Year 2026 is current. Vote "for" on "The economic gains from frontier AI should be shared with every person on Earth" aligns — Fink argues AI's gains must be broadly shared via expanded ownership/market participation rather than concentrated among a few. (His proposals are US-framed, but the supportive direction toward broad sharing is unambiguous.) Verified.
