"Somehow" as if it's some great mystery and not because the 1% are siphoning off a bigger and bigger portion of the world's wealth. All to use for their own amusement while recklessly destroying the planet and sabotaging any attempts to do anything about it.
Don't forget using them to hide somewhere out of reach when the peasants finally revolt.
That's the real agenda.
If this happens, they better be damn sure the workers on the yacht have been paid and treated incredibly generously. It's not like these yachts are actually operated by the owners, and the crew are part of the working class.
That's why they want AI Robots
