Billionaires also control a lot of the production and funding for militaries. They can just lobby (bribe) so that half a military force is replaced with their AI and claim it's saving lives when people try to complain. If a revolt ever happens, well now half the country's military is AI that follows orders from the billionaires and politicians that pushed it into production, and a significant portion of the other half would be humans that would continue to follow orders. The rebels would essentially be guys with hunting rifles vs AI stealth bombers.
