If AI is wildly successful and improves significantly beyond current capabilities and takes all of the jobs, the most aggressive adopters will self-terminate. The employers that survive this will not be those who can cut costs the most, but those who are most critical (and that will tend to be something that interfaces with the physical world, less digital). If it comes down to fixing the plumbing leak or Netflix, I guess I’ll be less entertained, or go outside. No amount of cost reduction survives zero revenue when no one has an income.

If AI continues at its current trajectory of being an incrementally improving blog post generator, then the only losers here are the big investors.
