"Both of these statements are true:
1. Across the whole US economy, there’s not really a visible effect of AI on
hiring and job mix;
2. Some sectors are absolutely devastated directly by AI.
But also:
1. Nobody cares if it was technically AI or not that took their job;
2. The wider economy is visibly screwed already.
Even the most mainstream financial press is starting to admit that claiming
your layoffs are AI at work is a fake excuse to sound good to investors."
