A critique of AI 'jobs apocalypse' forecasts
A post argues that dire predictions of AI-driven job losses have not materialized. It cites a 4.1% unemployment figure and attributes a claim that AI created a million jobs to The Economist.
TLDR
A September 28 post argues that earlier warnings of an AI-driven “jobs apocalypse” were overblown. It states that unemployment is 4.1%, cites The Economist as saying AI created a million jobs, and says Anthropic’s chief economist sees skill augmentation rather than job destruction. The author also accuses some of the groups behind the job-loss warnings of shifting to what the author calls an AI-extinction “hoax.”
