CMV: By 2026, job losses from AI will be major news. By 2030, unemployment will threaten the whole economic system.
I don't know how far into the future I want to try and predict, but 2026 and 2030? Are you aware that we're currently more than halfway through 2025. What exactly do you expect to happen in the next 5 months? You give this anecdote about your friend and their job search, but that's happening now. But are we seeing any major rise in unemployment levels? Do you think your friend is never going to find another job? I think they probably will! There's lots of jobs out there. That could change eventually, but I think the time frame is going to be a lot longer than you're implying here. More on reddit.com

Even worse, while some companies aren’t outright admitting it, others have been partaking in mass layoffs, leading many to wonder if the post-AI employment market is a whole lot grimmer than CEOs are willing to reveal.
