Well lets think about this a minute AI is being sold as a way to save tons of money for business with compute power as whole departments and organizations are being cut as people are the biggest expense for business. Now AI was sold at the beginning AI would free up staff to do other things but that is not happening as they found they do not need that staff anymore. Ok what are all these people supposed to do if no jobs are available any more? In China they do not care what happens to their people as if they lost 100 million it would be a blessing as it would be that fewer mouths to feed. Case in point when Reagan sent over a delegation to discuss Nuclear disarmament the Chinese told them they could afford to lose 100 million and would not even notice it. So with all these job losses coming what are you going to do with the massive unemployment created with AI, let them starve and go homeless or what? Overload your Social Services budgets? This AI race is a race we need to think about and freeze any AI development till this is thought out... The Government may be forced to proved a living paycheck to all unemployed compared to what they were earning so what you were trying to avoid in becoming a Communist country may well happen or a real Revolution...
And ultimately, AI is coming whether we like it or not. And if we don't lead the way, China will.
As my doctor told me recently, it isn't that doctors are going to be replaced by AI. It's that doctors who use AI are going to replace doctors who don't.
Here’s another thing to consider.
And we’re about to see massive new hiring in areas people forget about. The power-plant and grid-development sector is gearing up to hire vast numbers of engineers, electricians, construction crews, and technicians just to meet AI’s energy demand. Data centers, chip fabs, cooling systems, and transmission lines all require huge workforces.
AI isn’t eliminating jobs at scale—it’s triggering entire industries that need people.
