The argument, I think, is that if AI cannot actually replace these jobs, either other companies will pop up to fill the holes, or they will quickly reverse their position once negative results start coming in.
Sure, you can have all of SalesForce run entirely by AI, but people may just find a better solution that actually works. Claude ran a vending machine after all, but it was deemed a failure.
So yeah, maybe there's a rocky month or two, and I'm not trying to downplay the severity of that...but the demand for the roles these services fulfill will still exist, and become market opportunities
I think it’s more likely that AI will make everyone in a department 25% more efficient. This means a department of 5 people will become a department of 4 people.

Doesn’t really matter why you lost your job though, does it? Especially when the job loss is wide spread.

AI will have taken one person’s job.
