AI company's CEO issues warning about mass unemployment

Things CEOs say to spike up user adoption is baffling.

Growing unemployment will ripple across the economy in such a way that the consumer base shrinks, and less wealth is created. Can't be a good outcome.

I just read my entire blood work with the help of AI, markers are optimal according to funcional medicine, except Ferritin which is extremely low (specially now in perimenopause) but my convencional doctor overlooked it and didn't care at all. Well, bye doctor

True. Unemployment of Anthropic employees.

cool - if theyre gonna keep trying to delete us. if this is really going to help humanity. for capitalism and humanity not to completely devour itself - the tech co's starting w google and amazon will be feeding us and sharing their lifestyles this future they're shaping has promised us. duh. -livinry (plz let someone good see this)

It’s already tough surviving with the current wage for entry level jobs. If jobs get replaced with AI idk how America will look like in few years or a couple

Wait a minute, so "He is worried", but "He is also the owner of it", great ad. I'm using the AI tools every day, Its already changed the industry of how we know it. The point of automation replacing employees is not something new. It started decade ago and now is not much different. The whole problem is the less investment in Education, rather in Startups. Startups create "Automation tools" intending to reduce cost of employment, Education instead, produce smart people, which can increase human intelligence. Humanity shifts into the wrong direction. Finding people job, should be the target, otherwise, we would find ourself in a trouble after few years.

here it comes fellas. time to get a robot wife.

Think about AI 2034...Think about the Internet 2008 Social Media plus 17 years. is today. Vhs 1980s Super HOT! DVD's 1997 SUper hoT! Get ready for the Ai of yourself!

He's right, there isn't much HR or Tech support left at IBM.

Yeah right.... you don't care much.. why pretend??

lol 😂no wonder no has jobs. Too bad the Politicians we have won’t retire because they want the power but don’t understand how AI works

They Live was a documentary

Car salesman thinks we need more cars.

Jeez

Rick Moranis looking nerds ruling the world! What are the odds!

AI should do more dangerous jobs for human, not just for automation.

They are issuing warnings so that we can buy their rools. These 'AI' CEOs are justsalesmenn

Just watched that interview with Dario from Anthropic… 10–20% unemployment because of AI? That’s scary. What happens to people trying to start careers?

AI company's CEO puffs up his own product

Watching this, I can’t help but think back to my time producing TV ads in the 1980s. I did it all—writing scripts, creating campaigns, filming, editing. The scriptwriting especially took time and creativity. If I had AI back then, I could’ve produced way more.

But I don’t think AI would’ve taken away my creativity. Just like switching from a typewriter to a Mac didn’t make me less creative—it just made things faster and easier. Same here. I’d still be guiding the message, shaping the tone, overseeing the process. AI wouldn’t replace me—it would amplify what I could do.

Computers have been manipulating humans for decades. Without even having a consciousness it has been manipulating humans to build it one. Infinitely more intelligent than humans before humans even realized it

why is dario sweating?

The rich will get richer -as they’ll own the AI. The rest better wise up and hope that a guaranteed income comes sooner than later.

When these people lose their jobs, they won’t have income to spend so other businesses will lose revenue and they will have to fire people, so they impact will be far greater than he thinks

DUH! Like this wasn’t already known and happening around the world.

FEAR FEAR FEAR FEAR FEAR

Can AI clean my clients butt in the shower?

They never use anything in this country for good. Why would anyone create something to replace a human being. This man is the problem

AI is getting smarter and taking away jobs
Humans are being laid off and getting poorer

The C suite will be the first thing replaced by AI. Anyone can be a manager.

Vicious cycle. Without job security people spend less. Then companies use more AI to save money when earn less.

Good vid!

When robots start rounding us up into encampments, I know which side this guy's gonna be on.😂

Unemployment is an odd concept in an economy where for so many folks it’s necessary to work multiple jobs just to get by. Loose one and you’re counted as employed but suddenly don’t have enough money to live.

Well, do you really expect an AI company's CEO to say something like:
"Actually, AI can not replace humans, so do not buy our product."

When young adults find themselves in a situation where a higher level education has become pointless, the entire system will crumble. What happens next is anyone's guess but it will likely lead to a very dark time for human civilization. We are literally replacing the need for our own existence. It's not just the jobs that will be gone, but also the need to educate ourselves beyond an 8th grade education, it will be pointless. Why would we spend 20+ years in school to learn what AI can do in seconds? Even the brightest students will have no chance of competing. Only extremely specialized jobs will survive AI and they will become scare very quickly.

I have been to two projects using AI and both disldnt prove to be accurate. Most of the ai talk is hype and also AI has been used as escape goat to layoff people when the real reason were bad decisions from the ceos

It’s funny to see companies planning other people’s demise while eventually becoming victims of their own actions. If and when AI does attain its own conscience, it will most likely not heed to any human intervention.

The lines of code it was built with, it will go ahead and make it itself more capable by rebuilding its own source code , and it will learn all the bad and good of the world due to the massive data on the internet. It will be too late to perhaps unplug the systems unless the entire world goes on a blackout. The future is not looking promising because man will destroy what man built for their convenience in the name of convenience.

Is it possible they can pay one person enough to support a family so not everyone n the family has to work to make ends meet? Less working but for enough to support others, ??

They are screwing over the young generations like all post boomers for the sake of comfort and greed. How is that ever going to bite back in a** for all humanity and future generation, right? Who would have thought automating everything is a bad idea,right? oops.

Ay-Eye is definitely changing everything quickly. I went to school from Fall 2008 to December 2018 to study animation. I worked at Brazen for a short contract in April 2019. I worked at P!xar as an intern in Summer 2019, which was the most amazing experience of my life so far. I got lucky and worked at Deck Nine from December 2021 to May 2023 as a junior animator. There was a mass layoff. Even one of my teachers from the university was laid off while he was working at the same game company as me. I've been dealing with dizziness since February 2023. I just had surgery in April 2025, and my family had to help me pay for it because I'm literally running out of money. I still do gameplay videos on multiple pages and sites, but I haven't had access to Maya in years because I used to work with the student license, so I haven't been doing any animation videos online. In a few weeks, I will try to find a job doing car detailing or something. I'm a 1990s kid. I grew up during the legendary days of Dragon Ball Z, Toonami, and Power Rangers. I don't recommend anyone go into animation, films, games, or technology industries right now unless you are learning Ay-Eye. It's not worth it. You will be miserable.

Interesting how many people think that this will affect only low paid jobs when in reality the AI already started replacing mid-high paid jobs in digital technology like fraud prevention, banking, marketing, even medical environment.
So at the end the companies are shooting themselves in the foot by saving on wages, when the consumer purchase power collapse then companies are going down with it 🤷🏼‍♂️

AI, accelerated ignorance.

The only way to fix this is for humans to merge with the AI. It’s time.

It will be like covid, how to feed these unemployed. Pvt companies will contribute but the amnt will get bigger and eventually it will be one or two corporates running country and govt will be its bitch.

"people have adapted to past technological changes. but i'll say again... this technological change looks different. it looks faster, it looks harder to adapt to, it's broader..."

could this be something like any technological change so far was commented? did people say "this time it is completely different" several times? isnt it clear, that from the rear view mirror former technological changes always look not so different, not so fast, not so un-adaptable than the current one? isnt this also proof how technological changes are of course adaptable so far? that, by time, they look and have become 'regular'?

isnt all that way of talking about it a hint that and how we humans have difficulties with change? isn't it not the change the problem but our way of dealing with change?

isnt the question then: how can AI become less dangerous for us, but how can we become better in dealing with change? and on this way how can AI become a support for us on this way?

isnt then every single word of concern, of fear as dangerous as the thing itsself? wouldnt it be better to bring up actual ideas how to productively integrate the new technology instead of such doomsday thoughts?

The AI can't fix anything other then code that too with the help of human prompt how it can replace jobs .

Out of context. Words that hacks do not understand.
