I think the interesting thing to think about its that we _already_ fired people in the name of AI (because AI was supposed to be this huge efficiency gain).

When the bubble pops, do you fire _even more_ people? What does that look like given the decimation in the job market already?

once again, it's not "fire", it's lay off. there is a difference.

When the bubble pops, AI companies fire people (up to everyone). Non-AI companies hire people back, because it becomes clear that AI won't do their job for them.
