If human is at, say, 80%, it’s still a win to use AI agents to replace human workers, right? Similar to how we agree to use self driving cars as long as it has less incidents rate, instead of absolute safety

Oh yeah it's a blast for the human workers getting replaced.

It's also amazing for an economy predicated on consumer spending when no one has disposable income anymore.

Hmmm. Depends. Not all unethicals are equal. Automated unethicalness could be a lot more disruptive.
