If AI really was the cause, why would a company eliminate people who could use it to multiply output and widen the gap between them and their competitors?

Beyond that, why would you just eliminate half of your staff overnight? That causes massive disruption. You would phase the employees out over some number of months to ensure a smooth transition.
